Reality tv super star Kim Kardashian would go to the opening of an envelope in order to be photographed, hence she has been seen all over at Fashion Week. Her makeup is less over the top than in the past and she is being photographed more because of that fact.
In December, there were rumors that Kim had some facial plastic surgery on her nose. I believe that she changed her makeup (no more heavy eye makeup or nude lipstick) to draw attention away from the speculation. I believe she slightly shaved the tip of her nose, took out her lip implants (compare her upper lip before and after), and got facial fillers (she has lost weight and her face started looking just slightly drawn).
Without the hooker makeup, she’s an attractive girl and the new tweaks to her appearance are fine. However, given her ample funds and leisure time, she may get a emotional high from her new look and start looking for other things to change. There lies the danger in this case, because if she keeps tweaking, she’ll look like the Bride of Wildenstein at 40. If she stops the tinkering now, she’ll be fine.

Not sure I agree with this. Her lips look the same to me and so does her nose. BUT: she seems to very clearly have cheek implants now, and it actually looks great! Her face was oblong before and now it’s more heart shaped.
February 19th, 2009 - 5:31 pm
i see cheek implants
February 19th, 2009 - 7:50 pm
Oh my goodness. It might just be the makeup, but she looks 300% better.
February 20th, 2009 - 12:10 am
She totally enhanced her cheeks but I think she just stopped getting her upper lip plumped. Her nose looks smaller because her cheeks are more sculpted, no rhinoplasty. She looks hotter.
February 21st, 2009 - 1:55 pm
She looks amazing.
February 21st, 2009 - 6:02 pm
Yep. It’s the cheeks.
February 22nd, 2009 - 11:23 am
She had cheek implants. She looks better with bangs, softens her look.
February 22nd, 2009 - 10:53 pm
She is a naturally pretty girl, the makeup and outfits makes her look awful, like a washed up porn star! She should tone down on the lips. She looks good in the second photo.
February 23rd, 2009 - 10:20 am
Looks like cheek implants to me.
February 23rd, 2009 - 3:30 pm
She looks… exactly like her mom! You should do a side-by-side. Perhaps that is the look she’s going for?
February 23rd, 2009 - 3:39 pm
She looks like she had cheek implants done, they’re too full and sculpted to be just facial fillers. I don’t think she ever had lip implants, she’s just not going as heavy on the restylane as she used to. I actually like her old face better, her new face looks really fat.
February 23rd, 2009 - 9:44 pm
She looks a lot less ethnic and a lot more white.
February 24th, 2009 - 11:26 am
I agree with ohyeah—her cheek enhancements makes her nose look smaller, and she just stopped getting lip fillers. And she looks SO much better now!!
February 24th, 2009 - 9:56 pm
uhh am i the only person that thinks she looked better before?? i think before, she looked really sexy in a very EXOTIC kind of way, but now she just looks soooo much older and very average
February 28th, 2009 - 5:52 am
I disagree she “looks better” as so many here say. Better than what? Looking ethnic? Is it better to look blander? I think she was a total knockout before, absolutely stunning…now she’s starting to look like a lot of other Hollywood chicks, and quite frankly if you put them in a lineup with her now, I’d be hard pressed to tell the difference between them. I wish she would stop lying about all the things she’s had done, when it’s so obviously true. Nobody really cares, but the denials create more speculation, and of course more publicity.
February 28th, 2009 - 9:05 pm
I am not a fan of hers but think she looks beautiful before and after.
March 2nd, 2009 - 6:51 pm
She DOES look better. In the first and second set of photos (here), she looks a LOT like her MOM.
Zam, by “better” it’s implied that we mean “better than BEFORE.”
March 4th, 2009 - 11:08 pm
She definitely had cheek implants and I think she looked prettier and younger before. She’s already pretty and shouldn’t mess around with her face like that; it’s not needed at all but I think she got too much time and money on her hand so…
March 6th, 2009 - 7:07 pm
Her nose was small to begin with, why did anything have to be done? And as for her face looking “fat”? PLEASE tell me you’re kidding… the change of makeup/hair is wonderful.

taken before oscars 2009.
she looks weirder.
March 9th, 2009 - 3:48 pm
She looks very different. It may be cheek implants. Can’t quite put my finger on it.
March 10th, 2009 - 4:08 pm
Personally I think she started having surgery LONG before any of these pictures, the before pictures I think are post surgery and then I think she had more tons more.
March 10th, 2009 - 4:37 pm
I think the toned down look is fine for the day. But I personally luv the make-uo for nite, she knows what look good on her. She shouldn’t try to look like everone else.
she has simply loss some fat from her face.
I luv the cheeks they r not implants.
u can do amazing things w/ the right make-up artist.
March 11th, 2009 - 4:09 am
Hey Tracey, “we” implies you speak for everyone else here, and I’m sure you don’t. No, thank me later.
March 14th, 2009 - 3:25 pm
Kim has gotten something FOR SURE. It’s either rhino or cheek implants. Or maybe both??
March 14th, 2009 - 3:26 pm
And I think she was prettier in 2006.
March 17th, 2009 - 6:17 am
i think she’s just lost weight. somewhere between 15 to 20 lbs. She’s a lot skinnier now (and is apparently releasing a work out video)
March 21st, 2009 - 11:47 am
her nose looks the same..her cheeks look better and fuller though
March 22nd, 2009 - 9:20 pm
CHECK OUT THE 06 PICTURE ON THE TOP LEFT. DO YOU SEE THE LITTLE CROSS ABOUT ONE INCH INTO HER HAIRLINE? IT IS HORIZONTALLY CROSSING OVER HER PART. THIS IS EVIDENCE OF A BROWLIFT. THE INCISIONS ARE PLACED IN THE HAIRLINE TO CONCEAL SCARRING. I’M A SURGICAL NURSE AND I’VE SCRUBBED IN ON DOZENS OF THESE CASES. SORRY KIM, BUSTED!
March 23rd, 2009 - 7:43 pm
she used to have really nasty groves around the sides of her mouth. now they’re gone.
March 30th, 2009 - 5:11 am
People, seriously, she looks like a cross-dressing hooker.
At least full body shots take the focus off her face, but these close ups are scary, scary stuff.
Applying makeup with a trowel doesn’t enhance – or hide – the face ladies, at any age.
Yet another over-hyped, superfluous celebutard, famous for nothing.
Stop being brainwashed. Just because the gossip mags tell you she’s beautiful doesn’t mean she is.
April 10th, 2009 - 6:39 am
She has always been a beautiful girl with a real figure. I can’t blame her for getting breast implants for balancing out her hips to look balanced. The shame here is she’s beautiful naturally and this is bound to just be the start of a career of adjustments. The problem is when you are comparing yourself to hollywood where everyone is doing it…the norm is skewed and you end up being older and looking far from natural. She’s definitely gotten cheek implants. You can see it clearly in pics that are farther away from her face.
April 14th, 2009 - 10:39 pm
I completely agree with your assessment. She looks great, her face is very well balanced now. Who ever did the work, did a fabulous job, a true artist. I just wish I’d know his name and Kim would stop denying that she had cosmetic procedures done because she had quite a few.
April 14th, 2009 - 10:51 pm
I would also like to add that I believe this was not Kim’s first nose job. If you Google “Kim Kardasian Disney Flashback”, a photo of Kim at age 19 posted by her sister Khloe – link won’t allow the comment to post – clearly shows a very different nose.
April 30th, 2009 - 12:45 am
If you compare pics of Kim from early March ‘09 or earlier with pics taken all of April ‘09, Kim also had liposuction on her knees.
May 21st, 2009 - 4:56 pm
she’s a pretty girl. her 2008 picture is by far the prettiest picture of her I’ve ever seen. Now her face looks a little harsh, but she’s still beautiful!
May 22nd, 2009 - 12:06 pm
She pretty even before the recent photos, just an improved version of herself.
Saw her makeup video on her blog and she was putting on some lipstick, her lips looks so… grotesque up close! But it looks fine when not.
Advice to Kim, no more close up shots of your lips!
June 13th, 2009 - 10:40 am
I think the main differences are from different facial expression, haircut (bangs), and softer makeup. She is gorgeous!!
June 23rd, 2009 - 5:52 pm
I knew she had plenty of surgery done to her body. Hello people haven’t you ever seen Doctor 90210? Its called a brazillian fat transfer to the booty!! Breasts=fake! Hollywood messes people up! But the sadest part to me is to see these pictures of her face. She did look different to me lately and above is the proof in the pudding. She had a beautiful face before that was slightly enhanced with fillers. Now she is turning into a manequin with all signs of those beautiful ethnic features being washed away by the mainstream pressures of American society. Remember all those stupid blogs and magazine columns she wrote about how plastic surgery is bad? Come on Kim you were beautiful before don’t let stupid, unrealistic, never relenting pressures ruin you missy. If only she were reading or had someone to help her accept herself for who she is. Stay away from LA and Hollywood Kim…stop before it is too late!!
October 24th, 2009 - 5:52 pm
she definitely has had a nose job and lip injections, but there are no cheek implants, and the nose job was before BOTH of these photos. in the after picture, she very clearly has highlighter down her nose and has completely different makeup.
November 25th, 2009 - 10:38 am
Are you people blind????!!!! Kim looked 1000% better before having anything done to her face. She looks like a plastic barbie doll now. I thought she was beautiful before, but now she looks UGLY! Why would you intentionally make yourself look like that?? Your cheeks, nose and lips look weird now. You vaguely resemble Daisy Duck! You should have left yourself alone! If you’re reading this…shame on you!!
December 21st, 2009 - 11:39 pm
Why wasn’t her old high school photos used as comparison?
When her nose took up 1/2 her face & she had no boobs???
Now that was ‘pre-plastic surgery’!
December 22nd, 2009 - 4:46 pm
So I think she has had cheek implants, tons of botox, nose job, face fillers, still has lips done but less and I would say an eye lift! She looks like a creep! I used to think she was soo pretty now I just think she looks like some scray maniquene!
December 22nd, 2009 - 4:48 pm
Look at old pics she had a nose job before 2006! Has had more than one done!
