Kris Jenner\u2019s facelift<\/strong>: So, we meet again.<\/p>\n Let me first acknowledge the eyerolls and criticism that this story may inspire and clearly state that I, too, think we are spending entirely too much time discussing this woman\u2019s face. But over the past few days, it\u2019s been impossible to ignore the renewed frenzy around Jenner\u2019s current appearance and how she (and nearly every plastic surgeon on social) may or may not feel about it. And as a journalist covering the plastic surgery beat, well, here I am. So what\u2019s behind the hullabaloo? A report from Radar, which reads: \u201cA source close to Jenner told us, \u2018Kris Jenner\u2019s facelift is already slipping. She is not happy with the results and is desperate to get a revision\u2014she feels it has not held the way she expected.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n Is this true? Who knows? (Only Jenner and her surgeon, that\u2019s who.) Still, plastic surgeons have been quick to post their various takes on Jenner\u2019s alleged dissatisfaction. Some have criticized the SMAS facelift that Jenner supposedly received, suggesting the procedure doesn\u2019t hold up as well as the deep plane facelift. Others have called these kinds of public jabs \u201ca bad look\u201d for the field, noting how they discourage transparency and erode patient trust.<\/p>\n Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Charles Galanis, MD, posted in his stories that he heard \u201cfrom a very reliable source that this [Jenner rumor] is actually not true and the celebrity in question didn\u2019t express this.\u201d He went on to say, \u201cThe number of people I\u2019ve seen gleefully hopping on social media platforms to knock down the surgeon or knock down the cost or knock down the technique, it doesn\u2019t sit right with me. I just think as a collective, we can do more to prop each other up or educate the masses in a positive way, without having to step on someone else to do it.\u201d I\u2019m writing with this in mind. We should operate under the assumption that the Jenner news is hearsay and that any related chatter is utter speculation.<\/p>\n
