It’s no secret that the Kardashian-Jenner family is a fan of plastic surgery and cosmetic procedures.

While they’ve only admitted to a few touch-ups – including Botox and breast augmentations – fans have pointed out for years how much their appearances have changed over time.

Most recently, Kris Jenner made headlines for how refreshed and taut her skin was looking – and People even confirmed she had aesthetic enhancements done by a plastic surgeon.

Just days later, the world is now shining a spotlight on Kim Kardashian‘s rumored procedures – and it’s all because of a throwback picture.

Kim, now 44, recently posted a snapshot to Instagram of her around the age of 13, smiling and holding a nail brush.

The photo is captioned ‘1993’ followed by a camera emoji and then ‘Linds,’ most likely referring to her childhood friend Lindsay May who passed in early 2025 due to cancer.

And while many people pointed out Kim’s ‘natural beauty’ from a young age, others were quick to point out how much her face has changed, especially amid speculation she has undergone the knife for multiple facial procedures – something plastic surgeons have suggested as well.

‘Wow… I never realized how much work you’ve had done,’ one Instagram user commented on the snap. ‘Beautiful either way but wow!’

Kim has admitted to Botox but has denied any butt implants or nose job

‘More proof that you’re a natural beauty,’ another wrote.

But others were harsher about the alleged changes she has made to her face.

‘Natural beauty. Never needed work done,’ one user wrote.

‘I genuinely can’t understand why the f**k Kardashians got surgeries done, they were literally naturally beauties,’ another added.

One person even commented: ‘Kim jacked up her face big time. She was naturally pretty… now a days the whole family is unrecognizable.’

‘Much prettier in her natural face,’ someone else added.

In December of 2024, Kim posted a different throwback, featuring her smiling in a photo booth picture from the 1990s.

People shared similar sentiments about her facial procedures then too, saying that she didn’t need to get change her face.

Many fans slammed Kim for getting ‘work done’ despite already having ‘natural beauty’

The Kardashian family has a longstanding history with being coy about their procedures.

Kylie Jenner has admitted to getting breast augmentation and lip fillers, Khloe said she got a nose job and ‘some injections,’ Kourtney revealed she had a boob job as well as some non-surgical ‘contouring and lifting,’ and Kendall maintains she’s never touched her face.

Fans have speculated that the family has done much more.

And despite the backlash, this doesn’t seem to be changing anytime soon.

It’s likely that Kim will follow in her mother’s footsteps and try her best to keep herself looking young as she gets older – especially considering the fact that in 2022 she told Allure: ‘I really, genuinely care about looking good.’
