Why did Kylie Jenner get plastic surgery? Uncover the truth now

Don’t we all wish we could turn our insecurities into multi-million dollar industries? Well, that’s exactly what Kylie Jenner said she did! In the recent Keeping Up With the Kardashians reunion, Kylie opened up about what started her passion for makeup which led to her successful cosmetics company.

However, while discussing the origins of the famous Kylie Lip Kit, the celebrity also opened up on why she had plastic surgery in her teens. From insecurity to hurtful comments, Kylie Jenner finally told the world the reasoning for her insane plastic surgery transformation!

Kylie Jenner’s successful makeup line

In 2015, Kylie launched her own cosmetic line featuring a hype-inducing lipstick. This launch happened only a few months after revealing that she had indeed gotten lip fillers despite initially denying all plastic surgery rumors.

Kylie’s lip products sold out the first 15,000 products in under a minute! Ever since then, Kylie has been running a successful cosmetic business and keeping the cash flowing. Perhaps it’s clear this success wouldn’t have occurred if the young star had never undergone plastic surgery and enhanced her lips. Yet, why did she get lip fillers when she was only seventeen?

Kylie Jenner opens up about her previous insecurities  

On the reunion special for Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Kylie revealed how her insecurities about her lips started her passion for makeup. “For sure. My love for makeup started with my insecurity with my lips,” Kylie stated. 

She continued, “I had really small lips, and I didn’t ever think about it until I had one of my first kisses and a guy said to me, ‘Oh my god, you’re such a good kisser, but you have such small lips,’ or something like that. From then on, I felt unkissable.”

“I had an insecurity because this guy said something to me one time,” she added. “Then I got an obsession with makeup because I would overline my lips and it just made me feel confident.”

Kylie has previously stated in an episode of Life of Kylie, “I just didn’t feel desirable or pretty. I really wanted bigger lips. I would overline my lips with lip liner just to create the illusion of bigger lips — and then finally I was like, this lip liner isn’t doing it. I ended up getting my lips done.”

What about the rest of Kylie’s plastic surgery procedures?

Although she explained the reasoning for her lip fillers, what about her other plastic surgery operations? After looking at before & after photos of the celebrity, it’s clear she has undergone more than just lip fillers. From other facial procedures to breast augmentation to butt enhancement, the star has definitely gone under the knife more than once. 

Kylie Jenner has denied all rumors about her getting breast implants. She has previously stated that her newly enlarged breasts are due to her purchasing a Victoria’s Secret bra. Kylie has said, “Everyone thinks I’ve gotten a breast augmentation recently and I haven’t.” 

She adds, “I just use the ‘Bombshell’ by Victoria’s Secret—it’s life-changing. I’ve gotten all my sisters on it, all my friends and if you ever want the look of bigger breasts, that’s what I do.”

However, plastic surgeon Dr Giannitrapani has explained why he thinks otherwise. “There is a clear size increase to Kylie’s breasts,” he said. “Although they are not out of proportion with her frame, they have the characteristics of a breast enlargement in the early stages of healing and look as though they still need time to settle.”

“If she intended on keeping the procedure a secret, the surgeon will have gone for an implant size to suit her frame and for the result to look as natural as possible whilst still creating the volume increase she desired.”
