Celebs Who Transformed Their Careers with Plastic Surgery

As the youngest member of a famous reality TV clan, Kylie Jenner’s journey through adolescence—with all its awkward moments and evolving styles—was witnessed by a vast audience. Over the years, she emerged as a prominent figure in Hollywood, becoming a beauty entrepreneur with Kylie Cosmetics. However, her ascent wasn’t solely attributed to her family’s fame. The turning point came at 17 when speculation surrounding her noticeably fuller lips sparked widespread discussion online, transforming her from the little sister into a trendsetter. By 2016, Jenner openly acknowledged her lip fillers on her personal app, stating, “I’m not against plastic surgery… but at the moment, I only have lip fillers. That said, I believe in keeping an open mind.”

Following the birth of her two children and a battle with postpartum depression, Jenner revisited her past choices regarding cosmetic surgery. In an interview featured in British Vogue’s “Big Fashion Issue,” she expressed regret over her decision to get breast implants at 19. “I wish I had never done that in the first place,” Jenner admitted. “I advise anyone considering it to wait until after having children.” She also shared her struggles with the immense pressure to “make the right choices” while growing up, reflecting on the heavy scrutiny and expectations that accompany fame. “I can’t imagine who I would have been without all this attention on me,” she poignantly shared.
