Kris Jenner is not letting rumors about her face go unchecked. The Kardashian matriarch has directly denied claims that she is unhappy with her reported $100,000 facelift, calling the story a “flat out lie” and defending her surgeon, Dr. Steven Levine. The 70-year-old reality star addressed the speculation during an appearance on Khloé Kardashian’s podcast, Khloé in Wonder Land. Jenner said the headlines claiming she was “mad as hell” about her facelift allegedly “slipping” were completely false and insisted that she is still thrilled with the results. She also said she “adores” Levine and described him as an “artist.”
The rumors began after reports claimed Jenner was upset that her facelift had not held up one year after surgery and was allegedly considering a revision. The same reports suggested she was comparing herself to other celebrities who have recently been praised for their refreshed appearances, including Denise Richards and Lori Loughlin.
Jenner said what bothered her most was not just the gossip about her own face, but the fact that her doctor was being blamed publicly. She made it clear that she was speaking up because she felt the story was hurting someone else’s reputation, not because she wanted to fuel more conversation about her appearance.
Her denial comes after she openly discussed the procedure last year in Vogue Arabia. At the time, Jenner said she had previously undergone a facelift around 15 years earlier and felt it was time for a refresh. She explained that for her, cosmetic surgery was part of feeling like the best version of herself, adding that everyone should define aging gracefully in their own way.
The facelift first became a major topic of conversation in 2025, when Jenner appeared in public looking noticeably refreshed and many fans compared her to her daughter Kim Kardashian. Kim even jokingly endorsed the transformation on social media, posting a shirt that read, “I’ll have what Kris Jenner is having.”
Recent attention around celebrity plastic surgery has kept the conversation alive. Denise Richards recently shared her own facelift results and praised the decision as one of the best things she had done for herself, while Lori Loughlin has drawn attention for her youthful appearance, though she has not publicly confirmed any procedure.
For Jenner, the issue seems simple. She is not angry, she is not seeking a revision, and she is not blaming her surgeon. According to her, the claims are false, and she remains happy with the work she has done.
