Kris Jenner has strongly denied recent rumours suggesting she regrets her facelift, calling the claims “a flat out lie” during an appearance on the podcast Khloe in Wonder Land, hosted by Khloé Kardashian.

In the episode released on April 29, 2026, Jenner addressed ongoing online speculation about her appearance and cosmetic procedures, stating that the reports circulating on social media “couldn’t be further from the truth.” She also praised her surgeon, Dr. Steven Levine, describing him as “one of the most talented, amazing men” she has ever worked with.

Jenner explained that she even contacted Dr. Levine after online discussions about her facelift began gaining traction, suggesting they coordinate a way to manage public inquiries. According to Jenner, the doctor later agreed to use a referral password system to verify legitimate consultations stemming from her recommendation.

The reality star and business mogul said she decided to speak publicly not because she is affected by criticism, but because she wanted to protect her surgeon’s reputation. “It’s really hurting someone else,” she said, adding that she has “pretty thick skin” when it comes to public scrutiny.

Jenner, known for her role in managing the Kardashian-Jenner brand and family empire, emphasised her admiration for Dr. Levine’s work, stating that she believes he is “a genius” in his field.

The comments come amid continued public fascination with celebrity cosmetic procedures and the Kardashian family’s influence on beauty standards and media culture. Jenner’s remarks appear aimed at shutting down speculation while reinforcing her support for her medical team and personal choices.
