Kim Kardashian's New Look -- Plumped Up Pout!

http://www.radaronline.com/sites/radaronline.com/files/imagecache/350width/SPLITspl170068006.jpgKim Kardashian is once again surrounded by plastic surgery rumors, after stepping out in Los Angeles this week, with a much puffier pout. Though the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star has adamantly denied all nip-and-tuck -- minus her on-air Botox mishap -- some new photos of Kim’s seemingly larger lips have lips everywhere flapping.

Radar Online took the startling before-and-after photos to a panel of experts, to weigh in on Kim’s plumped-up pout.

“It certainly appears she had lip augmentation based on the size and shape of her lips in the picture,” says Dr. Andrew Elkwood, M.D. of The Plastic Surgery Center in New Jersey.

“It could have been done via temporary means like injectables or something more permanent -- you can’t tell just by looking. You would have to wait a few months to be sure either way.”

“Yes, it certainly looks like Ms. Kardashian has plumped up her lips,” agrees Dr. Harry T. Haramis, M.D., FACS of the Sleek Surgical & MedSpa in NYC. “Both the upper and lower lips look markedly enhanced.”

Dr. Haramis believes that the reality TV star used a dermal filler, most likely Juvaderm, to achieve the look.

Lovely C. Laban, ARNP, MSN, who specializes in aesthetic injectables at her clinic Skin by Lovely in Santa Monica, California and also teaches physicians across the U.S. advanced techniques on the use of these products, agrees that Kim’s lips are larger.

“Kim seems to now have more plumpness in the volume of her lips,” the expert tells Radar.

“Based on what I see in this photo it is quite possible that Kim's aesthetic health care provider used a product like Juvederm or Restylane to achieve this. Kim may also have a small amount of Botox along her upper lip to help elevate it and create a shorter space between her nose and lip.”
