I like expression on a face."

Kylie Jenner: Good make-up

She was forced to admit she’d had lip fillers at the tender age of 17 after previously insisting her plump pout was the result of clever lip liner and simply growing older. But Kylie Jenner, 21 – who has also sparked reports of chin, nose and boob jobs, plus a Brazilian butt lift – recently claimed her changing looks were mainly down to her make-up and hair team. She said, "People think I fully went under the knife and completely reconstructed my face, which is completely false. I’m terrified. I would never. They don’t understand what good hair and make-up and, like, fillers, can really do."

Surgeon Mark Ho-Asjoe says, "Kylie’s bust appears much fuller, so I believe she’s had a boob job. Her chin looks a lot smaller, so I think she could have had the bone shaved down."

Kim Kardashian: Motherhood

The reality star looks hugely different since she first found fame on Keeping Up With The Kardashians in 2007. And while she’s remained tight-lipped on reports of a Brazilian butt lift to boost her infamous behind, Kim, 38, was keen to shoot down rumours she’d had a nose job, after fans noticed it appeared to have reduced in size over the years. The mum of three – who has five-year-old daughter North, three-year-old Saint, and one-year-old daughter Chicago – recently insisted her transformed nose was down to pregnancy. She said, "I never had my nose done. I said wait until I have kids, because your real features come out."

Surgeon Mark Ho-Asjoe says, "Pregnancy would not make a person’s nose thinner or change its tip. Kim’s nose has become straighter and more defined, and I believe this is the work of a nose job."

Lauren Goodger: Weight training

The former TOWIE star has been open about having a nose job, boob job and regular Botox and fillers since shooting to fame in 2010. But Lauren has always insisted her larger-than-life behind is down to working hard in the gym. The 32-year-old – who sparked suspicion she’d had a Brazilian butt lift when she was pictured holding a cushion to sit down on shortly after jetting back from Turkey – recently said, actually love it when people don’t believe me. I don’t even think it looks like I have [had a Brazilian butt lift], but when I do weight training, it becomes more pert. My bum goes up and down."

Surgeon Mark Ho-Asjoe says, "As with Khloé, Lauren's thighs don’t match her bum. You can’t build muscle in your bum without building it in your thighs, too. Lauren has definitely achieved her new bottom with a cosmetic enhancement and my guess is the Brazilian butt lift again."

Khloe Kardashian: The gym

Not to be outdone by her sisters, Khloé Kardashian has also made a lot of headlines over the years for her large bottom. But despite historic photos of her displaying a much smaller behind, Khloé, 34, has always maintained her bottom is natural, and credits her regular workouts for the change. She once Tweeted, “Sorry to disappoint. I’ve always had an ass. I know it’s more fun to believe it’s not real, kind of a compliment since I kill myself in the gym.”

Surgeon Mark Ho-Asjoe says, “If a bum was to change drastically due to muscle growth, then the thighs would match but, in Khloé’s case, they do not. This looks like the result of a Brazilian butt lift.”

The actress looks drastically different since first shooting to fame in the ’90s but, despite sparking rumours of Botox, fillers and even a face lift, the Bridget Jones star has insisted her transformed appearance is down to a healthy lifestyle. The 49-year-old previously said, “I did not make a decision to alter my face and have surgery on my eyes… I’m glad folks think I look different! I’m living a different, happy, more fulfilling life, and I’m thrilled that perhaps it shows."

Surgeon Mark Ho-Asjoe says, "Renée looks like a totally different person, so I don’t think it’s just a lifestyle change. She looks like she’s had Botox in her forehead, and filler put into the cheeks to create a more defined look."
