Why does Kylie Jenner look a decade older on her 22nd birthday?

She turned 22 on Saturday and has been wowing her fans with a series of social media updates which show her very glamorous celebrations in Portofino. 

But Kylie Jenner’s fans have been taking to social media to blame surgical procedures for making her look older than her years. 

It’s also likely that the fact that she has also achieved so much in her short life already,has also led people to think she’s older than she is. 

Why does Kylie Jenner look a decade older on her 22nd birthday? Fans have expressed their shock over reality star’s REAL age after she admitted to having work done

Making changes: Kylie pictured in Portofino on Monday (left) compared to a picture taken in February 2012 when she was aged 15 (right) 

The reality star was named Forbes’ youngest self-made billionaire due to her beauty empire and she’s also mother to baby Stormi, 18 months. 

Kylie has admitted to experimenting with facial fillers in the past and it’s fair to say her lips are much more plumped now than just a few years ago. 

The make-up mogul also claims she uses her products to alter her appearance but claims she is ‘terrified’ of having anything more done. 

Something to say: Kylie’s fans have taken to Twitter after discovering her true age – believing that she was older 

She told PAPER in February: ‘People think I fully went under the knife and reconstructed my face, which is completely false.

‘I’m terrified! I would never. They don’t understand what good hair and makeup and, like, fillers, can really do. It’s fillers. I’m not denying that.’ 

But after seeing pictures of her away on holiday, her fans have taken to Twitter to express their surprise that she is only 22 years of age.

All change: By August 2018, Kylie was already sporting plumper lips and experimented with her style way more 

They wrote: ‘Idc what anyone says. Kylie Jenner is starting to look very old!’

‘The first time I saw @KylieJenner I thought she’s 25 or 30 yrs old coz she have a daughter and she really look matured, but she’s only 22!!! 22!!! The heck next I’m turning 20 but I look like a 15.’ 

‘Kylie Jenner turned 22 but looks at least 30 with a baby.’ 

‘I still can’t believe Kylie Jenner is only 21, she genuinely looks like a 50yr old trying to be 21.’

Top plastic surgeon Mark Ho-Asjoe previously told Closer magazine that he believes she has had more work done than she claims and this is ageing her. 

Celebrations: Kylie has been sharing lots of pictures from her trip in Portofino, from her luxury yacht 

Mix and match: A snap taken in Capri showed a heavily filtered Kylie showing off plump lips enhanced with make-up

She’s done a lot: The reality star was named Forbes’ youngest self-made billionaire due to her beauty empire and she’s also mother to baby Stormi, 18 months

He wrote: ‘Kylie has made herself look way beyond her years. All the surgery I suspect she’s had – fillers to her lips and cheeks, a nose job and possibly some bone shaving around her jaw – is ageing her.

‘Her eyes look wider, which implies she may have had eye surgery.

‘If she continues with all these treatments, in 10 years time the skin around her lips will have stretched like a balloon and if she doesn’t keep plumping them up the skin will be wrinkled.’
