āOkay, flawless. Love you,ā one follower reacted.
āBreathtaking photos and video with your extremely long beautiful and breathtaking long blonde hair!!! Simply stunning!!!!ā added another.
āI must say that Kim K is in the best shape ever!!!ā said one follower.
While the reality star has no doubt benefitted from good genes, she also has a few shortcuts up her sleeve for looking like a million bucks ā and they cost a pretty penny.
BODY IN A BIT
Kim is famed for her incredible physique, not least for her snatched waistline and rounded butt.
Rumors of plastic surgery continue to dominate despite theĀ HuluĀ star posting proof on Instagram that she goes to the gym.
Her trainer isĀ Senada Greca, who claims she puts Kim through the paces using weights and resistance training.
New York plastic surgeon Dr. Richard Westreich begs to differ.
Kim has worked to create that famous hourglass shape.

āIt is certainly possible that she wouldāve had some form of breast implantation already done then,ā he told The U.S. Sun.
āKim likely had some augmentations, and so has worked to create that famous hourglass shape,ā he added.
Many have also wondered whether Kim got butt implants.

She admitted to getting her butt cosmetically enhanced in 2016 but said she had injections forĀ Psoriasis.
Beverly HillsĀ plastic surgeonĀ Dr. Daniel BarrettĀ told The U.S. Sun he thinks Kim may haveĀ spent up to $170,000Ā on various surgeries and procedures.
āShe appears to have had liposuction with fat transfer. At one point, her results were overdone and very exaggerated,ā he said, suggesting a BBL.
Brazilian Butt Lift surgery ā in which excess fat is removed from other parts of the body and injected into the buttocks ā can cost anywhere from $10,000 to $50,000.
Later, she was rumored to have reversed her BBL.

Kimās forever youthful skin suggests cosmetic products like Botox and filler are at play.
āIām absolutely not against cosmetic surgery,ā she toldĀ ABCĀ in 2018.
āIāve previously tried Botox. Thatās the only thing that Iāve done,ā Kim admitted.
It can be exhausting, trying to keep up with all the various areas of the face.

āFrom what I can see, Kim may have had Botox, a Botox lip flip, and threads,āĀ added Dr. Barrett, who estimated that she spends between $500 and $25,000 on lasers, peels, and skin tightening.
Botox costs $500 to $1,500 every three months.
āRegarding aging and changing cosmetic treatments, Kim would have to keep her age in mind.
āIt can be exhausting, trying to keep up with all the various areas of the face,ā he said.

Kimās chiseled features might be thanks to her makeup brandās Contour and Highlight Kit.
She previously shared her five-minute routine online.
Kim usedĀ a KKW highlighting stick to slim her nose using a lighter shade.
āI never had my nose done,ā the TV star also said during a 2019 Masterclass by her makeup artist,Ā Mario Dedivanovic, who charges up to $30,000 a session.
But Dr. Barrett isnāt so sure thatās true.
āKim previously had a bump in her nose, which sheās claimed has been resolved through contouring. This is not, unfortunately,Ā possible with makeup contouring,ā he said.
āI would say sheās undergone a very tasteful minimal rhinoplasty.ā
