Kim Kardashian sparks shock cosmetic surgery theory after expert spots key detail at Met Gala
Kim Kardashian‘s appearance at Monday’s Met Gala has sparked a peculiar new cosmetic surgery theory.
The reality TV star, 43, shocked fans with her impossibly thin waist during fashion’s biggest night, with some even questioning if she’d had ‘ribs removed’ in order to fit into her Maison Margiela corset gown.
But now, a new detail about her look has been called out by eagle-eyed social media users — her very smooth hands.
Indeed, so perfect was the appearance of the reality star’s hands that Dana Omari-Harrell, who runs a popular plastic surgery-themed Instagram account @IGFamousByDana, suggested she may have undergone ‘hand filling’, a surgical procedure that involves the injection of dental fillers to reduce wrinkles.
Sharing comparison images of Kim’s hands – which the reality star herself branded ‘wrinkly and gross’ back in 2022 – Dana pointed to the fact that the skin appears much smoother than ever before, with every wrinkle and line seemingly vanished.

It comes two years after Kim called her hands, ‘wrinkly and gross’ and admitted they were one of her insecurities; seen in September 2023
‘A follower asked if I thought Kim had her hands done.. and I looked back at her Met 2024 pics.. and yes I do actually!’ she wrote, before going on to list the various procedures that Kim may have undergone in order to transform the appearance of her hands.
‘She may have done radiesse* [dermal fillers], fat transfer or sculptra (or a combination!) There are a couple other products people have filling hands with too. Lasers and things like microneedling resurface and build collagen but won’t FILL – however I do believe she’s done laser resurfacing as well as filling,’ she shared.
‘(If there are any other hand procedures or surgeries.. I have never heard of them or know any surgeon who performs them).’
Dana added, ‘She’s also much thinner now than in the befores I pulled (all from 2018-2021) so her hands should have even less fullness than they do now after her weight loss – so it’s not weight-related.’
The caption went on to say that Kim has previously worn gloves to many events, and has covered her hands with ‘sleeves or even jewelry.’
In a 2022 interview with Allure, Kim revealed that she hates her hands, calling them ‘wrinkly and gross.’

‘I hate my hands – they’re wrinkly and gross,’ the mother of four said, adding that ‘I’ve lived life and changed so many diapers with these hands and I’ve snuggled my babies with these hands, so I’m okay with them.’
‘I’m at peace with not being perfect and I wasn’t like that before,’ she said.
Adding: ‘[Getting older] doesn’t mean that I won’t strive for perfection, but you get to a point where you’re like, “Okay, my health is more important than anything else.’
Kim clarified that while she is at peace with her looks, she would ‘still do anything to look and feel youthful.’
She revealed in the interview that she has only done Botox on her forehead and claims she has not done any filler in her lips or cheeks.
‘Never filled either on, ever,’ before noting that her eyelashes are also real and she isn’t wearing any extensions.
‘I care. I really, genuinely care about looking good,’ the star said.
‘I probably care more than 90 percent of the people on this planet. It’s not easy when you’re a mom an d you’re exhausted at the end of the day or you’re in school, and I’m all of the above,’ Kim explained.
Another top of discussion on Monday was Kim’s shockingly thin waist.
The SKIMS founder shocked fans with her impossibly thin waist during fashion’s biggest night, with some even questioning if she had some ‘ribs removed’ in order to fit into her gown
The reality star has become known for her curvaceous figure and bodacious behind, but her most recent Met Gala look left some of her fans surprised.
Kim attended the coveted event wearing an astonishingly tiny silver Maison Margiela corset and sheer lacy skirt.
The ensemble, which was designed by John Galliano, sparked fierce concern from social media users – with one person predicting that she’d ‘be in the hospital by the end of the night,’ and another asking, ‘How many ribs did she get removed?’
One interesting fashion choice that the A-lister made was wrapping herself in a grey knit cropped sweater which felt a bit disjoined from the rest of the look.
