Kris Jenner’s Plastic Surgeon Dr. Steven Levine: 5 Things to Know About the Doctor to the Stars

Plastic surgeon Dr. Steven Levine has been unveiled as the man behind Kris Jenner’s radiant visage.

The Kardashian matriarch stepped out recently looking glowing, leading to speculation surrounding just who was responsible for the 69-year-old’s fresh look.

Now that the identity of the man credited with Jenner’s appearance has been revealed as Levine, Us Weekly is sharing five things to know about the in-demand New York doctor.

1. He’s a plastic surgeon to A-listers, including Kris Jenner

As he’s built up a reputation for his skills with a scalpel, Dr. Steven Levine has attracted the interest of A-listers all wanting to enhance their looks.

Dr. Levine’s client list reportedly includes famous models, actresses and more — and one recent high-profile name purportedly using his services is Jenner.

Per a People report in May, Jenner had “aesthetic enhancements” performed by Dr. Levine, though the exact kind is still unknown.

2. He specializes in “natural-looking” face and body work

According to Dr. Levine’s website, he specializes in “natural-looking enhancements” for the face and body, such as facelifts, brow lifts, blepharoplasty (A.K.A. eyelid lifts), brow lifts, neck lifts, facial fat grafting, dermal fillers, chemical peels, and dermabrasion (which helps with fine lines). Per a People interview in 2020, the fee for his facial work starts at $45,000.

3. He’s won a bunch of prestigious awards

The in-demand and acclaimed doctor has earned several awards for his well-honed skills, according to his website.

He’s won the Blair Rodgers Resident Research Award at Institute of Reconstructive Plastic Surgery, New York University Medical Center as well as NYU School of Medicine’s Outstanding Contribution to Student Life Award.

Also among the awards are several from Tufts University including being a Wendell Phillips Award Finalist and achieving the Arnold B. Hoffman University Service Award.

4. His business was affected in unexpected ways during the COVID-19 pandemic

When elective surgery was forced to an abrupt halt in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic, Dr. Levine found his New York-based business was affected in surprising ways.

Some clients were apparently so desperate to still get their plastic surgery fix that they jokingly bribed him to operate regardless of the lockdowns, he told People in 2020. One hopeful client even offered Levine “a month-long in-house accommodation in the Hamptons.”

5.  He turns down a third of would-be patients

In an interview with V Magazine in 2019, Levine talked about being responsible as a doctor when it comes to accepting plastic surgery requests from prospective patients.

“I’d say a third and a half [of patients] I say no to. Sometimes I get weird vibes, sometimes I don’t think I can make them happy, sometimes I don’t think they’re ready, um, or it might be it just won’t look good on them,” he told the outlet at the time.

Levine acknowledged that he chooses ethics over taking on clients purely for the paycheck if he thinks the surgery they want is a bad idea from a medical standpoint.

 “So, the things I do are, I say things to them like ‘I am telling you no which means I am turning down a fee. Right, you are offering me money and I am saying no. Please understand that that means that I think this is a bad idea for you.’” he added.
