KRIS Jenner debuted a new 'do at her daughter Kourtney Kardashian's wedding this weekend — but it may have been a smoke screen for a more dramatic refresher.
While the 66-year-old hasn't admitted to having any work done recently, she has had a facelift in the past — and one plastic surgeon says that a hair makeover is the perfect way to soft launch a face tweak after a nip/tuck.
The world's most famous momager looked refreshed and fabulous at her eldest child's high-profile event in Italy, and Instagram followers couldn't help but notice her slightly longer locks, which fell over her ears and covered most of her forehead with asymmetrical bangs.
"I’m loving the new hair," wrote one commenter.
But others were more struck by how "stunning" and "gorgeous" she looked, with one remarking, "Omg you aging backwards."
It's unclear whether that reverse aging is due to top-of-the-line skincare or some surgical magic, but one top plastic surgeon says sporting a new hairstyle is not uncommon after a facelift.

"Immediately after a facelift, one might choose to wear their hair down to hide incisions until they begin to fade," Dr. Darren Smith, an NYC-based Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, tells the US Sun.
Doing this can "directly hide scars when they are healing" and "better complement their new facial aesthetic."
"Wearing your hair around your ears is great for the first few weeks after a facelift to hide scars," he added. "Bangs can be great for a few weeks to hide scars after a brow lift.
"After that, when the scars fade, most of my patients feel a sense of freedom to experiment with hairstyles they may have avoided in an attempt to offset signs of facial aging."

Though Dr. Smith said a good facelift shouldn't "radically change" a person's look, playing with other parts of your appearance can still help ease the "initial transition."
"Hair styles and clothing that frame the face are a good idea right after the procedure. These options draw the eye to the periphery and soften the appearance of the 'main event,'" he said.
While Kris hasn't admitted to going under the knife any time recently, she was candid about getting a facelift in a 2011 episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians.

"She looks amazing," Khloe said afterward. "They say you are supposed to have a lot of swelling for a week or so after, but I didn't notice."
In 2015, she copped to getting Botox, fillers, and laser treatments, as well as a boob job after having four kids "because gravity took over."
