Following public remarks by media personality Kris Jenner, 69, regarding the discreet referral process she established with her plastic surgeon, Dr. Steven Levine, the physician’s practice has reportedly been inundated with inquiries from individuals attempting to ascertain or exploit the alleged “secret password” referenced by the reality star.
In a recent episode of the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast, Ms. Jenner explained that she and Dr. Levine had agreed upon a confidential password system through which she could refer trusted acquaintances seeking cosmetic consultations. The disclosure, however, appears to have triggered significant operational challenges for Dr. Levine’s office.
According to Radar Online, the clinic has been “absolutely plagued” by calls from individuals purporting to be personally associated with Ms. Jenner—claiming to be assistants, stylists, relatives, and even her dog walker—in attempts to obtain appointments under false pretenses. A source within the practice described the situation as “chaotic,” noting that the clinic was compelled to suspend its main phone line temporarily and implement a screening process for all new inquiries.
When contacted for comment, representatives of Dr. Levine’s office did not immediately respond to inquiries from The Daily Mail.
Ms. Jenner recounted that Dr. Levine, who is known for maintaining a low public profile, initially resisted publicity surrounding her procedure. However, she persuaded him to allow her to disclose his identity on the condition that prospective referrals use a pre-arranged password to verify authenticity.
The Keeping Up with the Kardashians matriarch further stated that both she and the clinic had received numerous fraudulent calls from individuals falsely claiming personal familiarity in order to secure appointments. “If I told you how many times his office has called and said someone’s on the phone claiming to be my best friend,” she said. “I’ve never heard of them. So definitely, people have tried to get in.”
Ms. Jenner emphasized that her decision to discuss the surgery publicly was motivated by a desire to destigmatize elective procedures and encourage others not to fear medically necessary or cosmetic interventions undertaken for personal well-being.
In an earlier interview with Vogue Arabia, Ms. Jenner revealed that she underwent a facelift and neck lift procedure approximately 15 years after her previous operation, describing it as a “refresh.” She stated, “I decided to do this facelift because I want to be the best version of myself, and that makes me happy. For me, this is aging gracefully—my version.”#newsafro_
