An article on Nov. 12, 2014 in MStars News, entitled “Mary Kate Olsen: Plastic Surgery or Pregnancy? What Happened To The Child Star’s Face?” asks what we think Mary Kate Olsen has done to appear so different from her identical twin sister Ashely Olsen. It is obvious that Mary Kate has received facial filler treatment that has not been “identically” received by Ashley.

When one twin drastically appears different from the other, it is rather easy to compare and contrast the differences in their faces. This photo shows the obvious filler in Mary Kate’s lips, her cheeks, temples, forehead, and jawline resulting in a more masculine appearance than her twin sister. The most likely filler used, in my opinion, is Voluma, a great deal of Voluma. In a 28 year old woman, we may use 1-2 syringes of Voluma for subtle volumization of the cheeks. To create the changes seen in Ms. Olsen, 28 years old, would likely take at least 6 to 10 syringes of Voluma. Other fillers were likely used including Juevederm in her lips, and perhaps Sculptra in her face.

The MStars article postulates that Mary Kate’s facial changes may be due to pregnancy. Though pregnancy can add volume to the face, it does not add it in the manner Ms. Olsen’s face has changed.

Ironically, for all of the “rejuvenation” work that Mary Kate has had done, she now appears at least 10 years older than her twin. We have seen this time and again when young patients receive excess filler. They look much older, and the same physicians that create this look, use the fillers in a similar manner attempting to make 50 and 60 year old women appear 40-ish. In my opinion, Mary Kate now looks like an older woman who is trying to look younger.

So, what happens when one twin has aggressive facial volumization and the other does not? Well, the obvious plastic surgery changes are more obvious, but at least for someone who has difficulty for 25 years telling them apart, I can finally differentiate Ashley from Mary Kate. Choose your facial plastic surgeon most carefully, based on their skill, experience, and most importantly, their natural artistic vision. Be well.
