Kylie Jenner’s BFF Stassie Karanikolaou shows off slim curves in tiny bikini after getting BBL reduction

Kylie Jenner’s close friend, Stassie Karanikolaou, is feeling confident with her new figure after having surgery to reduce the size of her buttocks.

The 28-year-old influencer and businesswoman shared photos on Instagram showing off her amazing results while relaxing with friends on a tropical vacation, complete with sunshine, beaches, and music.

Karanikolaou, who had a butt reduction surgery in October, showed off her new figure in a tiny black bikini while relaxing by the pool. She also shared a photo of herself playfully blowing a kiss to the camera while sitting poolside.

In another photo, Jenner’s long-haired pal was lounging in the sun in a tiny pink bikini.

The camera then showed her posing with friends Jesse Jo Stark, a singer and model who’s worked with Balmain, and Gabbriette Bechtel, a model known for her work with SKIMS, Kim Kardashian’s clothing brand.

Okay, so I just have to tell you what I saw! It was amazing. I mean, Karanikolaou was totally laughing and dancing with Gabbriette in this adorable cabana. She looked incredible – a cute crop top and this flowy skirt… honestly, they both looked like they were having the best time.

Karanikolaou’s closest friend is definitely Jenner, who is 28 years old. They’ve known each other since they were teenagers, growing up together and becoming well-known on social media. They’ve also collaborated on business projects, like their Kylie x Stassie makeup collection.

In a TikTok video posted on October 7th, Karanikolaou shared that she had surgery to reduce the size of her buttocks, specifically a Brazilian butt lift reduction.

I’m recovering at the surgery center after having a butt reduction. I’m feeling really comfortable – I’m even enjoying some chicken tenders and fries! My pain medication just started working, so I’m doing well.

She said she was pleased with how her rear end was looking – more toned and shapely. She also expressed excitement about recovering and feeling better about her body.

On October 8th, she posted another video where she said she regretted getting a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) to begin with.

I wish someone had been honest with me about the realities of plastic surgery when I was younger, before I made a decision I’ve regretted for years and spent time and effort trying to correct. It’s actually made me feel less confident and like I’m not being my true self.

Karanikolaou added that she believes everyone should have the freedom to make their own choices about their body. She explained she was sharing her personal experience, hoping it might help others who are going through something similar, as she wishes she had made different choices when she was younger.

She encouraged her followers to prioritize their own happiness and comfort, advising them to do what feels right for them personally, rather than what they feel obligated to do.

During a May episode of her podcast, Better Half, Karanikolaou revealed she’s had additional treatments to address complications from her Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL).

I really regret it and have been working to correct it for a while now,” she explained. “I’m actually having another surgery in a few weeks to try and make it smaller.

She admitted she didn’t understand what she was getting into when she agreed to it. She also wished she hadn’t felt the way she did back then.

‘I felt just the pressure of the world that we live in and the trend of the times. 

Don’t get surgery to keep up with fleeting trends – remember, those trends won’t stay popular for long.

On December 3rd, Jenner shared on Instagram that she received stem cell therapy to help with ongoing back pain she’s had since her last pregnancy.

She explained that she’s had persistent back pain for nearly three years, ever since her pregnancy, and hasn’t found anything that provides relief.

Jenner shared that her older half-sister, Kim Kardashian, 45, was the one who suggested she try the treatment.

Honestly, hearing about the positive impact stem cell therapy had on Kim really inspired me to explore it for myself. It gave me the push I needed to learn more and consider it as an option.

Jenner recently visited Dr. Akhan and the team at Eterna Health and expressed sincere gratitude for the care and resources they provided.

‘Everyone’s body is different, but this has been a huge step in my healing.’

Jenner advised her followers to thoroughly research any health options and consult with doctors or other medical experts. She simply wanted to share her experience in case it could be helpful to others.
