Miss Universe Jennifer Hawkins looks almost unrecognizable in revived Ralph magazine cover

An image of Jennifer Hawkins looking barely recognizable early in her modeling career has left fans scratching their heads.

This week, an image from Jennifer’s 2004 Ralph magazine cover reappeared on the Instagram influencer watchdog account celeb spell check,

The ceremonial photo was taken months after Jennifer won the coveted Miss Universe pageant, and featured the blonde scintillatingly in a skimpy red bikini.

Several users commented on how different Jennifer looks, with one writing: ‘Wow Jane Hawkins is unrecognizable!’

Another user agreed, ‘It doesn’t even look like her’, while someone else said: ‘There’s no way Jennifer Hawkins – really?!’

At her Ralph photoshoot, Jennifer was wearing pencil-thin eyebrows and her lips were looking very thin.

She’s since embraced a fuller, more natural-looking eyebrow style and now sports a noticeably fuller pout — probably thanks to clever makeup techniques.

Jennifer has been the subject of plastic surgery rumors for years, but she has never discussed whether she has gone under the knife.

In 2018, Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Randall Howarth He offered his expert opinion on Jennifer’s emerging looks, telling Daily Mail Australia at the time: ‘I often see pretty girls like Jennifer fix up their features to enter ‘supermodel’ territory.’

According to Dr. Howarth, who hasn’t treated Jennifer herself, she has invested in some minor fixes to ‘improve facial balance as a whole’.

“Most people scratch their heads at how a former Miss Universe can improve upon her already idolized face,” she said.

‘Her new and more glamorous look is helped by rhinoplasty to refine and elevate the tip of her nose while compressing her asymmetrical nasal bones.’

Despite being a household name for over 15 years, Jennifer has hardly aged a day and is arguably more beautiful now than she was in her early twenties.

Dr. Howarth believes the former Maier ambassador has indulged in Botox as well as ‘filling in her cheeks and other areas of her face’.

“I strongly suspect that she did lip augmentation for added sensuality and overall better facial balance,” he said.

In 2010, Jennifer attributed the drastic change in appearance to healthy eating, exercise, and makeup.

Women get better with age because they have more confidence in themselves. It’s about makeup and health,’ she said on The Kyle and the Jackie O Show.

Jennifer has previously danced on the topic of plastic surgery when asked about her age-destroying look.

In 2014 he told Australian Women’s Weekly It was the nature of the fashion industry to be accused of having cosmetic surgery in it.

‘I have no reaction when someone says ‘under the knife,’ she said.

‘Everyone in the industry gets that. No problem. I’m good with it. I am good with people who have an opinion, but as I said, I am happy as a person and really just want to live my life.’

In 2016, the former Australia’s Next Top Model judge claimed that it was a personal choice if people wanted to invest in plastic surgery.

He said Daily Telegraph: ‘For each!’
