South Korean First Lady Kim Keon Hee is traveling in Britain with her husband, President Yoon Suk Yeol, as they are welcomed by King Charles and Queen Camilla during a state visit.
But Royals fans have expressed their shock online after discovering that Ms Kim, a former head of an arts events planning company, is 51 – some say she looks a decade or more younger.
Speaking to FEMAIL, a cosmetic dermatologist revealed that Ms Kim’s “remarkable age-defying appearance” may be “due to a combination of various non-invasive cosmetic treatments”.
Einas Mousa, founder of Perla Dermatology Clinic, said: “Procedures such as facial fillers and Botox are common to achieve a rejuvenated look without the need for surgery.”
“These treatments can help smooth fine lines and restore volume, resulting in a naturally youthful appearance,” the expert added. It was also suggested that the First Lady’s radiant appearance was thanks to the motto “less is more makeup” and a strict skin care routine.

Einas added: “The First Lady’s glowing skin could be the result of a special skin care routine, which may include medicated facials and advanced skin care products.”
“In addition to professional treatments, lifestyle factors such as a balanced diet, regular exercise and proper hydration also contribute significantly to maintaining a youthful appearance.”
Meanwhile, Laura Kay, beauty expert and founder of Laura Kay London, said the first lady looked “lively and radiant, but also natural.”
She explained: “Undone beauty is a growing trend and Kim Keon Hee takes the “less is more” approach as her makeup is simple with only slightly defined eyes and lips. Her hair is also kept simple so as not to affect her radiant complexion.
“As many experts know, a natural or ‘no makeup’ look requires extensive preparation and behind-the-scenes work to achieve the perfect appearance – celebrity favorite tricks include permanent makeup and laser frequency treatments.”
“With subtle changes, you can literally turn back the clock to look more youthful and refreshed.” The First Lady will have access to the best; It looks like she has had fillers and Botox as her skin looks slightly stretched.
“Her daily skin care needs to be a high priority as expensive medical skin care products are among her beauty secrets. I can imagine her investing in advanced skin peels and laser treatments to repair her skin and give it a plumper appearance.”

Members of the Scottish Guards were recently deployed to South Korea where they trained troops. Mr. Yoon walked past the two rows of guardsmen and inspected the soldiers before returning to the royal pavilion with the king.
Charles, Camilla, William and Kate and their guests then traveled in a carriage procession through the Mall to Buckingham Palace.
The King and Queen then arrived at the grand entrance of Buckingham Palace to the sound of the South Korean and British national anthems, along with President Yoon Suk Yeol and his wife Kim Keon Hee.
Mr. Yoon was the first to step out of the black and gold Irish state carriage, followed by the king. In the second carriage – the Australian state carriage – Camilla accompanied Ms. Kim.
William and Kate traveled on the Scottish state bus with Choo Kyung-ho, South Korea’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Economy and Finance. The royal group and their guests then headed to the palace for a private lunch.
