Though it might be nice to know that Kate Middleton looks as good as she does with a little help, rumors about the Duchess of Cambridge’s penchant for 'baby botox' are untrue.

On Wednesday, Dr. Munir Somji from the Dr. MediSpa clinic in the UK posted two photos of Kate Middleton’s face side-by-side and claimed the difference between the two images was due to botox.

He has since removed the post, but the caption read, “Our Kate loves a bit of baby botox. Patients come from far and wide to see me for this procedure. It truly is so simple... There is no excuse for doctors to leave patients with brows on the floor. Note the reduction of fine lines on the forehead. But also note the depression of the medial (middle part) brow but elevation of the lateral tail of the brow. The magic of baby Botox is that it does not leave you feeling so heavy and provides you with a subtle reduction of lines as well as a better eyebrow position."

Kensington Palace was quick to deny the post, reportedly telling E! News, “this story is not true.” A spokesperson for Kensington Palace also told The New York Post, “The Royal Family never endorse commercial activity.”

The market manager for Dr. MediSpa clarified that the post was simply referring to “The U.K.’s Kate,” not the spa’s Kate.

'Baby botox' is a procedure which uses a lower dose of the botulinum toxin and is often popular with customers looking for a more subtle change, or those trying out botox for the first time.
