Durov, who launched Telegram in 2013, has been a prominent figure with a net worth estimated at $15.5 billion. His social media presence, particularly on Instagram, shows him with a full head of hair and a toned physique. In contrast, older photos depict him with a receding hairline, leading to speculation about possible cosmetic enhancements.
Recent social media posts and Reddit discussions have highlighted the stark differences between his old and new appearances. One post on X stated, “Pavel Durov (Telegram CEO) before his hair transplant and plastic surgery,” sparking a flurry of online debate. Comments on Reddit suggest a range of possibilities, from a hair system or wig to successful plastic surgery.
Some users argue that the noticeable change could be attributed to lighting and angles rather than surgical intervention. “Honestly, I think a lot of the facial ‘changes’ are simply due to the much better angle and lighting on the second photo,” one Reddit user remarked.
