According to a story, Vladimir Putin’s daughter has been having ‘vampire facelift’ therapy while her father bleeds blood in Ukraine.
Katerina Tikhonova, 35, visited Munich for a beauty treatment recommended by Kim Kardashian.
Her blood was removed, then processed and injected back under the skin in a treatment costing £4,310 per session, reported Bild newspaper.
She also underwent Botox procedures and had hyaluronic acid injections to treat frown lines on her forehead and laugh lines on her mouth.
Her father and his alleged lover Alina Kabaeva, 39, a top Russian gymnast, are both fond of Botox treatments, say earlier reports.
One Russian comment on the Katerina report read: ‘Just like her daddy…’.
Another asked: ‘Putin’s daughter wasted thousands of euro on a weird beauty procedure – does she, just like her daddy, want to be younger and live forever?’
Anti-war Telegram channel Utro Fevralya (February Morning) mocked: ‘While her dad is so protective of his biological material that he even carries a personal dry toilet with him everywhere he goes, his frivolous daughter Katerina Tikhonova…squandered valuable genetic biomaterial right and left…’Tikhonova allegedly underwent a Vampire-Lifting procedure.
‘But the price is not as important as the fact that now it turns out that NATO has Putin’s biomaterial and DNA … it’s scary to think what they can do with it.
‘Perhaps they have already processed it in bio-laboratories…
High-kicking ‘rock’n’roll’ dancing Katerina was recently believed to have made regular trips to Munich to be with her new lover Igor Zelensky, 52, who until recently headed the Bavarian State Ballet.
The Russian ballet icon was ousted after refusing to denounce Putin’s savage war in Ukraine.
Previously Katerina Tikhonova, the younger of two Putin daughters from his marriage to ex-Kremlin first lady Lyudmila, was earlier wed to Russia’s youngest billionaire Kirill Shamalov, 40.
They split around 2017 when she secretly started a relationship with the ballet star who was married with two daughters and a son to choreographer Yana Serebryakova.
Putin has publicly raged against Russians who live their lives in the West – yet his own daughter was mostly living in Munich with full Russian state support including security.
Until earlier this year and the start of war in Ukraine, it appears she was living with him in Germany.
She is believed to have moved back to Russia earlier this year when Putin started his war in Ukraine.
She has a daughter with Zelensky – who shares the same surname as the Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensnky.
Tikhonova – born when her father was a KGB spy in Germany – is said to be deputy director of the Institute for Mathematical Research of Complex Systems at Moscow State University.
Earlier, before her identity as Putin’s daughter was known, she took part in international ‘rock’n’roll’ dancing contests.
Her elder sister is Dr Maria Vorontsova, a leading researcher at the National Medical Research Centre for Endocrinology of the Ministry of Health of Russia.
She has a half-sister Luiza Rozova, 19, daughter of Putin’s ex-lover, cleaner-turned-multimillionaire Svetlana Krivonogikh, 45.
Krivonogikh is now part-owner of a major Russian bank, one of the country’s wealthiest women with an estimated £74 million financial and property fortune.
