Kim Zolciak was recently caught photoshopping her kids, but her latest photo controversy required no digital editing.

The Don’t Be Tardy star shared a series of new photos, each of which featured her huge, swollen lips.

Even Kim’s most adoring fans are on their knees, begging her to go easy on the lip fillers.

"I’m so ready for 2019!" Kim Zolciak writes in her Instagram captions.

Beside her words are three selfies that she snapped showing her extremely, painfully prominent lips.

(We don’t know that they’re actually causing her pain, but they certainly caused plenty of pain among her followers)

As you can see from the images, which we’re sharing with you hear, her lips are dramatically swollen.

Kim is famous for her unabashed use of fillers, but … some of her fans and followers believed that this is a little much.

The reality star shared these photos on Sunday, December 16.

Kim Zolciak’s fans took to the comments to tell her, as kindly as they knew how, to lay off the fillers.

"Please stop with the lip injections," one fan begged. "You are gorgeous, you don’t need to do that."

"You are beautiful but I really wish you would consider stopping with the lip injections," implored another followers.

That same comment continued: "You’re actually prettier without them."

"Believe me I’m not hating," announced another fan. "Stop the lip injections!"

Kim did not respond to that backlash, but since she responded to comments that were pure praise, it seems likely that she saw the feedback.

Back in August, Kim replied to fans with similar concerns, simply saying of lip fillers: "I love them for now."

That is, at least, a sliver of hope to fans who hope to see her tone it down — as she has done with her boobs.

Some fans have taken their concerns too far and projected them onto her 17-year-old daughter, Ariana Biermann.

Before her most recent birthday, Ariana addressed the rumors that she herself had gone under the knife.

"I’m so over people asking me this," Ariana lamented. "I am 16 dude I’ve had no plastic surgery what so ever."

Back in July, Kim Zolciak spoke to Us Weekly about the way that fans — and trolls — view and discuss her family.

"Messing with my kids is gonna be a big one, you know?" she says of things that cross the line. "Let’s use Brielle’s lips, right?"

"So when Brielle wanted her lips done." Kim shares. "It was something that she’s never really liked.”

“She’s always talked about wanting bigger lips," Kim reveals.

Kim explains: "She turned 18, I took her to the best."

"That’s her decision, her choice," Kim says. "I took her to the best."

"She was very open" with fans, Kim says. "Because she said she didn’t want other girls that felt like her to not know that there wasn’t an option."

That is so sweet!

"So she shared that with the world," Kim notes.

Kim continues: "Then, they’re like, ‘You look like a duck, you look awful, they look terrible, blah, blah, blah,’ and Brielle’s like, ‘Well f—k, maybe I shouldn’t say anything.’"

People can be so hurtful.

Kim concludes: "I said, ‘No, you just basically do you.’"

"When you talk about my kids, it does, at times, have an impact on me," Kim admits.

She points out: "You don’t even know our family like that."

"A lot of people that don’t even, is not a real follower or a real fan," Kim says of haters.

In her view: "it’s just somebody that just runs around to everybody’s page and is negative, at the end of the day."

"But my kids are definitely a touchy subject, or my husband," Kim adds.

Some point out that Kim’s lips are Kim’s choice, and they’re not wrong.

Fans are still entitled to share their thoughts — up to a point.

Just don’t cross a line where you become a hater or a harasser, please.
