Everybody wants youthful eyes that are lifted and have a shape that makes the whole face look fresh and exotic. Celebrities like Bella Hadid are believed to have gotten the fox eye surgery to give their eyes more lift and make them appear more glamorous. This has made the fox eye surgery more in demand. In fact, this procedure is especially popular among those who feel that their eyes are droopy, making them look tired or sleepy. This blog will include real transformations our surgeons have done for patients who have undergone a fox eye surgery. It also includes before and after photos to demonstrate the skill and precision of our surgeons.
🦊 What is the Fox Eye Surgery?
A fox eye surgery, also known as canthoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure that alters the shape of the eyes, making them appear more slanted and giving them an almond shape. The results give the whole face a more lifted look. Not to mention, the upward tilt that the eyes will have after the surgery will make them look more fox or cat-like. It takes away any heaviness in the brows and makes them look lighter and more lifted, so the eyes look brighter and more alert.
🔴 The procedure itself has minimal discomfort as the surgeon will use local anesthesia to numb the patient. To add to this, the fox eye lift only takes about half an hour to perform, and the results offer a drastic change in the eye shape, making the eyes look more elongated.
How is the Eyelid Lift Procedure Done?
The surgeon makes the incisions in the patient’s scalp. Then, the surgeon adjusts the underlying tissue surrounding the eye for the eye to look more lifted. The results include a more pronounced upward tilt to make the eyes look the same shape as a cat’s eyes. There isn’t much scarring because of this procedure since the incision is made in the scalp. Hence, the scar will be hidden in the hairline.
In addition, it only takes the patient a few months to fully recover from this procedure. The patient will also be prescribed pain medication to ease their discomfort.
🎯 A Combination of the Fox Eye Lift Surgery and Blepharoplasty
🔴 If the patient has a lot of upper eyelid skin, the surgeon may combine the fox eye lift procedure and blepharoplasty together. The blepharoplasty eliminates the excess skin or fat for a more contoured eye area, while the fox eye lift can give the eye that almond shape.
📸 Here’s Why “Before and After” Photos are Crucial in Your Decision to Get the Fox Eye Surgery
The before-and-after photos provided by surgeons are essential for them to showcase their work to their patients. This also allows the patients to get a clear understanding of the skill and aesthetic sense of the surgeon. It allows them to see clear examples of the surgeon’s work and better understand the surgeon’s skill and potential. Moreover, potential patients should use the before-and-after photos to pay attention to how precise and clean the incisions are and how symmetrical and undetectable but perfect the results are.
👁️ Patient Transformation #1
In the pre-operative photos, we can see that there is some mild drooping in the brow area. This mild drooping is also making the patient’s eyes look slightly downturned and is also making the eyes look more hooded. Resultingly, her eyes appear tired.
In the “after” photo, we can see a significant improvement in the eye area as the lids appear tighter, the brows more lifted, and the eyes look more almond-shaped.
👁️ Patient Transformation #2
Our second patient clearly has excess skin in the pre-operative photos between the eyebrows and eyelid area. This excess skin is making her eyes look sleepy. We can also see that the outer corners of the eyes are also downturned, which makes the patient have a “sad” expression. The excess skin also makes her eyes look heavier and prevents them from looking bright and open.
In the “after” photo, we can see that the fox eye surgery helped open up her eyes and make them look more lively and energetic.
👀 Who is the Perfect Candidate for the Fox Eye Lift Surgery?
- It is the ideal surgery for those who desire slanted, fox-like eyes.
- If the patient has visible sagging in their area.
- Those with hooded eyes or heavy eyelids can benefit from this procedure.
- People who have great skin elasticity to effectively heal from this surgery.
- Those who have realistic expectations for the results of this fox eye surgery.
- Individuals who are not suffering from any pre-existing eye conditions.
- Those who do not smoke or drink alcohol. This is because smoking and alcohol consumption will have to stop 2 weeks before the surgery.
✨ Non-surgical Techniques to Achieve the Fox Eye Lift
There are non-surgical ways to achieve the fox eye lift as well. One technique is called the Fox Eye Thread Lift. This is where medical-grade threads are placed under the skin to lift the outer corners of the eye to make the eyes look like fox eyes. Moreover, this technique does not result in scarring as there are no incisions.
Botox and fillers are another way to achieve fox eyes without getting surgery. Botox is injected in strategic areas in very small amounts to give some lift to the eyes. The focus is mainly on the outer corners, and the final results also include less noticeable wrinkles and crow’s feet. Moreover, this procedure has no recovery time, while the results can last up to 6 months.
🔴 It should be noted that the main difference between non-surgical vs surgical fox eye results is that the non-surgical technique only changes the eye’s shape temporarily, while the surgical techniques offer long-lasting results.
