What is a Fox Eyes?

The fox eyes is an aesthetic intervention aimed at stretching the outer corner of the eye towards the temples. It modifies the shape of the palpebral opening to obtain a more open and lifted almond gaze, without altering vision or eye function.

Popularized by celebrities like Kendall Jenner or Bella Hadid, this trend (also called “cat eyes”) floods social networks like TikTok via the #foxeye challenge. The goal is to recreate a sharp, upward gaze, highly requested by patients seeking a glamorous look.

In Turkey, surgeons use cutting-edge techniques to stabilize the canthal ligament. Unlike temporary tricks (makeup or eyebrow shaving), the procedure offers a long-lasting structural modification of the periorbital area.

The procedure consists of lifting the outer corner of the upper eyelid. This action repositions the lateral eyelid commissure, which has the beneficial side effect of slightly smoothing the temporal area and discreetly raising the tail of the eyebrow. Many patients combine this with plastic surgery in Turkey to achieve overall facial harmony.

While the aesthetic aspect is attractive, it is crucial to consider the medical implications. Specialized ocular work requires millimetric precision to avoid any asymmetry or eyelid retraction, which is why the choice of practitioner is so important.

What Does the Fox Eyes Treatment Consist of?

To modify the shape of the eyes and erase signs of fatigue, two approaches are possible:

The non-invasive option: It uses tension threads or hyaluronic acid injections. The threads create immediate mechanical tension, while fillers reposition volumes. These solutions are temporary (12 to 24 months).

The surgical option (Canthopexy): This is the permanent solution. It can be coupled with a blepharoplasty in Turkey (eyelid correction) or a face lift in Turkey. The surgeon re-tensions the canthal tendon to fix the eye in its new almond position.

In patients aged 25 to 40, a temporal lift is often preferred to correct a “drooping eyebrow.” It is essential to choose a natural look, as trends pass, but surgery modifies the anatomy permanently.

Who is the Fox Eyes Lift For?

Facial anatomy determines the success of the procedure. Patients with naturally little orbital fat and good skin elasticity (often young Mediterranean or Caucasian origins) are excellent candidates for threads or injections.

In contrast, with age or depending on genetics, the loss of collagen can make injections less effective or visible. In this case, only surgery can achieve a clean result without surface irregularities.

Since each face is unique, the “Fox Eyes look” must be tailored. An overly stretched eye on a round face might lack harmony. Note that Turkish clinics also welcome HIV-positive patients (subject to viral load conditions) and have PRM (persons with reduced mobility) access. If you are considering other procedures, an abdominoplasty in Turkey is also frequently requested by international patients.

Risks, Complications, and Side Effects

Although rare, some risks exist:

  • Temporary bruising and edema;
  • Slight asymmetry between the two eyes;
  • Increased sensitivity to wind or light for 15 days;
  • Palpable nodules (in the case of tension threads).

From a cultural perspective, Fox Eyes is considered halal if it aims to correct sagging or an aesthetic defect weighing on the patient’s morale, according to many contemporary opinions.

Our Advice for a Successful Procedure

The ocular area is complex. Do not choose a surgeon solely based on price. Check that they have specific expertise in oculo-plastic surgery. The tissues around the eye are the thinnest in the body and do not forgive any handling errors.
