The Foxy Eyes Lift, also known as the Cat Eye Lift or Bella Eyes Lift (inspired by supermodel Bella Hadid), is a cosmetic procedure designed to create almond-shaped, elongated eyes with a lifted outer corner—resembling the eyes of a fox or cat.
This treatment is particularly popular among younger women who desire high, arched brows and a more defined eye contour.
How Is a Foxy Eyes Lift Performed?
There are several ways to achieve the foxy eyes look, depending on your desired results and commitment level:
- Non-Surgical Thread Lift
This minimally invasive procedure uses dissolvable threads to lift and tighten the skin around the eyes. It’s a popular choice for those who want subtle results without going under the knife. The threads stimulate collagen production, which can enhance the lift over time. - Botox and Fillers – Non-surgical alternatives that create a temporary lift by relaxing muscles and adding volume. This method is temporary but offers a quick and relatively painless way to achieve the foxy eyes effect.
- Surgical Options
For more dramatic and long-lasting results, a surgical brow lift or temporal lift may be recommended. These procedures involve removing excess skin and tightening the muscles to create a lifted appearance. More details about Foxy eyes surgery – here. - Makeup Techniques
If you’re not ready for any procedures, makeup can work wonders! Techniques like winged eyeliner, strategic eyeshadow placement, and false lashes can create the illusion of lifted eyes.
