Fox eye surgery goals in Turkey

Fox-like or almond-shaped eyes have become a common virtue of beauty either surgically or with makeup and nowadays a lot of people are interested in such rejuvenation.

The surgery might be appealing if you want to enhance your gazes. With fox eye surgery you can:

  • Enhance your eye contours
  • Achieve youthful and symmetrical eyes
  • Make your glaze more attractive
  • Get rid of your wrinkles around the eyes

Fox vs cat eye surgery; the slight difference

In a fox eye surgery, the width of the eyes is elongated laterally. This gives you a sharper gaze and a bit more serious look.

The same procedure is also done in cat eye surgery but this time the eyes are slightly less elongated. Both fox and cat eye procedures can be performed with lateral canthoplasty or canthopexy.

Lateral canthoplasty or canthopexy

You might have heard about these terms, but what do they mean, and how are they relevant to fox eye surgery?

Lateral canthoplasty is the surgical option to achieve fox eyes and canthopexy is the non-surgical method. During a canthoplasty, the surgeon removes and sutures tissues, while in a canthopexy the surgeon only lifts the eye corners on the edges.

The surgical method gives permanent results, and the lifting may last for a year.

Turkey medical tourism increase in years

Many people choose Turkey for fox eye procedure

Many people choose Turkey for fox eye surgery because it is cost-effective, provides sustainable results, and is a wonderful place to visit.

Fox eye surgery procedures and techniques

Fox eye surgery procedure involves incisions around the eyelids. The goal is to lower the eyelid, increase the width, and enhance the corner of the eyes (canthus). 

With a fox eye surgery in Turkey, we fashion your eye shape, and here are the surgical procedures.

Choice of anesthesia

Your doctor may use both local and general anesthesia to perform the fox eye procedure. For local anesthesia, the incision areas are numbed with lidocaine (anesthetic substance) injections around the eyelids. 

A comforting sedative intravenous may also be given along with local anesthesia. This will make you feel at ease.

Lateral canthoplasty

Lateral canthoplasty is a specialized surgery to adjust the outer corner of the eye, making it look better and fixing any functional issues with the eyelid.

The techniques and goals can vary between different parts of the world, with a focus on either lifting or lengthening the eyes based on cultural preferences.

With a lateral canthoplasty surgery you can achieve:

  • Lifted outer corner of the eyes
  • A younger eye appearance
  • More open and larger eye appearance
  • Smoother and less slanted eyes

Canthopexy

During a canthopexy procedure doctor lifts the eyes on the edges laterally, giving you narrower eyelid points. 

Compared to canthoplasty, this procedure does not involve removing any tendon or skin tissue. Thanks to that you will have fewer complications and risks to worry about. 

In some cases, the canthopexy procedure and canthoplasty can be performed together, allowing for more drastic changes.

With a canthopexy procedure, your doctor can:

  • Improve the eyelid’s appearance
  • Tighten the crow’s feet on the eye corners
  • Offer you a less invasive procedure
  • Lower the risks of complications

Frequently Asked Questions

Gain advanced knowledge over what happens after the surgery, and how long the recovery lasts for fox eye surgery operation.

Are fox eye lift and fox eye surgery the same?

There is a slight difference, although both can be used for the same procedure.

Depending on the context, the lifting may refer to the lifting of the eyes laterally without any skin and fat removal, or in other words canthopexy. On the other hand, when there is a skin removal involved, it can be called a surgical option, AKA canthoplasty.

How long does fox eye surgery results last?

When dissolvable sutures are used for fox eye procedures, results last over 6-12 months. The duration elongates up to 4 years with surgical methods and may even last for a lifetime.

How long does recovery take?

After a fox eye surgery, you should rest for a few days, and it takes around a month to fully recover from swelling and minor pain.

Once you get your surgery done, our doctors will give you recovery guidelines and inform you when you can fly back to your country safely.

How do I know if I am a good candidate for fox eye surgery?

You can have the fox eye surgery to get rid of the saggy appearance below your eyelids, and to sharpen your gaze whether you are a man or woman. It is also preferred as a combination surgery to blepharoplasty, another procedure changing the eyelid’s shape.
