What Are Fox Eye Threads?
The fox eye thread lift, also called a fox eye / brow lift or thread lift, is a non-surgical procedure that uses threads to lift the area around the eyes by raising the brow’s outer edge. The primary goal of the fox eye thread lift is to lift and reshape the eyes, resulting in a more elongated and almond-shaped appearance.
How Does A Fox Eye Lift Work?
The fox eye lift uses special threads to lift and reposition the area around the eyes, particularly the outer corners and eyebrows.
During the Fox Eye Lift, a thin needle is carefully inserted beneath the skin with dissolvable threads made of materials like polydioxanone (PDO). These threads have small cones along their length that help to anchor them in place. Once inserted, the threads are gently pulled to lift the targeted areas of the face.
The lifting effect achieved by the threads helps elevate the eyes’ outer corners, resulting in a more lifted and elongated appearance. The procedure can also address sagging skin and improve the overall shape of the eyebrows.
Over time, the threads naturally dissolve within the body, but their lifting effect remains. This is because the threads stimulate collagen production, which helps to maintain an improved appearance.
Benefits of Fox Eye Threads
The fox eye thread lift offers several potential benefits for those seeking to enhance their eye appearance, such as:
Collagen Stimulation
Collagen is a protein that contributes to the skin’s structure and elasticity, enhancing texture and firmness. The threads used in the fox eye lift treatment promote collagen production in the targeted area, encouraging gradual improvements in the treated area’s skin quality and resilience.
Natural-looking Outcome
When performed by a skilled and experienced professional, the fox eye thread can provide natural-looking results. The gradual lift and collagen stimulation contribute to a more subtle and harmonious enhancement of the eye area.
Tailored Results
The procedure can be tailored to meet individual preferences and needs. The placement and tension of the threads can be adjusted to achieve the desired level of lift and contour, allowing for personalised results.
Non-surgical
Unlike traditional surgical procedures like brow lifts or facelifts, the fox eye thread lift is a non-surgical option. This means there is no need for large incisions, extensive downtime, or general anaesthesia, resulting in a quicker and easier recovery.
Eye Rejuvenation
The procedure can effectively rejuvenate the eyes by lifting and reshaping the eye area, giving a more youthful and refreshed look. It can address concerns such as sagging skin, droopy eyelids, and a tired appearance.
Minimally Invasive
The procedure involves the insertion of dissolvable threads under the skin, which minimises trauma and reduces the risk of scarring. It is considered a minimally invasive treatment with fewer associated risks compared to more invasive surgical alternatives.
