The FoxEye Package: Boston's Premier Fox Eye Lift Procedure

The FoxEye Package is a customized combination of surgical and non-surgical treatments designed to lift and elongate the outer corners of the eyes and brows, creating an upswept, almond-shaped contour. At the Boston Center for Facial Plastics, double board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Waleed Ezzat — whose practice is devoted exclusively to the face — designs each plan around your individual anatomy, ensuring results that look naturally refreshed rather than overdone.

What's Included in The FoxEye Package?

The package is not a fixed protocol. Dr. Ezzat determines the appropriate combination of treatments based on your anatomy, degree of brow descent, and desired longevity of results. Options may include:

Temporal Brow Lift: Surgically elevates the outer third of the brow for long-lasting lift at the brow tail. For patients seeking a permanent fox eye result, this is often the foundation of the package.
Canthoplasty or Canthopexy: Repositions the outer eye corner (lateral canthus) for an almond-shaped contour. Canthoplasty involves reconstruction of the lateral canthal tendon; canthopexy is a more conservative repositioning for patients with minimal laxity.
Botox Fox Eye Lift: Targeted neuromodulator injections (Botox and Dysport) relax the depressor muscles pulling the lateral brow downward, producing a gentle non-surgical lift with no downtime and visible results within 7–14 days.

Are You a Candidate for a Fox Eye Lift?

The FoxEye Package may be appropriate for you if:

You have a descended or heavy outer brow that creates a tired or stern appearance at rest
You want a more elongated, upswept eye contour without an obvious or exaggerated change
You prefer to start non-surgically before exploring a more lasting solution
You are in good health with realistic expectations about your individual outcome
You are looking to complement a planned eyelid surgery or brow lift with targeted fox eye refinement

This package may not be the right starting point for patients with significant upper eyelid ptosis, dry eye conditions, or very thin periorbital skin. Dr. Ezzat evaluates brow position, eyelid anatomy, and facial symmetry during your consultation to determine the safest, most effective approach. Patients who would benefit more from upper blepharoplasty or ptosis repair will be advised accordingly.

What to Expect For Your FoxEye Package Procedure

Before Your Procedure

Your consultation includes a thorough evaluation of your brow position, upper eyelid anatomy, and facial proportions, along with a candid discussion of realistic outcomes. Pre-treatment instructions will be provided, which may include pausing blood thinners and NSAIDs before your appointment.

During Your Procedure

A Botox fox eye lift is completed in approximately 20–30 minutes in-office without anesthesia. A PDO thread lift takes 45–60 minutes under local anesthesia. Surgical procedures — temporal brow lift or canthoplasty — typically require 1–2 hours under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia.

After Your Procedure

Phase	What to Expect
Days 1–3	Mild swelling and bruising; most patients rest at home
Days 4–7	Swelling subsides; non-surgical patients return to light activity
Weeks 1–2	Botox results fully visible; surgical patients continue healing
Weeks 2–4	Social downtime resolves for most surgical patients
Months 1–3	Final results visible as all swelling resolves; surgical results stabilize

Out-of-state and international patients are welcome through our Fly-In Program, which provides a coordinated experience from virtual consultation through post-procedure follow-up.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a fox eye lift procedure?

A fox eye lift creates an upward tilt at the outer eye corners and a lifted brow tail. It can be achieved through Botox injections, PDO threads, a temporal brow lift, or canthoplasty — depending on your anatomy and desired longevity of results.

Is a Botox fox eye lift safe?

Yes, when performed by an experienced facial specialist. Dr. Ezzat's injection technique is grounded in expert periorbital anatomy knowledge, minimizing risks such as brow asymmetry or unintended muscle relaxation.

How long does a Botox fox eye lift last?

Approximately 3–4 months. Consistent maintenance treatments can sustain results over time and may gradually enhance them as targeted depressor muscles become more conditioned.

What is recovery like after fox eye surgery?

Botox patients return to normal activity the same day. Thread lift patients typically resume daily routines within a few days. Surgical patients generally expect 1–2 weeks of social downtime, with final results visible at approximately 6–8 weeks.

Can The FoxEye Package be combined with other procedures?

Yes. It is frequently combined with eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty), rhinoplasty, or facelift, allowing multiple concerns to be addressed within a single recovery period.

Does Dr. Ezzat see patients from outside Boston?

Yes. In addition to patients from Cambridge, Brookline, Newton, and Wellesley, Dr. Ezzat welcomes out-of-state and international patients through our Fly-In Program.
