What Is The Foxeye Package?
The Foxeye Package is a comprehensive cosmetic procedure designed to lift and elongate the outer corners of the eyes and eyebrows, creating a more youthful and almond-shaped appearance reminiscent of a fox’s eyes. This package typically combines surgical and non-surgical techniques to achieve an elevated lateral canthus and a smoother periocular area. Under the expert care of Dr. Waleed Ezzat, a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon, patients receive personalized treatment plans that focus on enhancing their natural beauty while maintaining individual anatomical characteristics.
How Does The Foxeye Package Work?
The Foxeye Package works by addressing the position of the eyebrows and the shape of the eyes through a combination of procedures. Dr. Ezzat employs advanced surgical techniques to lift the outer brows and tighten the surrounding skin, resulting in an elevated and elongated eye contour.
