bella eyes explained: the fox-eye surgery trend

5 fake ways to get the bella eyes effect

Fox eye (Bella Eyes)

What is bella eyes?

About the trend

bella eyes is a popular aesthetic surgery trend of recent years.
The procedure takes its name from American model Bella Hadid, who was one of the first to have it done.
It is a surgical technique that lasts one to two hours and uses endoscopic methods.
The procedure can be combined with an endoscopic brow lift, a forehead lift, blepharoplasty, and canthoplasty in the same session.

The surgeon makes a tiny incision of about 0.5 cm in the scalp, hidden within the hair.
Through this opening, the shape of the eye and brow is adjusted to create a more slanted, lifted look.
The scar stays hidden inside the hair, so it is not visible after healing.

Non-surgical alternatives

Non-surgical options

Some people avoid surgery, or want to skip the cost, and use cosmetic tricks that mimic the fox-eye look.
Here are five of the most common.

1. Lifting the brows with makeup

Using makeup, you can lift each brow slightly upward to suggest the lift, even if only as an illusion.
Redraw the outer corner of each brow in a higher position.
A professional cosmetician can shape the look to suit your face.

2. Fluffing the outer lashes

To add fox-eye charm, sweep your lashes slightly outward and lift the outer corners.
Fill the inner part of the lash line very lightly so the change looks natural.
This small trick gives your gaze the magnetic pull of a fox eye.

3. Drawing wings on the outer eye

Drawing a wing at the outer corner of each eye is another popular trick.
Long, thin wings add the lifted effect without any surgery.

4. A temple braid

Another way to mimic the look is to braid the section of hair near your temple tightly.
The tension pulls the skin between the temple and the brow upward.
This trick can smooth small wrinkles in that area while giving you the lifted gaze.

5. Hair accessories

You can achieve the same lift with hair accessories instead of a braid.
Use a hair clip near the temple to pull the hair back and create the fox-eye effect.

The bottom line

Conclusion

None of these tricks can match a true bella eyes surgery.
Their effect is also short-lived.
A procedure performed by a qualified plastic surgeon, however, comes with what is essentially a lifetime guarantee.
This can vary depending on each patient's individual healing and anatomy.
