The Danger Behind The Latest Fox Eye Facelift Trend | This Morning

It's the latest non-surgical 'tweakment’ craved by celebrities and social media stars. Inspired by the likes of supermodels Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner, 'Fox Eye Facelifts' involve inserting plastic threads at the side of the eyes, to stretch the skin and create a new look. But despite supposedly being quick and ‘pain-free’, more and more people are reporting life-threatening side-effects. Influencer Ryan Ruckledge, who was gifted the procedure to promote it to his thousands of followers, was left hospitalised and claims he nearly died following complications. He joins us today to warn others against this "dangerous procedure", alongside leading facial aesthetic practitioner Dr Pamela Benito.

Social media has been a terrible influence.
Plastic surgery appears to cause more harm than good.
Good for him for telling people his story. Geez, he’s lucky.
Can people just start loving themselves for who they are. Hmm?

So he got a procedure from a random person with no research and no after care and decided the procedure itself is dangerous. Which is why he didn’t want to mention “the clinic”. This is like getting a tattoo from someone who bought the machine online and gave you a bad tattoo and you’re surprised 🙄

[midnightwitch]

This guy is good looking, he didn't need the foxeye, social media influence is toxic

[Mary_VW_]

The funniest part about this whole thing is the fact that the hosts say that Kendall Jenner and Bella Hadid have that look naturally 😬

[TheAymsa]

I’m sorry.
Anyone that chooses to do this themselves is solely responsible for any damage done.
Do they actually look in the mirror!?

There is a musical movie named “The repo men” it was based on an old comic and it was about ppl who would rent organs and if you couldn’t pay the repo men would come and take them back but it also had a huge freakish Plastic surgery and Adrenochrome theme and looking back todays society is getting more and more like that movie it’s insane.

[ThereseDavidson]

He's so funny and so brave! Thanks for speaking out

[vikram]

On a cosmic scale, this is more comedy than tragedy

[donna]

These British journalists are something else. The laughter would never happen in the USA. you will get shot at yhe grocery tho

[triggerfish]

"Social media influer". Also why aren't there more comments here?

[kezzokav]

Ryan is hilarious haha. Glad he's alright now, we've all done foolish things before.

[Hhhhaaattt]

I wouldn't let him anywhere near my face.

[Uraniumore]

I’ve been wanting to go through that fox eye surgery since I’ve heard about it, good thing is I don’t have the money for it lol

[Sue-vhfc]

Botox and fillers can only be purchased and administered by nurse practitioners. If he’s a nurse practitioner I’m a brain surgeon!! 😂. When he says he gives aesthetic treatments, perhaps he just means facials, because if he’s putting stuff in your face with a syringe, I’d run a mile 😂😂😂

[Liza-clgb]

Why is this predator still on this channel ? Poor young boy even being employed by itv. No shame !

[HabibaSouleymanou]

People going crazy with this surgery's 😢

[ljrockstar]

I don't get it, so they are transplanting the eye's of a fox into his eyes??? Why?

[Hazel]

Common as muck and seems a very odd guest with his posture and mannerisms 😖
