An influential and former Big Brother roommate warned against a “fox-eye” facelift after claiming he was hospitalized with a serious infection after receiving free treatment.
Ryan Ruckledge, 30, from Blackpool, told Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield on This Morning how he got the 20-minute procedure, a minimally invasive, non-surgical procedure that lifts eyebrows and the outer corners of the eyes.
However, the influencer said she later woke up feeling like she had been hit by a bus, and two weeks later her face was so infected that it started swelling and oozing pus.
He was hospitalized, at one point doctors feared the six-month-long infection could be sepsis.
Explaining that he woke up at 6 am after the operation, the 30-year-old actress said, “When I woke up, I said ‘Oh my God, did the bus hit me?’ I said, ‘He was terrible.’
Earlier this morning, Ryan Ruckledge, 30, from Blackpool, warned of “fox eyes” after he claimed he was left in hospital with a serious infection after free treatment.

The infection started two weeks later, causing her face to swell, and doctors worried it might be sepsis and took her to the hospital.

Ryan admitted that he was offered £500 fox-eye makeup free of charge in exchange for promoting the company on his Instagram account, and that he had not done any prior research.
Ryan, who participated in the program today, said that he was offered a free £500 fox-eye removal via text message in exchange for promoting the company on his Instagram account and that he had not done any research before.
The £500 treatment uses soluble stitches to create almond-shaped eyes with raised tails and aims to provide women with a raised forehead and upper eyelid lift without the time of surgery because it only takes half an hour and needs to heal completely in less than two weeks. .
So-called fox-eye thread lifts, clinics advertise the procedure on social media sites with before and after videos of patients, with the corners of the eyes swept up and back dramatically.
The looks of American A-list models Bella Hadid and Kim Kardashian’s sister Kendall Jenner are often cited as inspiration, and in the UK, Katie Price and Danielle Lloyd have admitted to getting treatment.

After the procedure, Ryan said he woke up like he had been “hit by a bus” and was taken to the hospital.
What is fox-eye removal?
how it works
Costing between £350 and £500, the fox-eye thread lift procedure involves injections of local anesthetic around the temples before a cannula – a thin, hollow tube with a blunt end – is pushed under the skin.
A thread is inserted into the cannula and pulled upwards with a needle and light hand movements. At the bottom of the thread are small wavy discs that attach to the facial tissue and pull the skin up and fix it in place.
A finger is then placed on the end of the wire to keep it taut as the cannula is withdrawn.
Because the procedure involves a self-healing single needle puncture, it is not technically considered surgical.
downtime
The suture dissolves over time with minimal side effects. Skin folds and needle scars heal completely within 3-10 days and leave a natural stretch.
Cost
Costs average between 500 € – 750 €.
How much will it take?
The result lasts up to a year.
How is it different from surgery?
There is no permanent change in your face and no part of the eyelid is cut as in eyelid correction. You can also adjust the changes after the treatment if you want a less dramatic look.
He described the procedure and said it wasn’t “too painful” because the area had been numbed beforehand.
But he admitted: “He was pretty strong.
He threaded a thread on my brow, but I also threaded on my cheeks.
“I wanted a more lively look.”
After waking up, however, she felt unwell, saying: “After a few days it started to swell, but I thought, ‘This is probably normal.’
“The infection started about two weeks later.”
He continued: ‘I went to the doctors to get antibiotics and they didn’t help me.
‘I went to the hospital for a drop of antibiotic. There was nothing to be saved.
He continued: “My body was actually reacting to the thread in my eyes.
“With this raised gaze it should have resolved and healed after a few months, but my eye did not heal because of rejection.
“All the pus came out and I had to deal with it myself.”
In addition to doctors’ concerns that he may have contracted sepsis, Ryan has previously talked about how the procedure could leave him “blind.”
After the show showed photos of his swollen face and the results of the procedure, Ryan joked: “Imagine trying to draw a man like this, I look like an avatar!”
“I don’t see support in post-op care, no,” Ryan said when the hosts asked the clinic’s help after the procedure.
Ryan added that the experience really impacted his mental health. The 30-year-old actress said, “I didn’t want to go out.
“When I went out, people looked at me like I was a monster. It really affected me mentally”.
And she admitted that she wanted to have corrective surgery because she believed that one eyelid had drooped more than the other and that she looked “aged.”
Meanwhile, Ryan also revealed how guilty he feels about promoting the case on his social media.
Holly and Philip later met with facial esthetician Dr. They spoke to Pamela Benito and she said that the fox-eye removal is not without risk, but it can be done safely.

Ryan added that the experience really affected his mental health and that he didn’t want to go out because he felt “kind of a beast.”

Holly and Philip later met with facial esthetician Dr. Pamela spoke to Benito and she said that fox-eye removal is not without risk, but it can be done safely.
He said it’s important for people to do their research and find the right doctor who is clinically qualified and knows what they’re doing.
“It’s a shame to go wrong, and any medical procedure has risks,” he said.
Dr. Pamela also explained that people should consult with them before the procedure.
The end of false lips? Experts want fillers to be prescription-only in print in UK’s ‘wild west’ cosmetics market
Lawmakers said dermal fillers and lip injections should only be done by prescription to protect the public from failed cosmetic procedures on their faces.
Experts said the move to a prescription model would put pressure on cowboy practitioners by making medical professionals responsible for delivering treatments.
Brits need to have a personal consultation with a doctor who can prescribe like a doctor and explain the risks and benefits of the procedure.
Professor David Sines, chairman of the Joint Council of Cosmetic Practitioners, called for the use of dermal filler injectors that release various substances under the skin.
According to the current rules, a British beautician does not require mandatory qualifications, which means that anyone can complete basic training and then undergo treatment with fillers.
Comments were made at a session on the impact of body image on mental and physical health from the Health and Society Commission to parliamentarians.
“We strongly believe they should be prescription-only devices, because if they were, there would be a need for prescriber oversight, which would provide greater protection for the public,” said Professor Sines.
Many women, thousands of Brits, have dermal fillers, a procedure in which a substance, usually hyaluronic acid, is injected into the face each year to fill in wrinkles or make lips and cheekbones appear larger or more prominent.
The procedure has exploded in recent years as women struggle to look like celebrities like Kylie Jenner and Kim Kardashian, worrying experts who fear the British will fall victim to a largely unregulated cosmetics industry.
