Surgical waist shaping

Before removing the ribs, the patient should have: complete blood count and urinalysis to assess metabolism, identify latent inflammatory process, as well as hepatic function; ECG to identify contraindications or abnormalities of the cardiovascular system; chest x-ray or MRI to evaluate visually the size of a pair of false ribs.

Перед удалением ребер пациент сдает:

• общий анализ крови и мочи для оценки обмена веществ, выявления скрытого воспалительного процесса, а также обследование печени;
• ЭКГ — для выявления противопоказаний или отклонений со стороны сердечно-сосудистой системы;
• рентген или МРТ грудной клетки — для визуальной оценки размеров ложной пары ребер.

Having examination results, the client is appointed to a plastic surgeon. If all parameters are normal and there are no contraindications, then the doctor assigns a day of surgery, explaining the procedure and the stages of recovery. It is not recommended to perform the surgery during menstruation (during this period the risk of bleeding and appearance of haematoma increases)

In the operating room the client undergoes local anaesthesia (if desired, and there are no contraindications, general anaesthesia is also possible). The surgeon makes small incisions in the area of the 11-th and 12-th pairs of ribs. Using tools, the surgeon corrects the shape of bones, moving it in a downward direction and toward the centre. Suture after resection. Due to the change in the anatomical position of ribs, abdominal muscles contract forming a new, thinner silhouette. The result is a difference of up to 10 centimetres in a body volume after the recovery period is completed.

After surgery, the patient is transferred to the ward.

Removal of the lower ribs requires a period of rehabilitation. After surgery, the client puts on a fixing corset (bandage). He/she must wear it for 3 months. The system of belts and suspenders fixes the trimmed ribs in the new position during the callus formation. Following a month of recovery, you can start running, training and wear any clothes.

Removal of the lower ribs (formation of a new rib position) is a surgical intervention that has its own risks and requires a recovery period. The operation is not carried out in case of excessive fat in the abdomen and ribs area. If there are fat folds, then plastic surgeons advise the liposuction procedure, cryolipolysis, intralipotherapy, ultrasonic liposuction or weight loss with the help of diets before surgery.
