About Rib Remodeling

  • Minimally invasive surgical procedure designed to achieve a slimmer waistline.
  • Performed under general anesthesia and typically takes less than an hour.
  • Involves reshaping the lower ribs using a piezotome instrument (no rib removal).
  • Small incisions are made along the back, and the procedure is done with ultrasound guidance.
  • Results in up to 4 inches of waist reduction in some cases, with minimal discomfort.
  • Incisions are barely noticeable once healed.

Preoperative Requirements

  • CT scan of the chest to assess anatomy.
  • Ideal candidates are patients 45 years or younger, but those over 45 may still be eligible with a DEXA scan to check bone density.

Postoperative Care

  • Patients must wear a specialized corset for 3 months post-procedure to support healing.
  • Light workouts may be resumed after 2-3 months.

Combination Procedures

  • Rib Remodeling can be done alone or in combination with liposuction, tummy tuck, BBL, breast procedures, and mommy makeovers.

Recovery Time

  • The recovery period is 2-3 weeks, with some minor discomfort expected.
