RIBXCAR is an advanced rib remodeling procedure that dramatically enhances the waistline. However, achieving the ideal outcome depends 95% on how you manage the postoperative period, especially the use of the corset.

The rule is simple:

Wear the corset continuously for 3 months.

If you don’t, the surgery loses much of its meaning.

◆Why is the corset medically essential after RIBXCAR?

1. Rib repositioning requires about 3 months to stabilize

After RIBXCAR, the ribs and surrounding tissues are in a flexible, moldable state.

External pressure is necessary to “set” the new contour.

No corset = the ribs drift back

→ Waistline does not form properly

→ Surgical benefits diminish significantly

2. Fascia and soft tissue need sustained compression to reattach properly

Compression helps:

✔ Fix the waist curve

✔ Reduce swelling and bleeding

✔ Prevent tissue displacement

3. Preventing distortion during the 1–3 month adhesion phase

This period is the most vulnerable to:

• Skin irregularities
• Tissue misalignment
• Early asymmetry

The corset acts as a corrective device that guides proper healing.
