Ultrasonic Waist Design in Cancun

Dreaming of a dramatically sculpted, hourglass silhouette? Ultrasonic Waist Design, also known as Rib Resection, is a specialized procedure performed by Dr. Arturo Valdez, a leading board-certified plastic surgeon in Cancun. This advanced technique helps to significantly define and narrow the feminine waistline.

Dr. Valdez achieves a refined silhouette by carefully reshaping the length and direction of your “floating ribs” (the 11th and 12th ribs). We utilize the most advanced ultrasound-assisted tools to precisely mold the curves of your hips and waistline. This surgery is often performed in combination with other body contouring procedures, such as high-definition liposculpture or a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), for a comprehensive and harmonious result.

What is a Ultrasonic Waist Design?

Ultrasonic Waist Design, also known as Rib Resection, is a specialized procedure focused on significantly narrowing and defining the feminine waistline.

Get Started

Am I a Good Candidate for Ultrasonic Waist Design in Cancun?

Dissatisfied With Your Waist

This procedure is ideal if you seek a significant reduction in waist diameter and a more defined hourglass or inverted triangle shape.

You Have Specific Rib Anatomy

Candidates typically have prominent 11th and 12th “floating ribs” whose position contributes to a less defined waistline.

Near Your Ideal Weight

Ultrasonic Waist Design is for sculpting and defining, not weight loss. You should be at a stable, healthy weight.

General Good Health

You should be in generally good health without conditions that could impair healing.

Realistic Expectations

Understanding the specific, yet transformative, nature of rib reshaping is key to being satisfied with your results.

Non-Smoker

Smoking can impair wound healing, and increase the risk of complications.

The Lip Lift Procedure: What to Expect

Step 1—Anesthesia

Anesthesia is administered to ensure your complete comfort and safety throughout the surgery. Dr. Valdez will discuss the options with you.

Step 2—The Incision(s)

Small, discreet incisions are strategically made, typically along the lower back, to allow access to the ribs.

Step 3—Rib Revision

Through these incisions, Dr. Valdez carefully reshapes the 11th and 12th “floating ribs” using advanced ultrasonic tools. This precise modification aims to reduce your waist diameter and create a more defined hourglass silhouette.

Step 4—Closing the Incisions

Once the desired waist contour is achieved, the small incisions are meticulously closed with sutures, and compression garments are applied.

Step 5—Recovery Time

Expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort, managed with medication. Most patients can resume light activities within a few weeks, with full recovery taking several months as swelling completely subsides. Dr. Valdez will provide detailed post-operative instructions.

Step 6—The Results

While initial improvements are visible, your final, sculpted waistline will emerge as swelling resolves. The treated area will appear significantly narrower and more defined, enhancing your overall body proportions. Maintaining a stable weight will help preserve your lasting results.

Frequently Asked Questions
