Houston-based Morales Plastic Surgery, led by Rolando Morales, MD, announces the launch of the Corset Contour procedure, designed to deliver a more defined, hourglass-shaped waistline. The Corset Contour reshapes and repositions the lower ribs without the need for rib removal, providing a slimmer, more proportionate waistline.
Unlike traditional rib removal, this method adjusts the shape and position of ribs 11 and 12—the floating ribs—using ultrasound-guided precision. This maintains the ribs’ structural integrity while allowing patients to achieve a “snatched” waistline with a natural appearance.
Inside the Corset Contour Procedure
“The Corset Contour is an excellent option for individuals who have struggled to achieve their ideal body shape through diet and exercise alone. This procedure is designed to provide long-lasting results that enhance body proportions while ensuring the patient’s safety and comfort,” says Morales.
The Corset Contour procedure reshapes the lower ribs to create a narrower waist. It provides lasting results and can be combined with techniques like liposuction or a tummy tuck.
During the procedure, ultrasound imaging helps locate and reshape the lower ribs. Through small incisions, the rib structure is adjusted with minimal scarring. After surgery, patients wear a compression garment and corset to support healing, with results improving over time.
