Removal of the lower ribs.

Beauty requires sacrifice, and sometimes the organs that our body needs are the victims of beauty. In search of ways to improve body parameters, women resort to various tricks: diet, corsets, exercise equipment and, of course, plastic surgery. Not spared these methods and the waist, the object of female pride and male attention. When it is not possible to change the thickness of the waist using affordable and painless methods, some of the fairer sex decide on cardinal methods - removal of the lower pair of ribs.

Although the lower pair of ribs is considered, as it were, optional, but at the moments of injury, it also protects the internal organs from pressure, bruising, taking on the entire load of the blow. Where a lower pair of ribs may be needed: in an accident, in an unsuccessful fall, when significant pressure can be exerted on a part of the body from the back - a blow.

And yet, in the name of a thin waist, many women are willing to take risks. What does the operation to remove the lower ribs promise? When the lower ribs (pairs 12 and 11) are removed, the muscles that were previously pulled over these ribs by a corset are shortened, due to which the waist parameters decrease, the figure begins to resemble an hourglass ("wasp waist"). Usually, it is not recommended to remove the eleventh pair of ribs, but only the twelfth pair.

The operation to remove the last pair of ribs is performed under general anesthesia and requires a rehabilitation period of at least six months to restore the body. On the back (slightly to the side), scars remain, which all have a different degree of visibility (depending on the regenerative characteristics of the skin).

Subsequently, a woman will have to protect internal organs from external influences. After an operation of this kind, complications in the form of prolapse of organs (kidneys) are possible.

Removal of the lower ribs is not recommended for overweight women, since fat deposits will not allow to form a narrow waist. In such cases, the operation to remove the lower ribs is combined with liposuction.
