What is waist reduction?
An hourglass figure or wasp waist accentuates the feminine shape of the body. This is a much more pronounced waistline in relation to the hips.
Within the standards of beauty, this body shape is one of the most sought after among those who wish to associate their body with femininity.
We are referring to a standard of beauty that has always been desired throughout the years and is currently back in vogue.

How can this innovative technique reduce a patient’s waistline?
Liposuction is the most commonly recommended procedure among cosmetic surgery methods for attaining an hourglass figure.
Nevertheless, some patients are not overweight or carry excessive fat. In this group, these individuals are often athletic or very slender, yet lack a defined waistline. In such cases, liposuction cannot resolve the issue.
At Clínica Planas, we offer an innovative waist reduction technique that can be applied to all types of people, even those who are not eligible for liposuction. How? Through an innovative surgical technique that involves moving the two floating ribs without removing them.
In this case, an aesthetic result can be achieved without removing anything.

Clínica Planas: prominent European benchmark for this technique
Clínica Planas is one of the few centres in Europe that performs this innovative procedure, which involves mobilising floating ribs without removing them.
Until now, waist reduction techniques were aggressive and involved certain risks and complications that were difficult to accept.
The surgeons at Clínica Planas have received theoretical and practical training from Dr Kudzaev Kazbek, who developed the technique in Russia.
Our clinic and its medical team are fully endorsed by Dr Kudzaev Kazbek.
Advantages
The natural desire to shape one's body is a possibility for anyone. Waist reduction is an innovative technique designed to slim and give a feminine shape to the figure.
1. 30-minute procedure
2. No associated medical leave.
3. The patient returns home on the same day as the surgery.
4. The procedure is virtually painless.
Minimally invasive waist reduction
Preoperative
As with all procedures, it is essential to undergo a medical examination beforehand to detect any possible abnormalities that could contraindicate surgery.
If the patient regularly takes any type of medication, both the doctor and the anaesthetist will instruct them on the steps to follow.
In addition, a CT scan is performed to visualise the position of the floating ribs prior to surgery.
Postoperative care
After surgery, the patient must take painkillers for the first few days and wear a corset for between 1 and 3 months. This helps the waist form into its final shape.
During the first month, it is recommended that you lead a quiet life; this means walking, driving and leading a relatively normal life; however, you should not engage in high-impact sports or risky activities.
F.A.Q.
-
Waist reduction What makes it a minimally invasive procedure?
The waist reduction technique we perform at Clínica Planas is minimally invasive because:
1. We do not remove any ribs.
2. We do not move the ribs from their place.
3. We do not alter the functional engagement of these ribs.
4. We simply change their shape to achieve a much more stylish waistline. -
Is the surgery painful?
Minimally invasive waist reduction is a simple, short procedure performed under local anaesthetic and is not painful. During the postoperative period, the patient should take painkillers for a few days and can resume normal activities 24 hours after the procedure.
-
What can I do 24 hours after surgery?
This is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure. The patient returns home on the same day as the operation and therefore does not need to be hospitalised. The patient may resume normal activities twenty-four hours after surgery. Although this timeframe is approximate and depends on each individual, we can give some examples: the day after the procedure, the patient can walk, drive, and even return to work.
-
Waist reduction: is it possible to customise the result?
Yes, this highly versatile technique permits customisable results. Some people prefer not to have a very defined waist, while others strive for a wasp waist. At Clínica Planas, we can work together with the patient to personalise the result. How? The solution entails adjusting the corset to defined waist or a much more subtle result.
-
How long should I wear the corset after minimally invasive waist reduction surgery?
After surgery, a corset must be worn for two or three months to ensure that the rib mobilisation performed in the operating theatre is maintained permanently. Wearing the corset for 90 days, following the surgeon's instructions, accounts for 50% of the success of this surgical technique.
-
Are there any contraindications?
There are no contraindications. Just note that contact sports should be avoided for up to 12 weeks and it is necessary to follow the surgeon's instructions to ensure the best possible outcome.
-
Will it have any effect on my respiratory system?
The indiscriminate use of waist belts can cause deformation, and aggressive methods for removing ribs can compromise respiratory mechanics. However, the Kudzaev technique performed at Clínica Planas only changes the shape of the floating ribs, so they continue to perform their function: protecting the posterior abdominal organs. Our technique has no impact on the ventilatory mechanics of your respiratory system.
Expert opinion
Sometimes, a slim waist cannot be achieved through diet, exercise or liposuction because the shape of the muscles or bones does not allow it, but thanks to this minimally invasive technique, it can be achieved without putting your health at risk.
