Softening Angular Waist Infolding
The angular waist infolding procedure uses ultrasound-based softening on the 10th to 12th floating ribs to improve tissue pliability before guiding the rib contour inward. Ligaments and muscles are fixed under endoscopic guidance to support waistline reshaping and a more defined hourglass contour. The procedure is designed to be less invasive, and in selected cases the core adjustment step may be planned as a relatively short operation. Surgical duration, discomfort level, recovery timeline, and final contour vary by individual. A custom compression garment may be recommended after surgery to support postoperative shaping.
