Safe Surgery and New Trend: Rib Removal
Mr Lambe was invited to ITV This Morning studios in London on Wednesday this week (9 December 2026) to talk about the new and upcoming trend of rib removal surgery.
The trend, sometimes known as RibXcar surgery, has been led from the US and a lady called Dani Cesar joined the call live from Miami, Florida to talk about her own experiences of the surgery.
Plastic Surgery and Safety
Interviewers for the day were Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley and Ben asked Gerard to explain what is involved in the surgery.
He responded “it involves making very tiny puncture incisions at the back and then using a special tool, it’s an ultrasound drill. You make very small perforations in one side of the rib and the surgeon pushes and you hear it crack and it moves it in.
It can be done very quickly and it can be done relatively safely, The reports on it say it’s relatively safe but as everything there’s a small risk with complications and things like a collapsed lung or bleeding in the lung are potential problems.’
Future Surgery in the UK?
When asked “Do we do it here, his response was “No, we don’t do it here yet and our association, the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, isn’t endorsing it”.
But trends that start in the US often make it over to the UK, so the message is, Watch this Space!
Well, they always tell me, “But you’re skinny. You don’t need to do that. But why are you doing that?” But I do it for me because if it makes me happy, why would I hear of what other people say?
Of course, I take their advice, but at the end of the day, it’s my decision.
It’s my body. It’s my choice. So, I pretty much do what I what I want to do, what makes me happy.
