Dr Hasan — İzmir

With a patented Ribella® Procedure granted in 2024, Hasan Ersöz offers a scar-free approach to rib reshaping for patients dealing with rib flare deformities. At DR Pectus, he works as a thoracic surgeon treating pectus and chest wall deformities across both surgical and non-surgical pathways. His technique set includes Nuss-based minimally invasive repair for pectus excavatum and MIRPC/Abramson-type repair for pectus carinatum, where the goal is to reposition the sternum using metal bars and fixation methods. For rib flare, the Flare Buster Technique is described as using steel wires during MIRPE/MIRPC to correct the flare component.

For patients seeking rib-focused contouring, Ribella® is presented as a method aimed at slimming and reshaping the waist without traditional surgical scarring. DR Pectus also describes a 3D silicone implant approach for pectus excavatum correction, alongside options such as vacuum bell treatment and orthosis (brace) therapy for pectus carinatum. The clinic’s process for Ribella® includes an initial step where patients send a preliminary assessment form via WhatsApp, followed by a personal review and an online consultation.
