RIBXCAR TAKES JAPAN: A Revolutionary Seminar in Body Contouring
The upcoming seminar,
RIBXCAR TAKES JAPAN, promises to be a monumental event in the field of aesthetic surgery. Scheduled for
April 7-9, 2026, at
Casa de GRACIA GINZA in Tokyo, this three-day program will focus on advanced body contouring techniques, featuring the renowned surgeon,
Dr. Raúl Manzaneda Cipriani. This initiative stands as an evolution of the previous seminar held in November 2025, which celebrated the successful introduction of the
RIBXCAR technique.
Understanding the Background of the Seminar
In stark contrast to traditional cosmetic surgery focused primarily on fat removal, Dr. Manzaneda’s approach revolves around
redesigning skeletal structures and reconstructing ideal body proportions. The first seminar received overwhelming feedback from both domestic and international participants, and as a response to the demand for more inclusive body sculpting education, the upcoming event will extend its curriculum to cover techniques targeting not only the ribcage but also the pelvis and buttocks.
A Rare Opportunity for Live Surgery Training
One of the standout features of this seminar is its inclusion of
live surgery sessions conducted by the technique’s developer, an offering that is exceedingly rare within the Asian region. This provides a unique and invaluable learning opportunity for participating doctors who aspire to master advanced body contouring skills directly from a leading expert in the field.
Overcoming Limitations in Body Contouring Techniques
Currently, body contouring methods that involve skeletal remodeling, like
RIBXCAR, are offered by very few clinics throughout Japan and Asia. Dr. Manzaneda's technique re-establishes not just fat removal but focuses on the
redesign of the body’s anatomy, representing a next-generation solution catering to diverse patient needs. The seminar aims to broaden the reach of such state-of-the-art techniques in the region.
Support from Aesthetic Xpert Scientific Lab
This seminar is proudly supported by the
Aesthetic Xpert Scientific Lab (AX), a leading institution in the education and implementation of international cosmetic medical technologies. Dr. Takao Higuchi, who serves as a board member and official ambassador for AX Asia, ensures that Japan's clinical practices adopt world-class methods securely and efficiently through a robust partnership with AX.
