Ari Fletcher is opening up about one of the most intense cosmetic procedures she has undergone, sharing details about an experimental “internal bra” surgery that she says left her in some of the worst pain she has ever experienced.
During a recent livestream with Jordyn Lucas, Ari spoke candidly about her surgical history and identified the procedure as the most difficult of them all. Describing the experience in her own words, she said it felt like having a “metal bra” drilled directly into her ribs, a detail that quickly drew attention online.
The procedure Ari referred to is known as the Orbix Breast Support System, sometimes called an internal bra. It is designed to provide additional support during breast lift surgeries or revisions. The system uses a silicone or mesh scaffold that is inserted between the breast tissue and muscle, then anchored to the ribs with small, biocompatible screws. The goal is to create a long-lasting lift that holds the breasts in place, reducing the need for traditional underwire support.
Ari explained that she underwent the procedure as part of a revision surgery aimed at correcting sagging and repositioning her implants closer together. While the results are intended to create a more lifted and structured appearance, she emphasized that the recovery process was especially difficult, describing it as “the worst” and among the toughest pains she has endured.
The internal bra technique is often discussed as a way to achieve a more defined, “snatched” look, functioning similarly to a push-up bra but built into the body. Despite its growing visibility, the Orbix system has not yet received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and questions remain about its long-term use.
