am I able to hide my mild pectus excavatum with implants and if so is there a certain size or type of implant that would hide the indent better so that I can have cleavage like the attached picture?

Answer: Pectus excavatum Dear MommyMakeover48, implants can help camouflage pectus excavatum. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Pectus Correction Good evening, The simple answer is yes- implants can camouflage your pectus and give you normal cleavage- but the size and profile really need to be determined when I measure your chest, we review photos together, and you have an opportunity to try on the implant sizers here in the office. This usually requires two different sizes to establish good symmetry, and sometimes even different profile implants!
