Would rib removal and liposuction correct my asymmetry from scoliosis? (Photo)

Asked By:Abby133t in New York, NY

I have very bad frontal assymetry due to scoliosis that I can't stand, it bothers me a lot and makes clothes fit me poorly, is there anyway this could be corrected? I was thinking rib removal on my right side and fat transfer into one hip to even things out?
