23 y.o. F 5’8”; 125 lbs I realize this may not be a strictly plastic surgery issue. My PEX has never been formally evaluated so I don’t know the severity (how severe based on CXR?), but I do believe that I have mild sx’s. I’ve been told not to do the Nuss surgery by a cardiothoracic surgeon unless sx’s are severe bc of the painful recovery. I’d love to get implants to mask the defect and improve the appearance of my breasts but worried sx’s +posture would worsen. Advice and recommendations?
