Bony upper chest? (photo)

Question

Please see my picture - can anything be done about my bony upper chest? As you can see, it's more of the rib cage that shows (my collar bone isn't too bony.) About how much would such a treatment cost and if not permanent, about how often would I need to re-do it to maintain the result? Thanks!

Dear alreadyregisteredThank you for your question and photo!  The shaping of the area above the breasts can be difficult- with risk of irregularity- due to the thinness of your tissues.  Perhaps the best result could be achieved with an oversized BRAVA pre expansion of the area and fat grafting.With Warm RegardsTrevor M Born MD

Fat grafting may help, but to make this decision you would need to be seen in person and evaluated.Good LuckStephen m. Davis, MD, FACSGreen Hills Plastic surgery

Subcutaneous fat softens contours all over the body; the chest/décolleté can be a major focus of a woman's fashioning. In many woman fat is lost prematurely.Fat grafting work very well and is a frequently performed with high satisfaction  because it successfully addresses these concernsThere are no guarantees with any procedure however the vast majority of cases are treated successfully with one procedureHope this helps

The area you need treated is far outside the breast area.Fat transfer is one option. There are inherent limitations to how much fat can be transferred.Best of luck,Mats Hagstrom, M.D.
