Square body shape - Best method for body shaping? (Photos)

Hello experts! I have some insecurites regarding my bone structure. I am decently happy with my butt, it doesnt bother me, but a small bit of volume would be beneficial in that area. My main concern is my overall squareish shape. My rib cage is wide, making my waist wide, and my hips are extremely narrow. What would be the best way to correct this? Should i get surgery on my ribs to contour them smaller and give the illusion of fuller hips? I heard rib remodeling surgery is pretty easy to recover from, but iv also heard that the “corsets” they use after the surgery are not proper and id be wise to get a custom fitted one. Or should i address my hip area to give the illusion of a smaller waist? When i gain weight, i mostly gain it in my upper body. even at my heaviest of 160 pounds, i my hips and thighs and butt never filled in or hung onto fat, which makes me feel like a traditional fat grafting/BBL wouldnt be idea for me since my bidy doesnt like to hold fat there. I have also heard of liquid BBLs, so fill in hip dips, but i feel like the cost doesnt justify the short term results that go away after a couple years. Is there another option im missing here?? I work out regularly and eat pretty healthy. I’m 5’6 and 125 pounds currently.
