Title: Where can i find info about orthopedic surgeries?

Like reducing rib cage width or narrowing the shoulders?

I spoke to a senior surgeon, told me these procedures are not commonly performed, but there are well accepted procedures for similar conditions.                                                Thoracic /orthopedic surgeons may perform these surgeries in safe methods such as:

This is very interesting, perhaps others can elaborate on such procedures and of relative safety/risks and of their availability.

Trans socialite Amanda Lapore did this. The procedure was extreme though, involved cracking lower ribs and bracing, she said it took a long time to heal, I'm sure it was worth it though. She has an hour glass figure. Sad part is to actually find a doctor willing to do it. Sounds painful :o
