Round Rib Cage
When you're planning to undergo breast enlargement in Sacramento, your body type is one of the many important factors you and your plastic surgeon must take into consideration. For some women, the shape of the rib cage should play a very key role in decision-making.
Whether implants are placed above or below the chest muscle, they rest flush against the underlying rib cage. Most patients have a slight curvature of their chests underneath their breasts but the curve doesn't become marked until the sides of the body. In some cases the chest cavity is very round, or barrel shaped.
From the standpoint of geometry, implants will point outward from a line drawn tangent to the chest wall at the location of the areola. In plain English, this means that if you have a round chest your implants will face a bit more outward and you will have less cleavage than someone with a flatter chest.
There really isn't anything you can do to change the basic structure of your chest. What you can do is listen carefully when consulting Dr. Kaufman or Dr. Clark about Sacramento breast enlargement. They'll take the time to explain what you need to consider so you understand what implants can accomplish for you and the limitations of your procedure.
