Pectus Carinatum in Females
Having a chest wall deformity – pectus carinatum – a condition where the chest protrudes outward can present unique challenges, especially for girls. They often span physical, emotional, and social dimensions including feelings of self-consciousness, reduced self-esteem, social withdrawal, and limited clothing options.
Some of the most common problems our female patients describe include: -chest pain -uneven breasts – shortness of breath -bra digs-in
This is why we created the T-Joe Pectus Brace for Girls. Pectus Services stands alone as the only provider to offer a comfortable, low-profile version of our renowned T-Joe Pectus Brace specifically for developed females. The design allows for the safe correction of a carinatum deformity while not pressing on sensitive breast tissue.
Through the years we replaced so many horrifying medieval looking braces! They are often painful; may not work; uncomfortable and unsafe as they may harm young, still developing breast tissue and the lymph glands within the breast. After their parents brought them to one of our Pectus Centers they were fitted with a customized T-Joe Female Pectus Brace.
Our brace is generously padded, wrapped in soft, hygienic, warm washable covers. Oh – and the covers come in pink or purple! We have many successful female outcomes. We have replaced many Before and After photos are available shown privately only.
The T-Joe Pectus Brace for Girls
The Female T-Joe Brace isn’t flat like others but molds and re-shapes the chest into a more natural appearance creating a wide swooping curve between the breasts as compared to our males who get a sharper crease between the pecs or chest muscles. We hope this gives an explanation of our unique and very personalized care provided to our female patients.
Lastly it’s important to know that our female patients are provided the utmost in medical privacy and professionalism during their appointment.
