Am I A Good Candidate For Clavicle Reduction Surgery?

Q: Dr. Eppley, I am interested in a clavicle reduction. Am I a good candidate for the surgery? I measured my chest with a ruler and from edge to edge(between the two green lines I drew) I am 48 cm overall.

A:Technically anyone can have their shoulders reduced. What makes someone a good candidate is whether the surgery can achieve their aesthetic shoulder reduction goal. At 48cm bideltoid width with the ability of surgery to drop you down to ay least 44cms (see attached imaging) I would say you are a good candidate.
