It aims to correct the dimple by exerting an external influence on the rib cage. Lifestyle changes and physiotherapy also support this process. It can be tried in almost every age group. In childhood, the chances of treatment with this method are higher, but there are cases of failure. It is usually applied in the morning and evening, with corrective procedures performed by the patient with the vacuumbell device. After the measurements are taken by the physician, success is achieved in a period of about one year. Side effects are negligible. The success rate depends on the patient&#8217;s patience.
