I stumbled upon something while I was digging around for solutions http://www.orthopectus.com.br/fmethod.htm and it occurred to me that this might actually be useful for my situation...

I'm 15 years old and standing at about 5'7". I've got this indentation right in the center of my chest that’s becoming a massive headache for me. Honestly, the actual dip isn't even the main issue; the real problem is how much my ribcage protrudes around the edges—you can see exactly what I mean in the photo. It sticks out so much that it’s obvious even under a T-shirt, and if the sides weren't bulging like that, the central indentation wouldn't even look that dramatic. My question is: are there any orthopedic braces or devices out there that could actually help flatten this out, and is this something that can truly be corrected? Thanks in advance!
