Limb Lengthening Forum

I had had  frameroval about 6months ago.
I dont have infection now.
But during I had been have extenal frame, due to barbaric PT
my pin-site is always bleeding, so they expose me to risk
of infection.

It was the worst pain I’ve ever experienced however the breakout episodes rarely exceeded 30 minutes.

People will assume you're an alien if you exceed perfect leg-to-trunk ratio. Perfect ratio is 1.5138. Leg length is from floor to scrotal line and trunk length is from scrotal line to sternal notch. In my case I have 77 cm legs from floor to scrotal line and 60 cm trunk from scrotal line to sternal notch, so the ratio is 1.2833, which is very low. In order to to get the perfect leg-to-trunk ratio, I have to lengthen according to perfect ratio value, so x / 60 = 1.5138 and x = 1.5138 x 60 = 90.828. I have to lengthen almost 14 cm in total to get the perfect leg-to-trunk ratio and only after 14 cm total LL I will start to deviate from perfect leg-to-trunk ratio and become unattractive.

There's no perfect height, there's perfect proportions only and it's 1.5138 when it comes to leg-to-trunk ratio. Any men who will go past that ratio by a lot will look bad at any post LL height and no women will find him attractive solely for his total height. That's why it's very important to learn your body proportions prior to LL to know your limits of lengthening amount.

I'm going to lengthen 13-14 cm in total, I'm finally 100% sure that I need it in my life. It's a matter of 2 years before I lengthen my tibia first for 6 cm with pure external method and after that I will lengthen my femurs for 8 cm when I get the money for proper internal femurs.

Some other good LL doctors include Dr Becker in Germany who is around 45k-50k and Dr Assayag in Baltimore who's price I dont know exactly. If your looking for the max possible length for the least amount of money I would recommend Dr Becker as his Betz bone device can lengthen a max of 12cm for only around 45k-50k. But if you are intent on staying in the US and not spending an exorbitant amount of money at the Paley institute, a more affordable option would definitely be Dr Assayag. I dont know his price exactly but I think its in the ball park of around 70k-90k.

Dr. Becker is more around 60k in € so like $65k

Are you nut or crazy?

What is your argument? Are you saying it's impossible to increase pain threshold since there are studies that show you can.

simple...go and get your bone fracture and experience it yourself

yeah that's the end goal, however ideally you'd want to prepare yourself mentally.

Okay, did you do LL on your tibias as you planned?

not yet

giotikas has an impressive ortho background. he works in greece and UK. If someone hates greece so much he can go to UK (but more costs)

dr becker is a cosmetic surgeon. He is very good at cosmetic LL and aesthetics. Most of his patients said good things about him.

   but its not fair to compare them like this. Their specialisation is different.

shortisnotfun went to giotikas after he got complications elsewhere. so its not the same as treating a simple CLL case.

I think both docs are good, but do your own research. Think of the things that could go wrong. Ask the docs if they have experience treating complications.

I can say that dr becker is very caring and has a good system in place for cosmetic LL. maybe the system in athens is not that good...

request for antibiotics if you are having any kind of infection. squeeze out the infection .

anyone with experience with home health aide? i was thinking of using one for a month. anybody have experience on anything about them? im usually thinking of using them as uber and pick up from hospital . basic stuff only.
