I would like to start a thread where users can introduce themselves. I'm from the United States and am planning on having LL in 2015. I have the money for it now but I have some scheduling issues in 2014. I have researched LL thoroughly starting back in 2002 and have read countless journals on other LL forums. My username is something a woman said to me once.
I think I should have posted this in Suggestions & Feedback

Welcome dude.
On the other site, a guy was willing to go to Syria to have his operation during the whole chemical weapons crisis.
We all joked that he was going to 'get tall or die trying' ;D
-
Hey there, welcome! I have two questions for you..
- How tall are you now?
- What kind of a cunt would say that? :D

Man, the situation there is getting worse and worse..
No wonder people are going to an unproven doctor for LL as guinea pigs when some are desperate enough to go to a warzone.. It's sad.

Cool, most forums should have an introduction thread. Good to see a new face.
I'm Kilokahn. Been a member of old forum under a few different usernames from 2007 up until last month of this year when I was secretly banned by Sysop for voicing my critique about "promoting LLing" and saying in a pm that this forum wasn't a bad idea (I say secretly banned because my username says certified member and my karma is there but my user password and recovery e-mail were changed by sysop so I can no longer go on old forum ).
I've arranged to meet with some leg lengthening surgeons this December. As of now the logistics are in favor of me doing surgery in Delhi (not through Sringari or Sarin) but it's too early to say. Hope this forum continues to expand and thrive.

Hey , this is no joke. Your damn right.
I used to be straight. Loved women.
But then I only grew to 5ft 7 and so then I was forced to turn gay. :-\
So now I am saving up to get my Femurs done so I can become 5ft 10. Hopefully I will be tall enough and they can let me become heterosexual again. :D
-

I'm 5'5" (165cm). I'll never be tall even after LL, but at least I'll be normal

Oh I'm going to save that story for the opening of my journal when the time comes

You're kidding, right?
How can a height of 5'7" be THAT bad? And how do you even "turn gay", unless you're already naturally bisexual?

@old forum PartyLeaks
Happens in prison all the time, and what about teenage boys experimenting, and what about gay-for-pay porn actors?
-
LOL this is a joke.
whats even more funny is that some ppl wonder if it is true or not.... ha ah a ha
u r right though. 5'7 is not that bad. with small size lifts you can stand at 5''9. That's is a average woman's height with very high heels on.
so at any given time at 5'9 you will taller than more than 50% of women regardless of what shoes they r wearing.
5'7 is short but its not that bad. If u r alright looking and have other things in ur life working then ur height is not really a big deal.
height is a deal breaker at the lower end, around 5'6 and below. at this these short height, u will have to be very very rich for women to over look ur short stature.
-
LOL this is a joke.

Haha, well, I just had to ask. Gotten used to people saying the weirdest things on old forum over the last year, so almost nothing surprises me anymore.

if you turned gay because of height (seriously) then I feel bad for you son
-
I introduce myself as Eye Level. I am 169.5-170 cm tall
Being short is extremely difficult, so I hope this forum can maintain its transparency.
I have come from old forum in hopes to find honesty, so that one day I can stand at eye level with my peers.

Hi everyone. I joined old forum about two years ago, but I haven't posted there in ages. I'm currently saving up money to undergo a bowl-leg correction first. I am considering Dr. Mahboubian but I will research on the negative stories that people claim.
I'd go straight into LL but I do a lot of hard physically demanding sports and full contact martial arts. Actually, the bowl-leg correction is more for health reasons than height gain (although that is a nice secondary factor). I actually suffer from chronic knee pain, on the inside of my knee joints, particularly my right one after a lot of physical activity that stresses that area.
My height is around 163cm, 167.5-168cm wingspan, of East Asian descent. After getting my surgery, I will then consider whether I will do LL in the future or not. If I proceed, my goal would be a mere 4-5cm, as I really don't want to negatively impact my physical activities in the future.
Ultimately, my health and peace of mind is more important. Still, it is looking like a definite possibility (unless something makes me completely change my mind) in the future. I think LL is a wonderful tool for people with the "short end" of the genetic stick. I'm very happy to have discovered this forum, old forum seems to have way too much drama for my liking. :/
-
Welcome
Yeah this forum is a lot better than old forum . I don't trust much of the information on there and person running that site is a piece of sh!t.
-
Actually, I forgot to post some other information. I had been consider Dr. Mahboubian and still am as he is within close proximity geologically. The traveling aspect would be minimal. However, since I am not actually looking for a LL surgery at the moment I will most likely have the correction done in China or South Korea, as I am familiar with the languages and have family in that region to stay with if necessary. Furthermore it appears that the cost will be dramatically lower for what is really a minimally invasive surgery.
-
Hi guys.
Im french, around 165 and will do LL when i have money, probably with Salameh and probably do 7 cm.
In my city most guys are between 176-180.
But i dont feel that bad about my height, i just want to improve myself in everything i can.
I like having fun 8), drinking and girls.

lol, Claude's way of typing his laughs bothered you that much Sweden?
You dont understand man, you just dont get IT !
You have to think like Sweden, eat like Sweden, exercise like Sweden, do a 360 degrees kick like Sweden, wear some weird black and yellow sneakers like Sweden, and of course laught on the internet like Sweden AND THEN you will have a successful life.
I have a poster of him in my room now but i need to upgrade to a statue of Sweden.
-
lol
this is really hilarious, I don't find his sneakers weird though
-
Claude seems to get it! 8)
I'm thinking of asking you to change your name since it's very gayish, "Claude"....
But I guess it's alright for now.
If your real name is Jean-Claude, then yeah - you're gay.
Goodnight guys and girl.
PS. My shoes are awsome, that's why everyone wants them(and the guy wearing them) ;D
-
Tell that to Van Damme 8)
-
I don't find his sneakers weird though
When i asked him about his shoes he just said something like "Those shoes have an history, look at my videos"
HA HA !... HA ! I think those shoes are like a mystery a little like the Holy Graal of LL.
Can't answer to my name being gay now im too busy i have to do a 360 kick before going to bed and feed my Sweden statue.

Hey people,
I'm French too ;), 164,5cm (165 on a good morning) and planning to get at least up to 168 / 169 before I stop. I do care about proportions a bit and worry about my physical abilities afterwards (I love martial arts and training in general). Being 168ish would put me at Jet Li's height which is pretty cool already. ;D If I ever go further (some days all you want to do is be taller) I'll stop at 171cm which is my max according to all calculations and mockups I've done so far (you can't imagine the time I've spent doing that).
Everyone is super tall where I'm at and times when I come across a man my height who's both Caucasian (most shorties here are foreigners) and not 70 yo or so are pretty rare (even though they make me feel so relieved for a few seconds^^). I'll have to wait at least two years for my LL because I don't have the money yet, knowing I probably want to go with Guichet or at least with one of the very best surgeons which makes it quite expensive...
Kudos to the creators of this new forum !

Why I found this Forum
I was following Leechlet when he posted a video about Apo and I didn't know of any controversy until I viewed the video. Then I googled Apotheosis and it got me here.
Wow! Thanks guys. I didn't know old forum was heavily censored and now, also found out that there are fake diaries. I hope this forum does not follow old forum 's route as I believed old forum for a time, practiced democracy too. I also hope the mods won't consider financial dealings/ads from doctors as the objectivity of the forum would be compromised.
Now I also know why I'm getting banned intermittently from old forum (using my username and even as a guest) although I don't post much. It's the way they censor posts there.
I've been thinking of LL for about 5 years now and doing my research. Probably Guichet but not confirmed yet. And also, thinking of Precise (I hope Dr Guichet would have that version soon).
Thanks for the veterans for sharing the experience and warning of fraud.

You can be sure that this forum operates differently from old forum and will continue to do so. The difference in the way this forum does things is noticeable as soon as you come to the website. As you can see, PMs are accessible by all members, there are no hidden diaries, posts aren't censored, no karma system that ranks members, and a doctors directory that doesn't recommend any particular doctor over another. We prefer to focus on the medical aspect of limb lengthening and like the forum to be open to advice, debate, and what have you.

old forum was never a democracy, back to the original tyrant old forum Admin. This forum is something the LL community really needed and I'm glad Dameon started it.

Migrating from old forum to LL Forum
I've been following a hair transplant forum years ago when the admin censored/banned negative posts to a transplant doctor that the forum advertises.
That forum was: http://www.hairlosshelp.com/forums/index.cfm?nocookies=yes
Anold forum was created, designed to be more free and objective and I think it's more popular now.

Hi!
I'm a future limblengthener.
167 cm, Southern european.
I have been following this forum and the other one for a long time but i don't usualy post.
I decided now to post because I began contacting some doctors, so it is becoming real..
I'm interested in femur lengthening in Europe for a gain of 7,5 cm. And, if possible, still make the operation this year.
This gain height will bring me to the average height on my country. At least according to wikipedia: (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_height), and considering a bit of exaggeration on the self reported height (i always say i'm 170! ;D)
I will probably make a small diary of my journey. It will certainly be helpful for future patients, at least as a way of reassurance, and - as I'm not sharing the intention of making this operation with may people - I guess that it will also be helpful for me on the psychological part of limblengthening.
Latter I will post some mokups pictures of the height gain that i want.

hi guys! :)
I'm from Mexico, you know the country below USA.
I'm 23 years old and I've been one of the shortest guys my entire life in my classroom and among my friends (1.64 m.)
Planing to become a limblengthener at the end of this year. I know I won't be tall but at least normal.
I think that many of us have used many things to seem a lil' bit taller and I'm tired of that, I want to be able to go to some place and feel the confidence to take off my shoes knowing that I'm gonna remain the some height ( i think that some of you guys know that feeling :-\) wishing to read from you and share my future experiences.

Have you decided already which doctor?

Actually for sometime. These two forums have gone way beyond it. My research says that Dr. Sarin is not that bad as it is painted in both the forum. I find it strange that old forum & LL Forum both are against Dr. Sarin.

What's your basis in saying this?

Hi Gettingtaller, welcome to LL Forum! How has your lengthening with Dr Betz been going so far? At 7.6 cm do you have knee stiffness or anything? Do you use an exercise bike?
Feel free to create a thread about your lengthening journey in the 'Limb Lengthening Patients Experiences' section of the forum if you wish.
Hope the rest of your lengthening goes smoothly.
-
Thanks for the welcome Kilo. Funny you should mention knee stiffness as I was only just stretching my legs trying to soothe it! In brief, my LL journey so far has been far less bothersome than I had accounted for. I haven't experienced any real pain (just the usual stretching sensations that are part and parcel of lengthening) and my physiology remains reasonably intact - no major wide legs, just a little duck ass. I guess I attribute that to a very good physiotherapist that I see 3 to 4 times a week. I bought an exercise bike but I've only used it twice! I've lost a lot of muscles on my ass, so whenever I sit on it my ass hurts lol. I had a minor complication just over a week ago - this has been the only glitch. Due to strong callus formation on my left leg, I was left unable to click (I twist my leg but nothing happens). I spoke to Dr Betz while he was on vacation and he very kindly agreed to see me on the Saturday (2 days later) because he knew week-days would be tough for me (I am working during lengthening) . So anyway, I flew to Germany, destroyed the good doctor's vacation and he performed anesthetic clicking to release the mechanism. Betz is a great doctor and an amazing human being. He and I have texted each other at 3am when I've been worried about things!
-
Did you get knee stiffness rather quickly or did you start experiencing it after lengthening over a specific amount? Interesting that you're lengthening while you work. Do you work near employees or do you work from home? If it's the former, do they know about your lengthening or did you tell them that you had an injury? I know there have been cases where Dr Betz patients have had to pay to get bent/broken rods replaced from doing too much weight bearing. How are your internal nails holding up?
Good to know he takes the time to talk with you when you're worried and tries to make the process easier.
-
The stiff knees started to hit me after 6.5cm. I'm coming to the end of lengthening so hopefully I'll be ok for the next centimetre or so. I work mostly from home but I do travel to the office about once a month. I don't think anybody has noticed, I used to wear lifts and I've stopped wearing those so probably don't look too different. I've lost a lot of weight and this is obvious so any apparent height gain can be blamed on that. My nails are holding up just fine according to X-rays i took just last week. I'm aware that there have been cases of bent nails but I've met lots of betz patients that have had no problems. I made a friend who had his op a day after mine. He and I spent weeks together in Germany. His starting height was 178 and he's very heavy, however he had small marrow holes so could only get the 11mm nails. We were quite worried for him but he's come to the end of lengthening, has good bone growth and no bent nails. Betz advices you to not walk without crutches unless you have 13s, some ignore this, or become irresponsible and end up damaging their nails. I met many people that were without issues and just 1 guy who bad issues (one non union in tibs, but I could see he was lazy and this might have been a factor).

Hi everybody
This is my first post on this forum. I've been thinking of doing this surgery for a long time but I'm still a university student so I don't have enough money for all the expenses. Here's some info about myself: 168cm (or 5'6"), 22 years old, Arabian.
My goal is to get closer to average height (here, it's 5'9), however, I am worried about loss of athletic ability and strength, since I'm also a powerlifter. So I joined this forum to maybe learn more about the different types of surgeries and all the doctors doing it and that kind of stuff.
ciao

Hello my name is Peter Woll,
I am Physical Therapist and work with CLL for about 8 years.
The patients I work are mainly Betz patients, but I have worked with Guichet patients,
LON and External LL too.
I am member on old forum as Physio as well and just started to read on this new Forum.
Best
Peter ;-)

Hi everyone. My name is Steve. I'm 30 years old, from Brooklyn, NY and I'm 5-2.25", roughly 158 cm. My short stature has bothered me pretty much my entire life. I discovered LL about 10 years ago, but didn't consider it at all due to the surgery being much less common at the time, as well as the high cost. So I forgot about it. 10 years later, I decided to look this up again just on a whim to see if there had been any changes/advancements in the science.
I'm glad to see that there's a forum for this now, as well as more doctors that perform the surgery. Financially nothing is different for me as it was 10 years ago, but I'm so glad that I can both research and discuss the overall experience of the procedure now. I'm still not happy with my height, but one thing that I have came to terms with, I'm happy to say, is that unlike 10 years ago, I no longer wish to be like 6-0 or taller. Obviously, even surgery like this isn't some sort of miracle (though maybe 50 years from now we'll be saying different, lol). So if I ever had the extra cash, I'd be more than happy to be 4 or 5 inches taller. Sure, going from 5-2 to 5-7 doesn't make a difference (at least here in NYC where competition between jobs and dating is pretty severe), but for me it's just the overall experience of simply being taller in general that would make me happy. Being higher up when I stand/walk, reaching for things, etc... I wouldn't want to be disproportionate either. So 5-8 is outta the question anyway lol.
Thank you to everyone here for creating and contributing to this site. After the closing of "shortsupport.org", I thought I'd never have somewhere to go to discuss this to ever again. Hope to get to know you all in the future.
Anyway, off to the bodega to buy some scratch offs and hope I win that 100K, lol j/k

Hello
I'm 26 years old male and my height is 5 feet 5. Both my parents are short, but my father is slightly taller than me. Aiming to do LL in about 5 years. My goal is to do 6-8 cm in my tibia and femur. Reaching a height of 173-175 cm. Anyways, I know it's a bit into the future but I'm here to learn and get experience from most of you guys.
If someone is in my position to do LL in about 5-6 years, contact me so we can hook up and do it together.
Love and Peace,
Frihet.

Hi, I, as many of you, also come from old forum .
I'm 23 yo and I never thought of my as short at 5'11. I'm from south América so height was never a problem for me. I just feel like doing LL to achieve my dreamed height: 6'2

"GrowTallerOrGoGay"
Wow you got me there man. I am not gay but I have crossdressed before and it fking went well. Like 95% of the people thought I was actually a little girl (being 5'1" has its pros when crossdressing, you are not just dragging you are actually being a woman). + since I can barely grow facial hair, there are almost no masculine noticeable traits when I do it.
P.S.: I'm not gay lmfao, I have just taken advantage of my height and skinny complex to prank people. Being 5'1" is actually harder than being just 5'4" or 5'6". You are literally mistaken for a pre-teen on the streets, while when I crossdress they actually think that I am older just shorter.

Hello. Mi name is SpaniardHobbit. I'm 23 years old student living in Spain. Due to the bad salaries offered in my country i'm not very sure when will i be able to afford LL. Maybe never (if i cannot get it by 30, i won't do it). Anyway, my plans are:
- Doctor Monegal, Spain.
- Fitbone method.
- Both segments. 5+4 probably. Still have to talk with Monegal to decide a number.
- Starting height 167, goal height 175. 5.6 -> 5.9. Going from "you are quite short, yeah" to "normal, clearly not short but just normal guy".
I'm a very active person. Traveling and doing new things are the passion of my life, i live just for it. So losing any athletical function will be a disaster for me. My goal is to be able to run, fight and climb after LL, because those activities are necessary for me to be happy. I plan to post videos, photos and a really detailed diary of my recovery. My intention is to create the most complete LL-full recovery existing diary.
Sure, going from 5-2 to 5-7 doesn't make a difference
Yes. It does. Definitely. Going from 5.2 to 5.7 makes a difference regardless of where you live.

Hi my name is Alex and I am 179/178, I have always been the smallest member of my family and alomst all of my friends are taller than me. My dream height would be 186-188, I will probably do my tibibas this summer with Dr. Solomin, I aim for 4-5cms. If everything works out well I will do femurs with internals some years later.

My goal height is 187 cm too
I was also the shortest among my friend, and i always feel average or below average, which led me to consider leg lenghtening.
I'm also interested in doing ll with dr solomin, but i would like to read diaries from patient who did ll with him

I guess this is after the fact (just a little bit... ;) )..but since I'm bored...
I'm in my very early 30s, and hail from the greatest city in the world! My starting height was 166cm (evening), I am now around 173cm (evening), but still have duckass. But I've been measured a few times (always in the evening), and the lowest was still just over 5'8". So I'm pretty certain I hit my goal, and I definitely feel a lot taller.
Now just starting the recovery phase, which I know is gonna be somewhat frustrating. Still glad I did LL though. I had to. My height has bothered me since I was 15, and got really bad the last 2 years. I had no choice. I was just so tired of feeling like every good looking woman I dated had power over me (if that makes sense) and inferior to all other guys who were at least average height.

But I've been measured a few times (always in the evening), and the lowest was still just over 5'8". So I'm pretty certain I hit my goal, and I definitely feel a lot taller.
Now just starting the recovery phase, which I know is gonna be somewhat frustrating. Still glad I did LL though. I had to. My height has bothered me since I was 15, and got really bad the last 2 years. I had no choice. I was just so tired of feeling like every good looking woman I dated had power over me (if that makes sense) and inferior to all other guys who were at least a
verage height.
so you have height neurosis since you're 15 :o
How did you hold out?Have you ketp money aside since you have competed your studies, how long have you had the idea of doing ll?

Well, back when I was 15, LL seemed like this out-of-this-world-bizarro-Frankenstein-like procedure (which it kind of still is). It was simply out of the question.
I sort of "got over" (or, rather, suppressed) my height neurosis, as I still managed to do really well with women (I'm very good looking facially), and my career success was pretty good as well. What made my height neurosis come back big time was a very back breakup several years ago. I then stumbled upon these forums, and once that happened, it was very hard to get the idea out of my head. And I also became more and more aware of how my height was impacting my opportunities with women, and I was just more keen on peoples' comments about other short men (some who were taller than me and not even that short). For the first time in my life, I became acutely aware of how I could manipulate my body however else I wanted (hours in the gym, which I never minded doing), but no matter what...I was still very short.
I've been able to comfortably afford LL with a top doctor since I was around 25. But I was in a steady relationship back then, so I didn't care as much. And that's a mistake I vowed never to make again, even subconsciously (rely on a relationship for confidence or whatever).

My goal height is 187 cm too
I was also the shortest among my friend, and i always feel average or below average, which led me to consider leg lenghtening.
I'm also interested in doing ll with dr solomin, but i would like to read diaries from patient who did ll with him
Exclide had a pretty good experience so far with Dr. Kulesh who works closelsy togehther with Dr. Solomin.
I might write a diary about him this summer.

Hi all,
I am thinking about LL surgery from a long time now. My current height is 5’6” and I have slight bow legs. I am doing well in my life, and though I always felt I was short, I didn’t really face many problems except for a few occasional “You are short” comments. I am very practical, and didn’t really give a damn to those comments. But, I always wanted to do bow leg correction due to the lingering leg pain, and the possibility of future knee pain, so lengthening a inch or two in the same surgery made sense to me.
It was a difficult decision, and I got the courage to do it only after going through many personal experiences and innumerable posts on this forum. Now, finally I have decided to take the plunge, if everything goes right, I might do it next month itself in India. Planning to go to Mumbai and Delhi for consultation in a few days.
Bye!

Hi everyone, I am new to this forum, I look forward to being part of this community. My height is 5'7 3/4 but I just tell people I am 5'8. I am in general good health, eat right, avoid drugs and alcohol. My future plans are to have surgery with Dr.Paley with precise(anything internal). Height is something that I feel will enhance my overall life, I am currently in the process of saving money for this type of procedure. As I do this, I will also continue to invest in my personal and professional life.
All things that have a beginning must meet an end. If I decide to change my mind on this procedure I will leave this forum. If I complete the procedure then I will leave the forum. But as for now I am looking forward to this part of this journey that will make an impact on my overall life.
I look forward to speaking to every single person in this forum.

Hello LL enthusiasts! I'm femoral indecency, the "femoral" part I included because when I do have LL done it will most definitely be the femurs (hopefully 8-8.5 cm) and the "moral indecency" part is well, because society still accepts and even propagates height discrimination (the last accepted forms of oppression) and I believe it behooves our societies as a collective whole to cleanse ourselves of this disgusting and antiquated form of discrimination and uphold what shred of humanity and decency we have left. Phheww :-[
LOl sorry about the mini novel but literary rhetoric was a favourite of mine in college :)
