Greetings to anyone who came across this page and spares some time to read US! Wannabetaller Team has recently joined this community of limb lengthening, and we would like you to welcome us with your warm energy. The aim of being here is not to slender any clinic/company or spread false accusations but rather show what kind of services we offer for those desiring to go through the limb lengthening process and help people clear their concerns out. Shall we move on to the introduction part? Yes, we shall 😊

Who is Wannabetaller Team?
WannaBeTaller is a part of the Medzonia Limited Company. We are the first Cosmetical limb-lengthening surgery company that has every formal document and license that is required by the Turkish Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Culture and Tourism for medical tourism. Being the first company that does limb-lengthening surgery, we are one of the most experienced companies in this field. Having the registered necessary documents by the relevant formal institutions makes WannaBeTaller to be more trustworthy than the rival companies. With the self-confidence and the experience that comes with being the first in its field, our company aims to provide a quality service with high standards, which every stage of it is meticulously planned, to its patients who want to achieve their dreams.


Limb lengthening is a process that several services; such as the surgery, rehabilitation process after the surgery, transfer, and accommodation, have to be carried out at the same time and that’s why every service unit is being determined by our distinguished and experienced team with taking into consideration of high-quality standards. To make sure that high-quality standards are being provided flawlessly, the company has a quality control center that actively controls the whole process and improves itself every day with the feedback of the patients to take the quality standards even further.

We work heartily to serve the best for our patients, notably from Turkey and the USA, Germany, China, Japan, England, Canada, Australia, the United Arab Emirates, and many other countries, aiming for them to achieve their desired height with the confidence of being the most experienced team with 22 people in total.

What surgical procedures do we offer?
*Limb-lengthening
*Limb-reduction
*Limb deformity correction
*Limb length discrepancy
*Limb-lengthening revision
*Other orthopedic procedures (e.g. hip replacement, arthroscopy, and so forth)


Who does perform Limb-lengthening operations and other orthopedic procedures?

Dr. Yunus Öç is an Orthopedic Trauma Surgeon who has proven himself to take care of their patients well and has been devoted to his job. Dr. Öç has extensive knowledge of both the upper and the lower extremities in infants and adults. For the first 10 years of his medical past, he had been mostly performing limb lengthening surgeries to treat health problems that are congenital or occurred due to trauma. In recent years, he has been mainly doing limb lengthening surgeries for cosmetic purposes. During the limb lengthening surgery, other orthopedic procedures such as deformity correction can be performed if Dr. Öç deems it appropriate.

Message from Dr. Öç:
“People should have the right to pursue just what they know they deserve, according to my perspective. I am extremely grateful to have the skills and expertise to support them in achieving the desired goals and meeting the needs of my patients.”

Where do the orthopedic procedures are performed?


They are performed at Beykent University Hospital where all examinations and the necessary pre-operative tests are conducted. This is the place where the journey of becoming taller begins! Besides, our doctor has been teaching undergraduate and postgraduate med students who are expected to be future doctors.


What services do we provide for a better and smooth post-operative process?   
*Accommodation: Our patients are offered accommodation service in a 5-star hotel upon their request. In this place, 3-meals per day, physiotherapy, medical health care, X-rays, medications, and such like services are provided to make the patients have a healthy lengthening process.


*Transportation: VIP shuttles are provided to pick you up from the airport and the round-trips for the hospital/hotel.


*Physical Therapy: The most significant fact during the distraction phase. You will be receiving exercises and consultancy support from physiotherapists that have worked with hundreds of patients.


*Medical Care: Our health care representative will ensure that your process is on track and provide the required health care you need such as medical dressing changes, regular checkups, and so on.
*Dietitian Service: Well… Hippocrates once said: “Our food should be our medicine & Our medicine should be our food” We make sure you are guided to receive healthy nutrients and snacks in order for having healthy bone healing. Our contracted dietitian visits the patients every two weeks and provides consultancy and monitors what they eat.
*Psychotherapy Service: Who can say that somebody can go through the limb lengthening process with flying colors? We believe no one. It is an intense process and requires well post-operative care. So, having some ups and downs or feeling moody because of some pain is totally expectable. In this case, we arrange psychotherapy sessions for our patients 2 times a month upon their request. Thus, some issues can be addressed and patients can find their ways to manage the whole process with the advice of our psychotherapist.

Since we have covered the introduction part, let’s carry on with the details about limb lengthening 😊 First thing first, we need to be familiar with the term limb lengthening.

What is Limb-Lengthening surgery?
Cosmetic limb lengthening is a technique in which the major bones of the legs (either the femur or the tibia) or arms (humerus) are surgically cut, then metal fixators are attached to the legs, and the bones grow on a daily basis with the help of these devices.
Since many people are not satisfied with their height and consider it as an obstacle, short stature is mainly a result of genetic factors. Other factors also play a role in this matter. Some may prefer to use non-surgical treatments like hormonal treatments, yet the scientifically proven, most effective, and permanent treatment is limb lengthening surgery, in which the patient’s long bones in their lower extremities (sometimes upper arms) are elongated and distracted by a lengthening device, offering a permanent solution and helping the patient to overcome all personal, social, or professional obstacles.

What surgery methods are offered for limb lengthening?
Currently, there are two surgery methods are offered: LON (Lengthening Over Nail) and Precice 2

Not familiar what are those methods? Keep scrolling down the page and find out the information for those two methods.


LON METHOD


This method is both external and internal. An intramedullary nail is embedded inside the medullary cavity and an external fixator is attached outside the leg. The distraction is performed with a metal alloy key over the fixator, which allows individuals to gain 1 mm per day. Every 6 hours (4 times a day), the lengthening is carried out. The duration to keep the fixator is between 2-3 months depending on the planned height achievement. Returning to daily activities and walking unaided are expected to be 2 months after the lengthening is over.
More information for LON:

PRECICE 2 METHOD


This method is completely internal. Nothing is attached outside the leg 😊 A magnetic intramedullary nail is embedded inside the medullary cavity. The distraction is performed with a magnetic remote controller, which allows individuals to gain 1 mm per day. The lengthening phase takes between 2-3 months depending on the planned height achievement. Returning to daily activities and walking unaided are expected to be 2 months after the lengthening is over.
More information for Precice 2:
https://wannabetaller.com/limb-lengthening-surgery-methods/limb-lengthening-by-precice-2/


If you think “Ohh! Please spare me from this information, and tell me how many inches I can gain?”, I am about to tell you that 😀

How many inches can I gain with a single limb lengthening surgery?
Femur (The upper legs): 6-8 cm


Tibia (The lower legs): 5-7 cm


Both femur and tibia;

Humerus (The upper arm): 4-6 cm
The above numbers are the accepted safe limits by almost every orthopedic doctor who does limb-lengthening surgery. It is not advised to exceed them in terms of health and proportionality.

Come on! Why not gain 12 cm with a single surgery?!
The height achievement mainly depends on the flexibility of the muscles, ligaments, tendons, and soft tissues. Pain threshold is another factor playing an important role during the lengthening phase. If you force them excessively, you might have long-lasting health issues by exceeding the safe limits such as chronic knee pain, arthritis, and so forth. Who does want that? No one we suppose.

If not achieving 12 cm with a single surgery, can I have quadrilateral surgery at the same time?
Alright, as we concluded that gaining 10 or 12 cm is not good with a single operation, we can proceed with the follow-up information. Quadrilateral surgery is not preferred to be done by most surgeons, including Dr. Yunus Öç. It carries a huge risk of embolism, leads to multi-trauma in the legs, and requires a long duration under general anesthesia. It had better do two separate surgeries with a gap of 6/12 months. Let’s say you would like to have them done both in a short period of time, well…in this case, the second lengthening surgery can be performed a month after the first one based on your current health status.

We have obtained pretty useful info regarding the methods and process, and it is time to learn the potential complications and some unpredictable risks of limb lengthenşng surgery.

COMPLICATIONS and RISKS OF LIMB LENGTHENING
It is critical to ensure that the surgeon you choose for limb-lengthening surgery has sufficient knowledge in the field of height increase. Face-to-face or online consultation is necessary prior to surgery in order for the doctor to provide proper guidance, instill confidence in the patient, and achieve success as a team on this journey.
Professional health care supplied after the procedure is at a minimum as important as the lengthening surgery procedure. Poor postoperative health care, physical therapy from non-lengthening specialists, and dressing care in unsanitary conditions can all lead to serious health problems.
Some of them are listed below;
*Non-bone union
*Slow bone union
*Fast bone union
*Infection
*Osteomyelitis
*Deformity
*Nerve Damage
*Compartment Syndrome
Complications will occur in everyone who has limb lengthening surgery more or less. It's just a question of what those issues will be and how quickly we'll be able to discover and correct them. We can reduce limb lengthening surgery risk and consequences by planning ahead of time and taking a very cautious approach during operation.
With our physical therapy and post-operative care services, our team of experts, who prioritize your health, minimizes the complications and unpredictable risks. In a case where you may face one of them, the necessary examination and tests are done and then, proper treatment is administered accordingly.

PRICES FOR LIMB LENGTHENING and OTHER ORTHOPEDIC PROCES SURGERY

You should be ashamed of yourself and your whole team.

Hello,
First of all, as the WannaBeTaller team, we are proud to be working with an expert doctor that almost has no complications after the surgery and we provide equal medical care and follow-up service for every one of our patients. Unfortunately, there are invidious statements for almost every clinic and team on platforms like this and over social media. We condemn this kind of statement and suggest that it shouldn’t be evaluated from one side’s view and should take into consideration the opposite side’s view as well. As per our company policy, we give transparent explanations to the rumors that our patients hear throughout the process. We thank you for your sensitivity and understanding and wish you a good day.

Hello,
The patient that is mentioned is the patient of the doctor that we used to work with but not anymore (Doc. Yüksel Yurttaş). The patient in the video neither used the services and the accommodation that our company offered nor had the surgery with our current doctor. We think that there has been a mistake on your behalf. Lastly, we wish that the patient in the video gets back to their health in a short time. WannaBeTaller Team

Definitely stay away from this company. Many were crippled and suffered excruciating pain. This company has a lot of fake diaries on this forum. Also they advertise like a food order catalogue.
