Title: heel implant to gain 2.5-3cm
Post by: 6'2_dream on August 23, 2018, 04:02:10 PM

once I saw on TV a model that did an implant
in the heel to gain 1 inch (2.5cm - 3cm), anyone already seen it?

Does anyone do this procedure? Seems unrealistic, since you would have all that pressure on the implant at all times.

as I understood it, was an implant that increased the heel bone, the weight is distributed in the same way in the heel bone with or without implant,
but I did not find more details about it, I saw it once on TV and then never saw anything about it again. :(

There is probably a reason why you saw it only once.
