I would avoid Turkey at all costs! I worked as guest relations across a few hotels in Istanbul last summer and one of the apartment complexes was where a lot of patients from limb-lengthening were sent to. These were patients that had serious problems or were extremely unhappy, so the surgeries would move them away from the new patients so they couldn't try and discourage them or put them off from having the surgery. It was horrific seeing all these young guys and girls with big holes in their legs all experiencing severe problems and complications from the surgery. They were all deformed looking it was like they had been butchered. I imagine a lot of patients who go to cheaper countries will be ok but there were so many that were far from ok! I wouldn't risk paying these cheaper prices in unregulated countries when it comes to your legs. I also have been watching 'The Looksmaxing channel' where that guy went to one in Turkey last year and now he is permanently crippled and living in a nursing home, very sad to see. I'd say it would be worth doing your research first and maybe spending that extra money, even if it may take a few extra years to have this done. Personally, I would never just make my decision based on what I see on social media as we all know that it's easy to make something look completely different to the actual reality.
Sorry disturbing you but for this one I think your points is a bit unfair not all places in every turkey is bad same things like the ppl someone is kind, someone is bad for turkey I would suggest only two surgeon if you wanna go this producers. one is Dr yuksel yurttas and two Dr mustafa uysal they're expert and experience surgeon for over 15 yrs one of them DR yuksel over 25 yrs and they're team really care about you about any complications no matter what method precise 2 or even LON method.....
@@thebrightstar3634 Funnily enough, Dr Yuksel did the surgery on that Looksmaxxing guy I recently discovered on youtube. After watching this guys journey and what unfortunately happened to him would more than enough put me off going to him. I can only give information based on my experience of what I saw in the hotel (which I believe had patients from more than 1 clinic). It wasn't pleasant to say the least. Like I said, I'm sure many are ok after but there was too many that had serious complications from doing this. Remember that it is mainly done to help children with birth deformities, rather than for cosmetic reasons. Which is why most western countries like the UK and US are reluctant to do this for the wrong reasons due to the risk involved. I know people would feel better with reassurances that they will be fine and have no issues, but that isn't really the reality of going to cheap places. You get what you pay for.
@@TopG.41130 then if we stuck on the Turkey need to find others places that could better off to do some patient dr yuksel do is better I don't know what is the case for someone you talking about but I am sure the choice except dr yuksel is many choice out there but need to understand the cost first not all ppl could afford to do in US or UK some on this places is very expensive to do the things is that is going for really hard for ppl to do this and saving money taking too much time if it was very expensive or the same price atleast in US and UK otherswise need to wait for more a couple of yrs for the price is going down I even like you do on research watch the video on many patients many of them they say positive effect after the surgery on dr yuksel maybe dr mustafa uysal is better cheaper also comfortable places and clean too
my hope is that the precise stryde could return as soon as possible and hope LON method the first method could be down on 10K Euro or 5K Euro that could be easy for everyone to do and keep saving money without taking any longer time that's is my whole points Let's be easy here and hope we have a better choice, better price, better places for everyone to do in future that's it bro
Here the simple way to understand and take this way my advise is that if you want to focus your height yes " Height " just go ahead and don't think too much if you want to do it never say never you go through this process without any research, observation etc etc until you get confident yourself to do then just go why not right ?
This is all negative impact, complications etc etc whatever it is can be avoided if you research a good surgeon as well as the place at least from this side this can help in the future if you having of this issue talk and ask many questions as you can to your surgeon if you feel any doubts about this surgery
My surgeon said that it’s very important to listen to the body and feel your resources. If the nerve or other tissues hurt too much there should be a break taken for the tissues to heal before further distracting can resume
anyone who is doing cosmetic LLS should wait and see what happens with future research - there is evidence to suggest the presence of a stem cell niche in growth plates after they close. I have no doubt this may be an avenue for some interesting new approaches down the line.
Hey vic , gr8 video. 1)How long does it take to fully recover from the surgery? After which period of time can you tell that there won't be any more "recovery" than this? 2) about joint contracture and decreased range of motion, what is the rate of this complication?
Hey victor , make a video on the future advancement in height surgury and tell us if there will be other alternative available in this height market. Also show us statistics of this CLL like how may patients in the worlds undergoing this surgery each year because the the more the demand the more modifications and advanced the surgury will be in future Will the people who undergone this surgery able to pass the height criteria in defence services after recovery because here in India army has fucking obsolete minimum height requirements . Thankyou for your videos ❤ Edit - also want to ask if there is any relation to bone marrow with this surgery
Me at 157cm is below average in my country really sucks, bad and sad dude ofcos is bothering me a lot atleast I want to get 174cm is enough for me at that height I could not ask anymore and no matter what ppl say your still shorts nope nevermind I don't care I am happy if I can change this once for my entire life
Good ideas. That requires quite a bit more data than I have - all companies with said info won't share with me. And many patients are very anonymous. This industry is much harder to gather such info. But not impossible I suppose
Hey victor i have some questions 1.) If an "unlucky" patient had some complication like nerve damage, muscle damage, ballerina or something like that can he recover from it fully or it's over for him? 2.) If he can does he have to undergo another surgery which will cost more?
1) sometimes they can be recoverable complication but could just as easily become permanent if the right surgeon isn't looking after. 2) If he does then if PT and time doesn't resolve it, then yes surgery would be next option
@@Cyborg4Life even with the right surgeon wrong can happen so that patient can be recovered from such a horribly complication of any kind later on through PT or another surgery?
Hi Victor! Thank you for all the very helpful information. We really appreciate all the hard work you put in to help people out. You mentioned at the end of the video that patients with femur lengthening can walk normally in 7-9 months. If only 5cm of femurs are lengthened by Precise, how soon can we walk without assistance and walk normally? (considering that it will be done by one of the top surgeons you have previously mentioned). I was hoping 5months to walk normally. In addition, when can you start walking stairs normally?
Would you say Turkey has questionable surgeons? I am thinking about doing this procedure to reach a height of 182/183 however I am right now at 173, perhaps 6 cm femur and then 4 cm tibia a year after? Would this be conservative for being able to do heavy squats, clean and jerk, snatch etc? I like to think my muscles are pretty mobile. I would definitely take my rehab and stretching seriously so long as I can return to weightlifting.
Yeah I think that's very doable. I really believe if I go all in on this one day - 6cm femurs and 4cm tibias would be what I do (although my current tibia might be an issue idk) but if you get ROM back with no complications your prognosis will be very very good
Hey victor, do you think someone can mountaineer high mountains (8000m+) after limb lengthening. Saw someone on the limblengtheningforum or somewhere else doing that after LL
Yes you could hike mountains but I would say you'd have to ensure full recovery and be fit enough - strength & endurance. This all assuming no complications and full ROM - no overlengthening
but dont you think that athleticism is more important than just height? You basically trade this. I'm a skinny unfit 6.4 tall guy and still cant get laid. I'd rather be short and more muscular / athletic :D
Victor, why did you remove some interviews with surgeons? They were very helpful.
Yea… exactly I couldn’t find some interviews
Yeah we'll be back with surgeon content again soon so no worries
@@Cyborg4Life Thank you for answering Victor. But respectfully, why did you remove them?

Where did you read about this. A new such system will take decades to develop, so if you have 20 years on your hands, maybe can wait😊
You are right I have also read about this somewhere
It would be nice if you make a video about success rate and complication rate
I have to get real data which no one will provide me. All my statistics are based on rough info I gathered or my own personal contact info
Hey vic , gr8 video.
1)How long does it take to fully recover from the surgery? After which period of time can you tell that there won't be any more "recovery" than this?
2) about joint contracture and decreased range of motion, what is the rate of this complication?
1) about a year if you want to get back - 7-9 months to walk though
2) low if you have a good surgeon and do lots of stretching
Also. Has anyone reading this lengthened their femurs 8cm/9cm?? If so, are you satisfied with the preparation? Incomparscent to tibia??

174 cm here. Not sure to do 9cm on femur and see how it feels. Or just do quadiatural 8cm Femur and 5cm tibia all in one go

It can be affected temporarily

How to avoid the knee pain after the surgery??
Knee pain is normal, it often goes away. I had the same problem.
, are patients prone to knee arthritis later in life...?
Hey Victory, would you recommend Dr Assyag for 8 cm femurs? If not, who else would you recommend in Baltimore?
Is 4.5-5 cm low targer. I know i can go higher, but i want results and recovery quickly. With less complications
