I know is a little big late for this comment but I’m glad to find this channel since I’ve been into this subject so I want to add a valuable info ‘cause some people are disappointed and confused about the results and with the tabu about developing arthritis this is absolutely not truth since arthritis is commonly start for malformation, trauma that are not corrected on time’ when you planning to get this kind of surgery just make sure IF you need some limb or bone correction do that first why because if you do the height lengthening fist not correcting other deformities you going to develop any arthritis pain and it’s not because of procedure but for the correction issue. The farma just make us believe this by not treating the rute cause that is mostly on the develop through the skeleton growing stage. Having said that during the lengthening process you’ll see more impact in gain more cm of height. I hope this comment help a lot!!
I am not going to lie your Chanel give hope. Yes I have made comments on this Chanel before.I am 5ft 6in and it sucks if was just 4in taller that would make all the difference maybe even 6in thanks
Pain wise I would say it's most to least is: external fixator like ring fixator then monolateral external fixator then internal lengthening nails Precice and Stryde
I’ll share with you why I chose the betzbone over the precise: If everything runs well with precise, all the info showed in the video is accurate. BUT, the internal electronic mechanism inside the nail comes with a risk: the motor needs to have metals prone to rust. It has happened that (because of for example, pressure change in a plane) blood and other fluids get inside the nail despite the seal and that derives in an infection inside the bone. So, you can imagine, that could turn very nasty. That risk is not present in the betzbone given that the whole nail is made from only one stainless metal and the distraction is purely mechanical. It is true that clicks can be activated by accident, but as long as you keep record of it and balance it on the other leg, it is as much as precise than the precise (no pun intended xD). And it is less expensive. Cheers! :)
@@Cyborg4Life could you please make a video about betzbone since stryde nail has been recalled, the betzbone nail is the only full weight bearing nail at the moment. However, I heard a lot of different opinions about this type of nail, so if you could make a video out of it, I would be very grateful so that I can make a wise decision about choosing the appropriate method.
Any clinic that has those nails is up to date just be sure the doctor you pick has good experience. Of course I'd like to recommend my doctor but I'm just being biased lol
When I was 5 years old I had Blounts disease which is a disorder of the growth plates in the bones around the knee. I had the 2nd pins shown in the video and the scars are deep. I have two deep scars. I'm 30 years old and have never worn a skirt,shorts or anything short enough to notice the scar near my knee. I remember the pain I went through til this day especially when it was time to clean the area. Bad memories 😔
I feel so empathetic for you as I know what external fixator is like too. It leaves lifetime scarring but I'm glad you're out of the pain now. I did have some of my scars lined up years later during my second procedure. I wonder if it would be possible for you
@@Cyborg4Life I was thinking on seeing a scar revision cosmetic surgeon but I'm waiting on that. I have faith that someday I can at least close the deep crater scar. Realistically I do know that I will have some type of scar forever but I don't want it to be as deep. I want it closed so like that maybe I can cover it up with makeup or with a symbolic tattoo. As of right now make up doesn't even cover because it's a deep crater scar that's 3 inches in length and 2inches in width. Only in one knee because I had Blounts in one leg only. If I go to a pool I use a knee sleeve to cover it up. If I want to look nice for an occasion I usually would wear over the knee boots or a long dress with the right side slit. I mean I do it all just to cover that scar😔 ..... Thanks for reaching out to let me know about your scars and how you lined them up. I'm going to look into that more and check out what are my options. Thankyou
@@kiarar.5168 I know exactly what you mean. I had literal hernias in the leg and if it wasn't for my surgeon to offer to fix them at surgery time, I might've not gotten it done. Please keep me updated as I really hope you are able to get it fixed at some point
Hi guy! How many cm can you get with the new methods? What's the most amount achieving? What are the risks? Some people died after the operaion and other got a big handicap with their legs, although got operation with a famous doctor in Europe. What about the post operation? It will possible doing a strong workout routine in the gym, such as bodybuilng or soccer training? Thanks in advance
Hi there, so you can get 8cm on the femur or 5-6cm on the tibia. The risks are muscle contractures mainly but the others are negligible with a good doctor. Yes you can get back to training after you rehab well and regain your full ROM in the joints and practice your new lengthened limbs
Ahhh to be 12 again those were the days lol. So you're still very young and have years to still grow. I would wait at least 10 years to see if leg lengthening is still something you want/need to get done. It's a very serious and involved procedure
They all can give you a similar result in terms of height. The only difference is the mechanism of doing so and what kind of experience you'll have along the way
Hey bro, have been watching your videos. Do you think you can do a video on old PRECISE vs STRYDE? That would be great. This video merged the two. So you're left wondering if precise is the same thing as Stdyde. Thank You

Please make a video on body proportions in relation to limb lengthening, is it OK to have tibia length equal to femurs, planning 5 cm on tibia, concerned about body proportions, also is it safe to have this surgery in your early 30s
That's a good topic. I know I've touched on it previously that yes proportions will change after LL but from a lot of people I've talked to including doctors, they don't seem concerned that it causes any unwanted problems if that helps. Yeah, assuming you have no problematic health issues you will be fine doing so in early 30's as I know many doctors who have done patients mid 40's and up. There may be a drop off after that which is understandable
Is it recommended to use the LON method in just the femur? What if I just length the femur by 8cm and not the tibias? Would it look good or bad? I'm 5'6 and I'm planning to just achieve 5'9 after the surgery.
@@Cyborg4Life would you be able to make a video on these two especially? There’s so many different types out there like fitbone and betzbone and all of these. I just don’t know which is the best
One final question... once you reach the desired length... do they take the medal rods out or do they live em inside your bones??? How long before you can start seeing progress?
I'd say the monolateral or LON external fixators would probably be most cost effective yet get the job done. Patient would just have to be extra diligent with distraction & keeping pin sites clean and it would work fine

Hi Rich: Thanks a lot this is really informative. It is possible to complete both Femur and tibia lengthening at the same time?
Not recommended no
Hey Victor, why does the Fitbone have a chance to cause heightloss and the Precice stryde not?
I don't think it does
Is it recommended to use the LON method in just the femur? What if I just length the femur by 8cm and not the tibias? Would it look good or bad? I'm 5'6 and I'm planning to just achieve 5'9 after the surgery.
No LON is not recommended
what is the total cost of the method
precice¿? please
It will vary where you get it done but usually $75k to 110k in United States and maybe $55k to 100k internationally
What would be the best for athletes for the best healing
Good nutrition and lots of rest. But if you mean devices I would say an internal nail that can be accurately lengthened
