In the comments of this page from Natural Height Growth site a user named Garfyld talks about Flexioss, a new Polish artificial bone.

Do you think this could revolutionize limb lengthening surgery and make it easier, faster and almost pain-free? Shorter people need a new, better solution and should make their voices heard all over the world.

I forgot to say that this is the site of Flexioss, the artificial bone that after implantation undergoes an integration with patient’s bone tissue and then is slowly remodelled and replaced with natural bone tissue: http://flexioss.pl/en/landing/
Maybe limb lengthening surgery could be easier with this.

Thank you Ghostfish! I had some doubts too about using Flexioss for limb lengthening. However, I wonder if it would be possible (and safe) to create a gap of 1.5/2 inches through surgery and fill it immediately with Flexioss, so that no external/internal device would be necessary.

Hi Ghostfish, you’re right. I was wondering just if a method to distract safely the bone and lengthen it immediately by 1.5/2 inches, creating a gap that must be filled with Flexioss, could ever exist. In this way only one surgery would be enough, and no external or internal device would be needed. But how to solve the problem of stretching nerves and muscles so much and so fast without damaging them?
