I had read on the forum that he had unfortunately had complications after the operation, and that he preferred to leave social networks.
Maybe he regrets

Hope he's ok. Doing LL in 2024 seems to be harder than a decade ago

Maybe it's related to his massive upper body and his weight negatively affected the nails inside his bones in the legs.

The other black guy (the rapper) seems to be fine after 6 inches of LL though. He's still recovering but his progress looks good and IMO he will recover sooner or later.

If I understood correctly, after this operation you will no longer really be able to play basketball... Just a little light weight training, at the limit...

Well it's up to you, here is the journey of a guy who went from 1m82 to 1m98:

You can find interviews with him on youtube, he is known as "Hulk of Livelifetaller"
 He also had an Instagram page, but it no longer exists, according to rumors due to his health problems following the operation...

Who was his doctor? They should have tried to talk him out of it. IMO anyone who's in the 6.0+ range who wants to get CLL should receive a proper psych eval b/c that's just not normal. This poor guy looks really horrible post-surgery with noticeably crooked legs (which I suspect is due to the fact that he used LON, but still).

If you're 6 foot tall and you think you're short, what you are suffering from is likely a mental condition, not physical. You have a distorted perception of reality. If I were the OP, I would seriously reconsider this procedure. The rewards are minimal for the amount of risk you are taking.

The risk/reward sweet spot for CLL is probably 170cm -> 180cm.

Her doctor is Halil Buldu of LiveLifeTaller.
They are known for advertising on social media, sometimes offering deals to smaller influencers. In order to have visibility.
They seem to think that for profit

Personally I spoke with the boss of WannaBeTaller. He advised me against doing the operation, he himself went from 1m60 to 1m72, and he doesn't even know if he would do it again if he had to do it again.

And yes as you say the psychologist before embarking on the operation can put the ideas back in place
For my part, I didn't feel small, but as I had grown very quickly and was 1m85 tall at 14/15 years old, I always had a bitter feeling of not having grown up after 15 years like most people. . I really thought I was going to be 2m

 The psychologist allowed me to mourn this and accept my current size

The channel of the boss of WannaBeTaller where he talks about his personal experience, he is honest because he advises people against doing this operation as much as possible, even if it means making less profit:

There is a reason this surgery is called cosmetic. It is up for individual to decide if they wish to change their height or not. At 183 cm you can even lengthen more because your bones are longer though.

Yes DR. Bilgili told me he could add me 9cm instead of the 8cm max on the femur

I never said they should be prevented. It's obviously up to the individual. It's your right to smoke as well. That doesn't mean you shouldn't be advised against it.

To be clear, the question here isn't whether you can lengthen more at 183cm or not. That's beside the point. Aside from the fact that the person we saw in that video had a terrible looking outcome, the general point is that if you are that tall and you think you're short, you have a warped sense of reality. Psychological help is more likely to alleviate your issue than anything physical.

A person who is 160cm tall is not being delusional about their height if they think they're short. A person who is 183cm tall absolutely is. I can understand wanting to go from 180 to 185 with a single procedure just for the aesthetics. But feeling the need to do 15cm for someone who is already tall is absurd imo. It's a lot of risk for very little reward. You quickly reach a point of diminishing returns once you're past 185cm. After 189cm, it's pure risk with basically zero reward.

I understand this guy seems to partly want to do it for athletic reasons, but that makes it an even worse idea given the well documented loss in athleticism.
