hi, i am planing my surgery with doctor salameh in november with another person from NYC.

I am from spain, i had two appoinment with this doctor in germany. The first, only with doctor Schmidt, and the second with both.

I had appoinment with doctor guichet in milan and doctor betz in Frankfurt, but their prices are impossible for me.

cheers

I am considering this Doctor too, but I maybe doing it in March/April.    What are your thoughts having consulted those Doctors (salameh/Schmidt, guichet and betz)?

i thought these were the best options to me. Because they are near to my country and i am going to charge the unemployment during the surgery. I think the best options for small tibia lengthening is salamehfix. My goal is 5 cm.

I am also considering to do 5-6 cms in tibias possibly in some years. Considering Dr Jamal's rising prices, the salamehfix becomes an interesting option especially as Dr Salameh operates in my home country Germany. If you decide to go with Salameh, please write a diary!

emanuel,

Sorry that this is going to be unrelated to the thread topic, but seeing that you went from 165 to 173 cm (same as my goal), I would like to know how you felt after LL. Did you gain or lose weight? How does your body look now, slimmer than your 165 cm former self? Do you feel taller than most women, and has LL affected your dating life significantly?

Thanks in advance. Cheers  ANYONE CONSIDERING SALAMEH IN NOVEMBER

The prices are the same that there are in theirs webs. Guichet 44000 euros and Betz 48500 for femur and 51500 for tibia.
And Salameh is 25000 euros. In this prices only it is the suergery.
For consultation with doctor Guichet 300 euros, doctor Betz 400 and Salameh don"t charged something.

1. I lost weight during LL (dont know how much, maybe 10 kg). Reasons are that for a large part I had very bad appetite and ate much less than usual, and also the fight of the body during LL.
2. Indeed, my body looks considerably slimmer now even after the weight returned. This is a good side effect, also because many people "explain" for themselves the difference of my appearance with the fact that I've gotten slimmer.
3. I am happily married, so I don't care about dating life  ANYONE CONSIDERING SALAMEH IN NOVEMBER

Good luck with your LL struggle!

I'm considering Salameh for lengthening my tibiae after my PRECICE femoral lengthening in May 2014, so I will probably go with him in May 2015 if everything goes smoothly.  Would be glad to see you some of you guys there as well.  ANYONE CONSIDERING SALAMEH IN NOVEMBER

But most importantly, please keep diaries if you're planning on going with him (or any doctor for that matter)!
