There must have been an event or events that made you decide to do LL at such a young age

I kinda described this in the first post, but basically I've been around tall people my entire life and was tired of being the "short" one. I always thought I would grow, and held out hope for the longest time until I found out my growth plates were closed. When it came down to it, being the size I was just didn't line up with how I saw myself being as an adult, and without this extra height I couldn't imagine being satisfied with myself. In the end, I decided to do LL in order to become the person I truly wanted to be, and I wanted to do it sooner rather than later.

$72k for surgery + hospital stay, my insurance covered meds and PT.

His office does accept insurance yes, but since it's a cosmetic surgery your insurance most likely won't cover any of it. Mine didn't

I say it because someone went to rozburch who is on paleys level who charges normally around 100k and this insurance got it down to 50k. I wonder if the same insurance was use could reduce the price to 40 or 30k. By the way if you are 22 how did you aford this?

Oh I see, well yes then theoretically if one has that insurance I see no reason why it wouldn't work for Dr. M's office as well.

I had a job all throughout high school and I was really good at saving. When I set my mind to this, I worked 2 jobs, sometimes 3, while relentlessly saving and also applying for credit cards to boost my credit limit. I didn't actually have all the money but I did have most of it, the rest I was able to charge to my cards since by that time I had more than enough credit to do so.

Do you know how much your hospital fees were? 6 Feet soon qoute that he saved 35k from hospital fees and 25k from the surgery so total 60k. Im not sure if it would be the same because then it be 12k for the surgery with Mahbouian..... But if it was  about 30k it would be a gigantic bargin still.

Hospital fees were $40k, plus a bit more than $1k for the anesthesiologist fee.
