If only I had the courage to go for it nonetheless. Ideally internals would be the choice but otherwise LON. How has your dating options been affected? Not gonna deny, I am getting depressed on my height affecting my dating. This is one of the main reasons im thinking of this.
LON femur is not a valid choice for anyone with money or ability to earn the money needed for this surgery
You are not some poor 5 ft tall pakistani kid
Don't be a retard and earn the money for a proper PRECICE 2.2 surgery with a responsible doctor with an adequate policy on complications payment. For example if you go with Rozbruch in new york for 130 000 dollars, if something happens and you need additional surgery the doctor will waive his fee, however you still will need to pay 20 000 USD per day for hospital stay so not really a solution isnt it? History shows that the majority of the complications cases are a result of poor post op care so make that your priority when evaluating your options

My apologies, as I see this is a LON Femur thread, and thought you are considering this method. Any person considering Lon femur around here needs a brutal reality check before its too late
Lon tibia is a BREEZE compared to LON femur, and have in mind im talking out of experience as I just finished the process myself.
Dr Lee is the absolute best top choice for Lon tibia, and you will not be disappointed. He is shockingly pricey for a non western doctor though, so if you want a cheap Lon tibia there are other options, im not going to shill for the doctor who did my surgery but I finished pretty much unscathed
EDIT
Regarding your impression of "full weight bearing experience". Despite what the name entails, once the frames come on you will not be able to do your previous daily tasks as usual but just with some leg frames on. You will almost certainly be unable to do anything without a walker, then after the frames come off you still have to use walker and crutches while your soft tissues stretch(unable to keep balance) and the bone develops some consolidation to allow for weight bearing without assistance.
Compared to PRECICE which also requires assistance, I personally do not see a big difference in the weight bearing protocol of the both methods and you will get to the same conclusion yourself if you do proper further research.
People think that PRECICE means you will be using a wheelchair for the ENTIRE consolidation period - 7-9 months but its actually not true, as around month 3-4 the callus has hardened enough to take some of the weight of the body in addition to the built in weight capacity of the precice nails which as far as i remember was 35 kg per nail for the fattest nail size
Food for thought

Quote from: Jamesy998 on July 06, 2022, 08:56:22 PMSorry about the extremely late response mate. Did you get you’re surgery done?
There are much better options then Turkey if you are still thinking about it. Although this surgery was 100% worth it, I would have done internals instead, nice to be able to recover and lengthen at home instead.
Did you think about using a Plasma pen to remove your scars? 
I don't know if it's possible, but I will try 
I thought I would drop in and give you guys an update. Everything was pretty much forgotten about and I was recovered after a year post surgery so I didn’t really think about coming back to post here.
I have had zero pain issues or any form of complications in the last 2 years give or take. Obviously pre surgery athleticism was significantly better and anyone who tells you otherwise is most definitely lying as this surgery takes a massive toll on it. I am 100% happy I made this decision and I haven’t even thought about height since then. The confidence comes slowly as you recover fully and you then completely forget that it was ever an issue. My legs don’t get tired on me and my endurance is great.
I urge everyone not to get it done in Turkey unless it’s the very last option. If I were to go back in time I would save up a bit longer and just get internals instead. I will stay around this forum for a while in the next few days if anyone has any questions that need answering.

The confidence aspect got a lot better but in a way that no one really mentions my height anymore so it’s not considered a “negative” to women but truth be told I pulled more women when I was shorter as I am handsome in general and have a decent personality so it’s not all about height.
My advice is, if you are doing it for just women I would not get it done solely for that purpose, I had an insecurity about being short in general, I never had issues dating before so if you were to get this done, if you were unsuccessful with women before you might be the same after surgery as height isn’t all that. LL won’t magically make women fall for you, they just won’t care about your height anymore.
Indeed. For me being short is way a lot worse than having Ebola and Parkinson. I really wish I could have opted for being a special kid but with a good height instead of being a healthy but a short kid... Anyway a man must be not short otherwise it will be way more nervewrecking than having Ebola or Smallpox.
