my good intention is to warn other patients that things may go wrong and they are completely on their own when medical problems arise. There have been some cases of this on this forum with your service as you may aware.

There has already been atleast one doctor change in this company which shows that the initial choice of doctor by the company wasnt satisfactory.

Also I am also not forcing people from not going to you. People are free to go where ever they wish.

You seem like a well intended person but with medical problems you cant do much. Your company is providing concierge like service. You may be good at what you do (concierge) but finally its the doctor that matters most. My only intention is to make people see the difference between your service (which I honestly think is good and prompt) and "medical" part of this procedure. Infact I sincerely wish services likes yours was there in other LL centres like in US

Cheers friend

PS: yeah you and your doctor are tall but why not reach 6 foot 2 and become chick magnets? just kidding man

We understand your concerns but as you see none of our patients had any major problems with their lengthening surgeries and Dr Halil BULDU did more than 500 Successful Limb lengthening surgery so far without any problem. Other thing is some people uses his name without his permission and then this causes misunderstandings as you see. We are the only company that works with Dr Halil BULDU. If you check Dr Halil's personal webpage, you can see that too. Other webpages otherthan us are just some people who trys to get some patients via using his name because all LL surgery community knows that he is one of the best surgeon in this field. Check it if you like. https://halilbuldu.com/en/limb-lengthening-packages/

Here is another success story. This patient came from Georgia to have Limb Lengthening Surgery (LON Method) and Yesterday he sent me his final status video and he also allowed us to share it with you guys.
Feel free to ask your questions.

When he arrived he was 172cm and now he is 179cm. Also rightnow he is waiting to borders to be opened for his second surgery. Which means another 7cm. In total he will be 14 cm taller.
From 172cm to 186cm. The Video below is covers his journey from start to end

Ok, good advertiesement. Without getting into arguments you share info professionally.

Two questions tho, you said dr Buldu made nearly 500 LL operations iirc, but you keep sharing the same patients over and over. Shouldnt we be seeing more successful cases if there are almost 500 cases?

And how much is the LON surgery excluding accommodation/transfer and including only the hospital expenses plus PT?

I understand LON = Higher risk of deep osteomyelitis(compared to nails or frames only), right? So why you use LON?

..But if you get infection you will spend even more! Not to mention the danger for your legs and the money loss because of not being able to work for a very long time. Do you really wanna go there...?

Hello Arcon here is your answer;

What we do is giving options to people who wants this surgery;

LON means Lengthening Over Nail. There will be 2 devices on each leg internal and external.
Advantages compare to PRECICE and STRYDE:
+ You don’t need a motorized nail. Patients usually can walk right after surgery.
+ Highly reliable and most commonly performed method in the World currently.
+ Most important factor is reasonable cost compare to Precice and Stryde.
- People Who had LON Surgery needs a second surgery for removal of their external fixators and fixator nails after lengthening period.
- Discomfort of the external extensors
- Visible from outside
- Takes longer time to heal compare to internal nail systems after lengthening period
- Infection risk at the exhaust of external extensor nails during lengthening period

By infection risk it's mostly minor and treatable with little intervention and medication not internal

What you need to understand is the risks like embolism etc are all same with all types of lengthening methods even with STRYDE.

So if you are considering to have lengthening surgery, you need to evaluate this from all aspects and choose the right one you think is best for your health and of course economy.
If you think LON is too risky to have it is your call to decide, you can choose to have Precice-2 or STRYDE.

Well i already answered your question about infection in my previous post. Most important thing in the Limb Lengthening surgery is the experience of the surgeon of course.
With LON and STRYDE methods people can continue their work if its a desk job but not with Precice-2 method because weight bearing of Precice-2 is about 25kg per leg while LON and STRYDE can lift 100kg per leg. So thats why people can walk with help of a small crutch, can drive car and climb stairs with these two methods.
By the way even today there are many surgeons who uses old methods like Iluzarov, HolyFix etc. These are options in both medical and cosmetic lengthening surgeries. So as i mentioned if you wish to have this surgery you do not have to come to us but choose an orthopedist who has plenty of experience in both medical and cosmetic lengthening surgery and evaluate the pros and cons of the method you wish to have. Also most importantly you need to be ready for this surgery mentally because no matter who you go or which method you have you will need to be patient enough to endure the difficulties of this surgery, doing daily physical therapy exercises till you get back to your normal physical condition which means you need to be willed and disciplined. Even if you spend 200k USD to your surgeon and method it is you who will walk and run not the method. If you think you are not ready or if you have second thought just do not have it at all. Most of our patients who just wants a single surgery for one segment and experiences this surgery wants to come back to us for a second surgery because they know how easy it was. I hope you understand what i mean. Have a lovely day and be safe during this Covid-19 times.

This is of course one of the most important reason because not all people has enough budget to have this surgery as you can imagine. We are trying to provide best surgery experience with reasonable prices in all of our methods and if you check and compare our method prices you can see the our packages are best in all USA and EU Market.
Other thing about why people wish to have this surgery with us is the experience of Dr Halil. Not all ortopedic surgeon does this surgery and has experience about it. Even in surgeons who does it, experience level is varies. While surgeons in USA and EU countries does about 5-8 surgeries per month, Dr Halil BULDU does 3-4 surgery every week. Not now because of Covid-19 times of course but we are hoping that travel restrictions will be lifted by the end of June. And even now we had applications from more than 20 patients who just waits for the border restrictions to be lifted.

We wish to share too to be honest but as you can imagine not all people willing to allow us to share their story on web, they do not even allow us to shoot a photo and we can not force them anyways. Its their privacy and we are obligated to respect that. Otherwise there could be lawsuits against us and we do not want that aswell .

Well.. excluding transportation and hotel stay, its 15,000EURO.
