Dr Porn-A-Nake Tardthong (Bangkok, Thailand) Vejthani Hospital

I received some feedback from him regarding the cost of his Fitbone surgery.

However, it is definitely excessive… 3 Million Thailand Dollars, which translates to 90,000 USD  

and, accommodations are not included.

Hospital profile page with patient testimonials:

The height that you may achieve will be approximately 5 – 8 centimeters based on your anatomical makeup. An essential caution concerning this procedure is to adhere strictly to our directives; complete bed rest and a solid understanding of why you need to use the wheelchair and limit strenuous movements.

*Please be aware that this limit may vary slightly, depending on your unique anatomical characteristics. If your legs are relatively short in comparison to your upper body, you are a suitable candidate for limb lengthening or height increase surgery. Nonetheless, the maximum increase one can achieve is about 12 cm or beyond.

Essentially, the procedure is segmented into 2 phases:

1. Distraction period: during the operation, the bone is severed and the Ilizarov External Fixator is attached. The surgeon uses Ilizarov to separate your tibias. When the surgeon carries out the procedure with Ilizarov, he will embed the interlocking nail into your bone prior to fracturing your bone. The interlocking nail will not secure the distal screws at that moment. The bone will be pulled to achieve about 5 cm within the following 50 days, commencing on the 10th
