Quote from: zaozari on December 20, 2021, 09:42:28 PMBelieve me, I understand your suffering. I am 5,0" and neurosis leading to depression, altough I had 3 very nice girlfriends (in all aspects....) 2 or 3 cm taller (and sometimes more, with high heels) which apparently were not enough confidence booster :-( and I lost them because of me only.
So if you feel you are stuck and not already "depressed enough" to make the best judgement, go ahead before getting worst. I think I know a chance of doing LL with the money you have and I would never post it here if I wasn't considering it for myself also in terms of safety. But I haven't finished my research and if you consider it, you should do it also. I think I should not post all details to everybody until I have better knowledge, I don't want to minimally influence negatively somebody too young or inexperienced that may be in the forum. However, everybody can find this, I can also PM more details for somebody who is interested. I am not promoting this!! (You can check my other 220 posts).
This is not a greedy doctor, he first refused to do it on me because of my age, then I promised to do intensive physiotherapy and he accepted but only up to 6 or 6,5 cm! He is experienced enough.
He does only tibias and LON. Costs are the following (don't include :Achilles tendon lenghtening if needed):.
There are 3 packages you can choose from.
BASIC PACKAGE
- US $10,000 Including surgeon fees, hospital fees, implant costs, nail+frame cost, analgesics, 10 nights in hospital after implantation, 3 nights in hospital after EF removal, hospital meals.
STANDARD PACKAGE (For lengthening 6cm)
- US $15,000 Including everything in Basic Package + Accommodation and meals in 60 days of lengthening period in an 1-bedroom apartment, 40 hours of physical therapy.
PREMIUM PACKAGE (For lengthening 7cm)
- US $19,000 Including everything in Basic Package + Accommodation and meals in 90 days in an 1-bedroom apartment, 60 hours of physical therapy, pick-up and transfer to and from airport.
Note that premium package doesn't really "offer" 7 cm. It only assures treatments and physiotherapy IF your body supports 7 cm.
Some people say they spend less with less inclusive packages if they arranje accomodation and caretakers by themselves.
I am interested, who is the doctor?
