Hi,
Before I start I've read this forum a lot and what i'm about to outline is something deeply personal to me and whilst I understand there are many people around the world and indeed on this forum who maybe thinking .. why? you're lucky - I am in no way by asking this advice trying to come across ungrateful for what I have, we all have our own LL journey and this is mine.
I am a 23 year old male, who is currently 63 kg and 176cm. I would like to undergo LL to increase my height by 4.5-6cm depending on what is the safest and most tolerated by my body. My budget is around £40K.
Would people be able to suggest whether LL bilaterally via the tibia is best achieved using internals or externals? which ever is superior the reasons for and against would be appreciated. I am also concerned somewhat about scarring related to externals, do they fade with time, how bad are they due to pin sites compression?
Once again I'd appreciate your advice
Thanks!

I would recomment Dr. Giotikas. Check out his diaries on this forum. And his website.
