I am researching this for my son, not for myself. It’s similar to inquiring about whether your daughter wanted a nose job. However, you must visit a top surgeon. There are many poor surgeons in Turkey and Asia.
It is more painful, time-consuming, and risky than a rhinoplasty. Additionally, being short places you at many disadvantages in life compared to having an unattractive nose.
Imagine you underwent limb lengthening decades ago and are now 40-60 years old with a son aged 18-30 standing at a height of 5’2-5’7, expressing a strong desire to undergo the procedure. Would you encourage his decision? How would you react if he discovered you had undergone limb lengthening in the past? Would you advise against it?
Of course I would if he was less than average height.
How would I not support my son while I did the same thing? And even my dad supported me who didn’t even know about limb lengthening before I did it.
I would totally support my son to do limb lengthening if he hasn’t had a respectable height and I would also pay for it if I had the money.
