Hey everyone, just wanted to create a thread to document my impending LL journey.
About me: 25 y/o male, height: 175 (5'9), looking to add 8cm and reach 6'0.
Happy to answer any questions about the process.
Good luck to all who plan to embark on a similar journey.
75kQuote from: YourSpaceBoyfriend on January 16, 2017, 09:51:04 PMHow much did u paid for it?
Quote from: TIBIKE200 on January 16, 2017, 09:53:25 PMI thought Rozbruch had a height limit of 5'5 max for males no?
Back in 2013. I think he views height dysphoria as a relative rather than absolute thing now.
Quote from: TIBIKE200 on January 16, 2017, 10:25:31 PMwhat does the cost of 75k$ include and doesnt include?
all surgical aspects including ITB release, use of equipment, etc.
Quote from: TIBIKE200 on January 16, 2017, 10:49:15 PMbtw, when is your surgery date?
Good luck and have a safe lengthening
Few weeks, and thanks very much.
Quote from: TIBIKE200 on January 16, 2017, 11:00:09 PMSo no PT included? How much is overall estimated cost? I was communicated about 140k$ when i exchanged e mails with him.
PT doesn't necessarily have to be a separate cost. Most of his patients perform the exercises at home on their own to maintain range of motion, flexibility, etc.
Hospital costs (depending on your coverage) will be taken care of by insurance.
Quote from: Alu on January 17, 2017, 07:34:08 PMActually, yeah how is that possible?
Because the hospital stay in and of itself, is not an elective procedure. Its a standard medical expense that one is expected to incur for one reason or another over time. Same reason insurance covered the x-ray and technician costs at the initial consultation. Obviously the actual procedure falls outside of that category.

And are you doing Precice 2?
Extremely flexible.
Affirmative on PRECICE 2
Quote from: Lubak on January 17, 2017, 09:34:28 PMI'm having a very hard time believing that the pricing you are quoting for Dr. Rozbruch is accurate. Something seems way off to me. Do you have anything that proves $75,000 covers all medical expenses except rehabilitation? You must have at least been provided an official cost estimate from Dr. Rozbruch in person or via email.
I have never heard of medical insurance in the United States covering any kind of costs incurred during a cosmetic procedure. Usually insurance companies in the United States do everything humanly possible to avoid paying costs even when they are necessary to saving a persons life.
Let me just say I want what you are saying to be correct. I really really want what you are saying to be correct. It just seems way too good to be true.
Don't know how to upload images here, but yes i have a breakdown of the medical expenses summing to 75k. (There's an additional 10k for removal naturally)
And as i said, insurance has already started covering expenses. The X-rays cost $800 but my out of pocket portion was only $100.
The one thing i will say though, people considering this need to remember that Dr. Rozbruch has you evaluated by a psychologist completely independent of him. So even if he thinks you're a good candidate, if she says no, it's a no. And people do get turned away often so be mindful of this.
