PALEY Precise 2.2 7cm lengthened Q & A

Edit Post

My parents cooked for me so that’s somewhere I saved a bit of money. I think it cost us about 125k in total so you should be fine.

No idea , sorry. Don’t know if I said but I’m Chinese myself and I’ve heard from many that this surgery is very looked down upon in China , so I would be careful with mentioning it.

Alrighty then. Thx. I will find the answer myself.
Do you inquire something about the time when Stryde nails can come back into Paley's?
I hope I can do Option 5 when I hit USA.

Good look on your new era of your life! For how long are you supposed to use wheelchair?

Wheelchair/walker for about 5 months , then crutches, then walking for me

How was the care with Dr. Paley and his team? As good as its regarded, ie, "the best in business"?

Can’t say best in the business as I’ve only done this surgery with him, but certainly phenomenal care. It was the scariest experience of my life but they made me feel as safe as you could possibly feel going through something like this. Medical experts are all… experts lol , very knowledgeable and can explain anything. The PT team though are fking amazing, great physical therapy and equally valuable emotional support. If you can afford it , do paley.

Good to know! I am planning on going with Paley and its good to hear it wasn't a regretted choice for you. I'm not keen to pony up the $100k+ and feel like it was a fk up of a choice lol. Cheers.

Another question if thats alright - any reason you went to 7cm but not the whole 8 of the precise nail?

How old are you pal? What is your pre-surgery height? Could you work/study during the lengthening phase if it is remote?
