Can you use distraction to lengthen shoulders?

I've seen about a dozen posts on this forum which quote the few surgeons who do it, some say it can make shoulders look much wider while others say it would not.

Is there even any medical literature about it?

A gun and a bullet is an easier way to kill yourself.

Clavicles aren't limbs, so we're not that familiar with it.

Here's a paper on it. This doctor no longer performs it, probably for a good reason. Have you looked into bulking up first?

I believe if this wasn't essentially suicide, if attempted for cosmetic reasons on adults, all the LL charlatans we know of would have jumped on that train for extra money. They're used to crippling people, but even them might not feel too good killing most of their "patients".

Still, I haven't done any research or looked up anything on this subject. But I really don't intend to, considering the fact I mentioned above.

Why the heck would it kill a patient?

Is there proof his surgeries didn't work?

Broad shoulders are more important than height. I don't understand why everyone is against this procedure.

Considering you have """doctors""" in the world of CLL crippling people left and right in third-world countries, it seems strange they'd not jump on this for extra money when they have already being shown to lack morals, ability, and empathy when money is talking.

There's probably a catch to it, like we discovered here.

Because you can get broad shoulders by just gaining muscle. Surgery is stupid for this. You can't gain height without surgery.

Even taking steroids to gain bigger shoulders would probably be better than doing this surgery. If I could take steroids to gain height I would.
