Does anyone here know what is meant by 1 or 2 cuts of the tibia? I've heard this terminology from a couple of surgeons.

2 cuts means they cut/break the bone in more than one place, so you have two gaps instead of one.  Some surgeons prefer patients to have two smaller gaps than one large one.

Is it riskier to get two cuts? A 2 cut approach would greatly reduce the distraction time though which is a huge plus for those who have limited time

I am really interested due to the low price. Does anyone have interest too so that we can search more information together. I am a Hongkonger with the height of 164 cm, meeting one of the criteria. I wish to gain at least 7 cm more, reaching 171 cm, which is average in my country.

I have been talking to them for almost 8 months and went to kurgan for consultatiin with them.

 They said they do the 1 cut for 5 cm or less. The two cut for over 5 cm.
the two cut allows for faster distraction of up to 2mm per day for the first 5-10 days. After that the rate of lengthening slows down.

Even i thought, damn 2mm is really fast.

but they pioneered this operation and they do it on a regulard basis so im kind of trusting them.

They pioneered this operation. Do they have any successful cases for sharing? When will you start your operation? I would like to know more your experience dealing with them. I sent them an email last week but have not yet received any reply.

My doc seemed to think the double cut is a terrible idea for cosmetic lengthening.

Don't be upset. You may try Dr Barinov (in Volgograd) or Dr Bagirov (in Moscow). I think the prices are just similar.
