@@MilIMeta Of course people have more fear regarding doing the tibias because it's much bigger risk, less overall safe height gain and take longer to heal. They're overall much worse choice...
I am a year post-femur surgery, recently I experienced a clicking sensation and sharp pain while applying pressure on my leg, particularly when climbing stairs. However, after a week, these issues have completely vanished. Is this a cause for concern, and have you encountered similar cases before? Thank you,
Hi Victor, I am 23 years old right now, will be 24 in Summer (31.07.2001),I am planning to do this surgery with IM nails at the age of 25 or 26, because my financial condition is not available for this yet, I am healthy, my body, especially legs are both muscular and flexible, I never had any health issue in my life, so, my question is Will I be able to remove IM nails completely once I will be gone through the whole progress?(And consider implementing surgeries both with tibia and femur)
Hi victor will I gain the same benefits of cosmetic limb lengthening surgery height wise if I fix a congenital limb length discrepancy please reply. Thank you
What do you think about femur lengthening only with a fixator and after converting to a plate to give stability to the bone, is this type of technique reliable?
External fixators are going to give you more pain, and risk. However if everything goes smoothly, you will most likely never suffer any long term implications. Internal nail devices will give you less pain, and less risk on the front end of things. However long term implications are more likely to happen due to the fact that you have material in your leg that shouldn't be there. But I guess you can call yourself a cyborg so it's not as bad.
@@Lemontus That's why i said it's more risky. There has to be a device made that can lengthen the bones without the need to put rods in the legs. Like a way to break the bones from the outside.
Lol...The grow is in the long term. With precice or LON you can gain 8 cm in three months. The rate is 1 mm x day ..If you like reach 13 cm or more. You should tiba and femur together at same time () or in different times separately....yes It is longer process that requires a long term recovery
Because I'm sooo busy answering patient messages and comments and consultations from 5 other platforms 😂. Nah but I will get back to it this summer once I start gearing up for my last season next year. It's just a lot not to mention my training and job and life. I'm more in content creator mode than content consumer mode ; )
@4LifeI'm a becker patient. I got mine done the 31st of January. I'm pretty mobile already going from 165 to hopefully 172 femur. I have personally had a very good experience so far, I was under the impression that the betz and becker clinic was one of the most well known ones, so I just found it strange that you didn't mention it. Did other patients you talked with tell you that they had bad experiences? I'm open to all experiences different patients may have had.
I haven’t had my consultation yet, but based on the discussion I had with my doctor, it may end up that I have no choice but to use a Taylor Spacial Frame. I would much prefer an internal nail myself, but like I said I may not have a choice, and I’m a bit concerned about the discomfort I’m going to feel. But, in the end it will be worth it for a lifetime of not having to worry about my discrepancy anymore.
Hi, there I would like to ask do you know why I did my surgery already almost there years but I still can’t bending the knee completely, I mean like this 🧎 🥲🥲
are you taking some supplements? may be those could help. i read a comment in one of his videos here the guy named Gabrielle. started taking some bone supplements and that helped his recovery faster. hope you feel better.
I hope limb length surgery is available and accessible in all states in the next coming years oppose to certain states.
Avoiding doing tibia+fibula , LON / externals and doing lengthening in Turkey, India and Vietnam decreases the complication rate by a lot!
I'll never understand this fear people have regarding tibias
is vietnam bad?

@@MiguelOliveira-wz4ju The limb lengthening forum is currently down, but on their there was some horror stories from Vietnam.
I heard turkey has the highest success rate for limb lengthening surgery.

Thank you,
I’d like to know the answer to your question too
That's strange, which method was used?
@@gj9157 fitbone internal nail
Wut? Sounds like you’re terminator now
How much you lengthened
Any update for 3d printing for LL?
Not as of yet. PLus they don't want to talk...ahem...Ossiform
God bless you for this very helpful comparisons.
Now can you do this surgery locations by country and price? 🙏
I have done that in a recent video about two months ago

For tibiya and fibula facture what is the best ???
Depends on if you have a deformity or not. If so, I would say ask the surgeon to be sure but if you had a choice I think internals are best
Victor you did your femur with a ring fixator or monorail?
I had monolateral ex-fix on my right femur from accident and got 1cm in overgrowth and I did LL on my tibia using internal nail over a decade later
Hi victor , what do you think about live life taller clinic ?can you make a video about it?
Which is the best nail available in India
Not sure as of right now
Hi victor will I gain the same benefits of cosmetic limb lengthening surgery height wise if I fix a congenital limb length discrepancy please reply. Thank you
You could I did. You're only as tall as your shortest leg 🤷♂️
What do you think about femur lengthening only with a fixator and after converting to a plate to give stability to the bone, is this type of technique reliable?
I think it's similar to the lengthening and then nailing technique which is already a thing
G nail ?
Hi, what’s ur opinion about the surgeon Javier Downey Carmona?
Glad you find it helpful
External fixators are going to give you more pain, and risk. However if everything goes smoothly, you will most likely never suffer any long term implications.

Yup becoming a cyborg after LL is a true badge of honor
doesn’t that nails supposed to be removed later on?
@@Lemontus No. Internal fixators are for life.
@@Lemontus That's why i said it's
more risky. There has to be a device made that can lengthen the bones without the need to put rods in the legs. Like a way to break the bones from the outside.
@@dixonvmusic2737 I checked. Internal rods get removed after 12-18 months.
very helful.
Hey vic another dumb question if I am 181 in morning and I do 13 cm lengthening will I be 194 cm in morning post op???
I'm not sure. Possibly based on the numbers but can't say it will be easy
@@Cyborg4Lifewill I at least be close to 194 range if not exactly 194???

Can I gain 10cm with the IM Nail method?
Victor, would you be looking forward to interview Dr.Amar Sarin from India?
And can you suggest some good CLL doctors from India?
You can email me
curious to know what is needed to be a candidate for LL, as a cosmetic procedure?
i would assume it’s jus whether your growth plates are closed?
That and health and money and mental toughness
How come you don't show yourself anymore performing lower body lifting videos like deadlifts, squats, etc ? Your IG page is 3 years old...

External tibia method have high percent of bone deformation
Not necessarily in the right surgeon's hands
Why do you specifically avoid talking about Becker/ Bets when it's one of the most prominent clinics in the world? It's odd.
Oh really is it? I ranked them based on what patients have told me. Actual Becker and betz patients so idk you tell me 🤷♂️

Oh man a TSF can be a bit more inconvenient due to bulk but still gets the job done to fix your discrepancy. That's the goal and so worth it ; )
STRYDE 2.0 when?
Today at least at one clinic I know of
PRECISE IS THE BEST
Internal nail is too invasive and therefore more painful.
Not necessarily
External are more painful
