Title: I am back (Limb Lengthening Australia 2020 - 2023)
Post by: account5000 on November 24, 2023, 02:48:42 PM: Some of you might remember me from 2020 when I first was getting my surgery (originally largely under insurance).

Due to changes in the insurance coverage I had to take sometime to work things out but finally I am back at the stage where we are looking at surgery dates again for the operation!

Going to be much much more expensive but I am just grateful to be able to do it in Australia and in my home state also!

Post by: 1team on December 26, 2023, 03:55:10 PM: Has your surgeon had any other cosmetic limb lengthening patients that you could meet? Since CLL is really uncommon in Australia

Post by: Brazzy on January 15, 2024, 08:44:21 PM: Doctor’s name please… I’m also in Australia and will follow your thread closely. I believe you will be the first in this forum to do in Australia. It’s a game changer for Aussies. Good luck and thanks for posting.

Post by: Throwaway93 on July 25, 2024, 03:40:16 AM: Hi, any chance for an update? I'm also located in NSW, Australia. There is one surgeon I found but the last update from 2022 stated they weren't taking any new CLL patients. Would be interested to know if this is your surgeon as it potentially means their bookings for CLL are open again.

Also, are the 100k for one segment only/which one or both?
