(precise) Difference of doing 2*0.50mm vs 3*.033
« on: September 28, 2022, 04:17:54 PM »
Hi, O reached 2cm, I have a very fast bone healing so I had to do 1.5mm to prevent pre consolidation.

Now because of Pain Im allowed to do 1mm for few days (and then xray will decide).

Can I just do 2.0.50mm or do I have to setup like 3*0.33?

When you lengthen it applies a very high pressure on your soft tissue in a very small amount of time. The soft tissue then has to adapt and stretch. In general I think doing multiple smaller lengthening iterations would be better for the soft tissue. You should always ask your doctor though.
