[Frederico86]

Hi guys,

Its been a while I havent been back to the forum.
Just wanted to say now im 9 weeks after removal of the frames and im.making good improvments. Knee bending is on 130 degrees and improving. My walking is getting back to normal but still a bit stiff.If anyone is interested in more information about Dr Buldu pls reach out to me I would be glad to help. Be careful with some promoters charging a lot of money for the procedure thrust patients that have done it. Cheers guys !

You seem to be progressing at a steady rate! Reading this kind of reminds me when I couldn't move my knee a few years ago but obviously the situation is much different. So glad you're getting your mobility back and I wish you a full recovery!

Shut up more

[Ozoz]

Ooo fredico my best friend can you walk mam are you okay 

[PerfectBody]

Hey man, I speak to Fred pretty regularly on whatsapp - he's a responsive and cool guy. He can walk normally, but he can't run yet. Remember, both his legs were completely broken recently 😅 But in general he loves his transformation.

I'm going to Buldu next week to have my legs broken too. I'll keep my diary updated and maybe make an instagram account for it too.

Please show us your walking video please! Really need that motivation from LLers like you

[PerfectBody]

Bro neither of us can walk or will be walking for at least another week or two. We couldn’t move our legs for the first three days. When we “walk” at the hospital it’s assisted by two people for a total of like 10 steps.

Please show us your walking video please! Really need that motivation from LLers like you

Hasnt Frederico done this since Nov last year? It should have been more than 6 months?

[moretallpls]

is this real ?? i mean never seen a patient posting phone numner and telling all to call him for all information about livetaller and surgery packages?? im thinking about doing surgery in istambul but all seems quite strange

[Jokerhastowait2022]

It's not strange. With all the respect for Dr. Buldu, he "recruits" patients for attracting more people to get the surgery done with him. I don't think it's a bad thing but I don't know how he manages to deliver the same quality and care for 20+ patients of his.

He’s a good surgeon, he does the operation every single day. But you have to understand it’s a business, the more operation he does, the more money he makes, so obviously he is going to try to advertise and recruit people

Hahaha 20 patients?? Try 100+ 😂🤣🤣 Seriously the service is stretched thinner than my foreskin at night

Damn 100+ CLL patients at one clinic in Turkey? What country/countries do most of these patients come from?

The patients I’ve met were mostly states and Canada. The first week felt terrible, I would never go through that pain again. But now since the balls rolling I have to go with it, already spent the money, booked the airbnbs, went through with the surgery, etc
The patients with tibias done have probably half the difficulty. I’m day 17 post op and it feels like it’s been 2 months. Most of them stay at BOF hotel in atesehir

I thought there would be only a few people too but it’s nearly like an assembly line lol, the doctor seems to be in the operating room every single day

Why do u say tibias is half the difficulty though?

[Activatedxx]

Why do u say tibias is half the difficulty though?

It doesn’t go through soft tissue so less pain, also not painful when taking bowel movement, much easier to sleep, etc, only bad thing is tibia is 5-6cm maximum safely

[moretallpls]

BUt how do you know you contact direct to doctor and not any scam tourism company, la wanabetaller o others ?

Hey Fred, how noticeable do you find your new height?

[Frederico86]

I'm starting to really notice that there are not many people taller then me...every woman is smaller definitely  and male its like I'm taller then 70 % of them ...

Hey Frederico, i hope you're doing well.
Do you have any pictures of your scars?

[nn123]

Hi dear,

I did my surgery with Halil Buldu last year and I have had a great experience. I am planning a removal surgery this summer and I came back to the blog for info. I have always intended to write about my experience and describe physio or even do a youtube video, but, never came to it. However, as I saw that my favorite Doctor is being blamed for no reason I could not stop myself but to respond.

I do not understand why there is so much controversy regarding Dr. Buldu. It's been 10-11 months since my surgery and I text him one or twice a month and he has been incredibly supportive and responsive. I visited him in April this year and he did not even charge me for the visit, he had many clients from different countries and he definitely does not need any marketing. The person who is talking/advertising him on the platform is probably an agent, I definitely don't think that Buldu is trying to market himself. He is incredibly hardworking.

Regarding the patients, there is so much doctor blaming, whereas we need to in the first place do our own research and recheck all the facts and definitely do a lot of physio. I was double-checking everything because I wanted to be extra careful and I took my physio very seriously.

Some doctors do the surgery and then the patient leaves to his/her country and even though they were told not to do more than 8 cm the patient sometimes comes back with 12 cm and 0 physio, and then the Doctor is being blamed. That's not fair. I have heard these stories from my physiotherapist in Istanbul.

For myself, I was always the one reaching out to my Doctor and asking and following up on everything. Getting the surgery done is the easiest part, the hardest is the physio and recovery and each patient should take care of that.

if you guys have any questions please feel free to ask me. i will write the response or maybe even do a youtube video, i can definitely share my x-rays.

[Apollo676]

Hello please share your x-rays,what method did you used ? LON ? On femurs ? How is your range of motion now and how the whole lenghtening process went for you ?

[Skyisthelimit]

Hello Frederico! I’m glad to see that you’re walking already, and it even looks quite nice! Have you measured yourself lately? If you have, how tall are you now? Also, if it’s not too much trouble, could you post a picture with your younger brother, barefoot? I remember watching your first video in LiveLifeTaller and you compared your height to your brother’s, and that was where you were going to end up. Thanks for the updates!

Regards,
Sky

[ll.patient]

Hi Frederico, congratulations for you lenghtening!

I am curious here, did you lengthened at a rate of 1.5mm until the end?
