Hello!, I want a LL surgery this year but I don't know so much about good Doctors on this field.

my currently height is 1.60cm 5' 3"
and I'm aiming for 1.65/1.66cm 5' 5"
Age: 28
either tibia or femur I don´t have the budget for tibia+femur

Dr. Lee Donghoon caught my attention but his price it's very expensive for my budget    since I prefer the PRECICE method (or maybe LON)
so do you guys know Doctors in USA, Spain, France or Latin America whose price is at least $40k - $50k?

Thank You

Thank You

At that price range for the countries you mentioned you will probably only find LON

[precice strider]

Giotikas precice 2 or Donghoon Lee LON.

Thanks, do you know if Dr. Lee LON surgery $40k - $50k includes the 90 days therapy in the hospital?

Dr Parihar would be roughly $15,000 for LON and you can stay at a great hotel in Mumbai with enough left over with that budget.

This is probably the best you're going to get. When you say $40k budget, you can't just have money for the surgery itself. You have to consider everything else like exchange fee, taxes, rent, food, flight, PT, and even have some on the side for complications. That's only the short list.

Someone who did LATN Still not recovered giving advise to another person which dr. and what method he should use
this is height of hypocrisy

You're confused.

I've never posted an x-ray where a rod was put inside.

You don't know what you're talking about.

Thank you for your replies, I think I'm going with Dr. Giotikas, I have two choices :

Going for 5cm on Tibias = 1.60cm > 1.65cm
or
Going for 3.5cm on Tibias and 3.5cm on femurs = 1.60cm > 1.67cm

I don't mind to pay more I'm just worried about body proportions (currently my Tibia and Femur are almost equal in terms of lenght) and safety in the long term since I dance and run as a hobbie, also I saw some before/after patients where the lenght it's too much that their arms looked so short.
I'll appreciate your opinions.

[Stryde2021]

Your budget is 40k but now you’re considering quadrilateral with Giotakis?  For a grand total of 7cm?  That makes no sense.

Also, your tibia and femur are almost certainly not nearly equal. This is something that can’t be measured at home—you need an X-ray.

[ty0324]

I forgot to update but now I have more Budget for doing both Tibias and Femurs and you're right an X-ray would give an exact measurement

[BelowTheMean]

If you're going to pay for quadrilaterals, you should really consider trying for 6+4. You can always stop early if you like how you look during lengthening. And yeah, it's pretty unlikely that your tibia bone is anywhere near as long as your femur bone. Get an X-ray and a consult with the doctor, then decide.

[10cmOnTibiaOrGTFO]

trust me cuz all you need is 7cm on femur.
