Height Increase surgery

[classy65gmc]

i will be 29 next month

A girl I went to high school with had this done because on leg was 1 inch shorter, It took months to recover had all sorts of devices in her leg to stretch tendonds and such slowly. She said when it was going on she would have rather stayed wearing risers in her shoe the rest of her life. Your just doing it because of a self esteem issue, your nuts.

Is this type of surgery that much different than nose jobs, boob jobs, lipo, chin implants etc?

Yes this surgery basically doesn’t exist.

Just a few crazy’s trying to make money off us poor short guys.

Nobody has mentioned that he's only 137lbs! After surgery and rehab he could be down to 125lbs at 5' 11"!!! I would worry more about gaining some serious muscle! That alone would make you appear taller.

There's no way in hell your going to be 5'11" and weigh 200lbs in the 18-24months you suggested!

I have recently gone on a major diet and cardio regimen to loose 20lbs

I have been as high as 165 at a lower % so I know I can get back up there quick with some help

I am leaning less and less on doing this

 

[lookingforanedge]

what you guys think? Am I crazy or?

 

[lookingforanedge]

Any other thoughts?

What we really want is happiness, so you have 2 choices. Find a way to be happy with what you have (counselling, psychiatry), or do the procedure ONLY if it is safe and affordable. I would be scared though. How strong can those bones be? Especially down the road. Any long term studies on this?

I should mention that in general I have a small frame and stature. I am currently 5'7.5" and 137 lbs at 12.3% body fat.

My goal would be to be 5'11" 190-200 lbs at 8% or so.

It would take 18-24 months.

If you can grow that much, do it,

And let me know, because I will do it too,

I am 5’5” on a good day.
