Asking for Self, Male, 20 years old, Karachi
Hi, My height is 5 feet. I want to grow my height and my age is 20. What should I do? Is it possible to grow my height now? If I go for limb lengthening surgery, will it help in growing my height?
Looking forward for you reply. Thanks.
Limb lengthening via ilizarov is one of the option for short stature. But prior any surgical intervention, clinical assessment required. Kindly visit my clinic will let u know the desired option suitable for you. Thank you again for asking me your problem.
Hi, yes it is possible but lengthy procedure with complications. Thanks
Thanks
Please inform the heights of your parents and brothers and sisters
Thanks Please inform heights of your close family members
Cosmetic Limb Lengthening is a lengthy and complex process and may take more than a year depending on how much lengthening is aimed and if the process is interrupted by complications or not. Secondly, as extra height is the aim so it leads to disproportionately shorter arms and that may actually look strange.
It is (cosmetic limb lengthening) a serious decision and most orthopaedic surgeons with experience do not recommend it.
Yes
don't worry proportion of body parts is the beauty. However if you feel it necessary to gain height Yes it is possible and we can do it.
