10 Steps to a Successful Limb Lengthening Surgery

I remember it like it was yesterday. I had recently graduated from college and I knew that I didn’t want to live the rest of my life with a height length discrepancy which could lead to early onset of arthritis, more severe scoliosis etc. So what did I do? I made a consultation with a surgeon who was a specialist at limb lengthening. She convinced me that she could get me back to my bodybuilding A-game. I was in a dilemma. I mean, here I was, supposed to trust someone with the fate of my bodybuilding career in her hands.

But I did just that. I took action. I made a list of pros and cons, and just kind of said ‘what do I have to lose’.3 weeks after the consultation…Surgery Day. The day my life changed forever…for the better…

Regardless, there are a lot of factors that play into it. 

And being someone who has gotten the procedure done, I have determined there are steps that gives structure to making the process a bit more manageable and not as overwhelming.

1. Making a consultation

2. Making a decision to get it done or not

3. Getting your financing right for the procedure

4. Schedule the Surgery Day

5. Post-Op support network

6. Rehab your Legs

7. Rebuild your Strength the first time

8. Get Hardware Removed about 1yr later

9. Rehab again

10. Rebuild again I just uploaded a new video talking in more depth about each of them: Watch: Steps to Getting Taller. Check it out below…
