Thanks for the update! Can you provide some more details about nail removal since I'm about to do so as well. How was the 2nd day, what about after that, were you limited in anyway besides some possible minor pain? My Doctor said it would take just a couple of days to recover.
Hi Brb6ftTall, it's good news, can I know what's the cost to remove the rods, thanks
Hi Brb6ftTall,
I am planing to do LL next year with Dr. M and I dont have any friend or faminy with me. My question is How much did you pay for caretaker?
Thank you and best wish to you.
Hello all, haven’t updated this in forever. I simply don’t think about LL anymore, I can run a lot smoother after rod removal, though not at my previous speed yet, and I can go to the gym and do everything I did before. I haven’t tried playing basketball or other sports yet, but that’s only because there hasn’t been an opportunity. I also feel that my speed and conditioning could be a lot better by this point, but I just haven’t made time to actually run and train. Other things in life are just taking priority now a Days, so I’m very sorry I haven’t been able to come back and post about how I’ve gotten back to pre-LL strength, speed etc. but please know that this is only because I haven’t made the time for it, not because I feel limited in any way.
As for the few questions that were asked: unfortunately I can’t answer them. I had a family member stay with me so I did not pay, and my rod removal was covered under insurance for “painful hardware removal” so I didn’t pay for that either.
If I ever do get back to my previous LL strength and speed, I’ll try and post it on here. But who knows when that day will be. I do hit the gym multiple times a week, so the strength part will come a lot sooner than the speed part, but currently my numbers for Legs are only about 70% of what I could do pre-LL. I’m positive this could already be 100% though if I had been more consistent for all these months.
In closing, I’d just like to say thanks to everyone who read this diary and I hope I helped all of you in some way. Please look at this diary as an example of a successful surgery, and know you can still achieve your dream of being taller and still be in great physical shape afterwards.

Hello 21Franco,
Below is the cost of the height lengthening procedure done with Dr. Mahboubian.
$750 consultation fee can be applied towards your surgery cost!
Bilateral femur lengthening (Precise nail) -----------------$65,500.00
Bilateral tibia lengthening (Precise nail) -----------------$75,000.00
Combined tibia and femur lengthening 3-4 weeks apart-------$139,000.00
*Upgrade to the full weight bearing STRYDE nail for $5000 more
The cost covers hospital stay for up to 3 days. It is recommended but not mandatory that you remain in the United States for the entire lengthening process. If that is impossible, a minimum of 2-3 weeks are necessary to ensure all went well with the procedure and that the lengthening phase began well.
