Height Increase Surgeries

Home  /  Height Increase Surgeries
Height increase surgeries, or limb lengthening procedures, involve lengthening the bones of the arms or legs to increase overall height.
1
Preoperative Assessment

A thorough medical evaluation determines the patient's eligibility for limb lengthening surgery.

2
Surgical Procedure

The bone is cut surgically, and an external or internal fixation device is attached to gradually separate the bone segments.

3
Distraction Phase

Over several weeks or months, the fixator is adjusted to gradually stretch the bone and stimulate new bone formation.

4
Consolidation Phase

After achieving the desired length, the bone segments consolidate and heal.

5
Fixator Removal

Once the bone has healed, the external fixator device is removed, and rehabilitation begins.

Benefits of
Surgery

Height increase surgeries can add several inches to a person's height, improving self-esteem and quality of life. These surgeries can correct limb length discrepancies or angular deformities, enhancing overall appearance and function. Limb lengthening procedures minimize soft tissue trauma compared to traditional techniques, reducing the risk of complications and promoting faster recovery.

Device Maintenance

Patients must follow instructions for cleaning and maintaining the external fixator device.

Physical Therapy

Rehabilitation focuses on gradually increasing weight-bearing and restoring function in the lengthened limb.

Monitoring

Regular follow-up appointments with the orthopedic team are necessary to monitor bone healing progress and adjust treatment as needed.
