Great video! Keep them coming
This is an amazing explanation, tnx!!
Hey Vic! Apreciate your work on keeping everyone informed on this topic! I know a little over a year back you did a video about the near future of this and other methods to increase height. I was wandering if there were any updates in the field that may lead to a 2023 version of this type of video in the near future? In any case keep up the great work!

Betzbone for the win!
At this point I hope the price will go down especially LON method after these new technology come involved especially if the stryde come back in the near future This will be cost down to precies 2.2 and the LON method
Do you know about MTN nail from Iran ? Dr. Nader uses this and he said weight bearing capacity is 50kg each and it’s made of titanium. Thank you in advance
So it will be much easier for me to do this surgery I really want to do it but really hope for the cost go down
I prefer betzbone because of cost, weight bearing, I’m gonna travel oversea and back home for therapy period , so the weight bearing gives me more security. Also, I need not pay 30-40k dollar for deposit of borrowing the precice magnet device back home to use and might risk damaging it during travel by flight delivery. Betzbone is more preferable for my case.
Thanks man, really helpful video! Besides the risks of hgh in general, do you know if there’s a reason why it wouldn’t “help” the process? I wouldn’t do it, but the question randomly popped into my head, and now I’m curious.

@@Cyborg4Life I hope it's still not too late for what I'm gonna request lol Can you include a clip about implications of lengthening for patients with terrible ankle mobility/dorsiflexion and if it's; A)possible for them to lengthen tibia B) if yes, are they generally limited and unable to achieve higher lengths? Also the claims of the general girth of lower leg increasing, especially above ankle region. For me the width and girth of lower leg is more important as I'm walking on sticks
Another great video Vic Might be an idea for a video, since the tibia is more risky with less benefits.. But couldn't find any info on specific stresses for that area post procedure. Namely, the torque with the machine abtly named "leg extension" weight exercise. Also, martial arts swing kicking exercises Are these two dangerous for a tibia extension patient risking breaking? For the first year after surgery, or even forever? Thanks again for your wisdom

Hey Victor 2 questions, 1) when choosing between Betzbone and G-Nail you should also take the surgeon into account (Dr. Axel Becker and Dr.Giotikas) and what I´ve heard is that Giotikas is by far a more experienced and overall better surgeon, than Becker whos a Rookie in the field of LL. So keeping that in mind, would you still choose Betzbone over G-Nail? 2) Do you think that Stryde will make its return this year or at the latest in the beginning of 2024, or are we looking at late 2024, 2025 or even 2026, or never?.

1) Putting a nail in is not difficult. It's more so after lengthening has begun to watch out for avoidable complications. 2) This fall most likely for a few select LL clinics in US. Then more widespread next year and thereafter

a precice nail that lengthens to 10cm or plus would be the dream. Lot of ppl choosing LON or betz because they can lengthen femur more than 8cm and do so successfully. I frequently hear 10, 10.5, 11 from past patients with great outcomes and 0 issues.
