Why do I need lengthening surgery?
Elongation is a surgical procedure performed for medical and cosmetic purposes. Medical lengthening surgery is usually performed for conditions such as unequal leg lengths, deformities or dwarfism, and can be performed at any age starting from preschool. On the other hand, what is important in cosmetic lengthening is the completeness of the patient’s bone development. The completeness of bone growth can be determined radiologically.
