aestheticallylong’s Dr. Betz Experience

Greetings on the forum. Have you consulted with your physician to determine if your growth plate has sealed? It is likely that you are still experiencing growth.

Indeed, I have had a height of 171cm since the age of 16.

If someone could provide input on Dr. Guichet as well, I would appreciate hearing about him, as I am considering researching him too since his videos seem less like a sales pitch compared to both Betz and Paley.

Stryde will require time. No updates have been provided. How can you anticipate FDA clearance for limb lengthening in 2023? Why are you confident it will be an effective nail? Do you desire to be the initial patient to utilize it? Many individuals have voiced grievances regarding a certain German doctor abandoning patients post-surgery. Nonetheless, many have also achieved positive results. Guichet used to enjoy a good reputation until a patient shared her story. You must have come across that, right? It is an exceedingly challenging decision. Safe and gradual.

Update:

I will have my consultation with Betz soon, so if anyone has inquiries, feel free to inform me, and I can inquire. My surgery date is set for June, and honestly, I am experiencing significant relief because I have been anticipating this for a lengthy period. Just knowing that this is happening has already started to alleviate the dysmorphia. There is some fear present now that it is no longer just a concept but a concrete reality that I will have a quite leisurely summer. I am maintaining my daily stretching routine, and I have observed noticeable enhancements in my hamstring flexibility. Additionally, I am engaging in workouts targeting my glutes and legs with weights 2-3 times per week. Due to my remarkably rapid muscle growth, there has been substantial hypertrophy over the past month. My objective is to have them in a well above-average condition before the surgery date.

My interactions with Betz’s team have been excellent thus far; they mentioned that ITB release is now an option for anyone who desires it, and I will certainly opt for this opportunity.

I am curious if any experienced individuals have felt a sense of urgency in the months leading up to the surgery. Today, I briefly felt a semblance of what life was like before the dysmorphia – a soothing presence and a childlike curiosity towards the present task. There are admirable individuals on this platform who, despite encountering what I would describe as a debilitating mental disorder, have accomplished EXCEPTIONAL feats. I can only envision the pace of life and the increase in productivity once September arrives, and I have finished the limb lengthening process.

Perhaps I am idealizing this unconventional procedure. I do not know. I have always viewed it as the final hurdle before entering the realm of adulthood. Nevertheless, I am looking forward to witnessing the outcomes.

Your insights into my aforementioned queries would be highly appreciated.

The process is quite challenging, but few individuals feel remorse afterward. Being young is fortunate for you.
It will be tough as each day passes by.

My case is quite comparable to yours in every way. I sent you a direct message.

I had surgery with Betz in November 2021 and achieved 7.2cm. Now I’ve been consolidating for a little over 1 month. My bone growth is good, and I’m physically getting stronger and more flexible each day.

To answer your questions:

Thanks for your reply, mate. Did you have it at the clinic in Freiburg or Saarbrucken? I have an appointment in Saarbrucken, but I believe he usually practices in Freiburg. They offered me the choice to go to Freiburg, but it would be a week later.

I also heard Guichet mention that it is likely Precise will not make a return.

Can anyone provide their experience with the Betzbone?
