In an interview with Cyborg4life, he mentioned that he aims to fulfill the patient’s desired height during limb lengthening procedures. However, he is cautious not to allow overlengthening and only occasionally exceeds 8 cm using the g-nail, especially for patients who already have a tall starting height.
On the other hand, Betz is known for lengthening many patients well beyond the safety standard of 8 cm. One patient even underwent a 12.3 cm lengthening on their femurs, significantly raising the risk of complications. It is advisable to limit the lengthening to 8 cm if choosing Betz for the procedure. Only Betz and LivelifeTaller seem to consider this approach acceptable, according to the interview.
