Question 31: 🦴 What Is the BETZBONE® Made Of? 🦴

The BETZBONE® is crafted from a high-strength, anti-corrosion titanium alloy. This advanced material is biocompatible, meaning it integrates safely with the body, while also being lightweight and extremely durable. Unlike other nails, it’s designed to resist rust and wear over time, ensuring stability and safety throughout the entire lengthening process.

Question 30: How will doctors monitor bone healing and alignment during the lengthening and consolidation phases?

This careful follow-up is a key part of achieving excellent results with the BETZBONE® system.

Question 29: Who Is an Ideal Candidate for Limb Lengthening? 👱🏻‍♂️👨🏽👩🏼‍🦱👩🏼‍🦳👩🏽‍🦱

The ideal candidate is generally in good overall health, with no medical conditions that could affect bone healing. Most patients are between 18 and 55 years old, although suitability is always determined individually. A positive mindset, realistic expectations, and commitment to the recovery process are just as important as physical health. During your consultation, Dr. Becker and his team will carefully assess your medical history, goals, and lifestyle to ensure the procedure is safe and effective for you

Question 28: Will I Need More Than One Surgery for Lengthening? ✨🦴

In most cases, one surgery is all that’s needed to achieve your desired lengthening goals for a single bone segment, such as the femur or tibia. Later, a second small procedure to remove the BETZBONE® implant is suggested for long-term comfort, but it’s not mandatory. If you wish to lengthen both segments to add more height at a later stage, another lengthening surgery can be performed after full recovery. Every treatment plan is tailored to your goals, health, and safe limits.

Question 26: Will I Need Special Shoes or Clothing After Gaining Height? 👖👟

Patients don’t need any special shoes or clothing after limb lengthening. Your proportions remain natural, and regular clothes typically fit just as before, just in a longer size! Some enjoy updating their wardrobe to reflect their new height, but no medical adjustments are necessary.

Question 25: What will I have to do and feel during the lengthening process?

During the lengthening phase, you will gradually increase your height by turning the BETZBONE® nail's small mechanism each day, typically by around 1 mm. This controlled stretching is carried out at home under the close guidance of our team.

You may experience some tightness or discomfort as your muscles, nerves and skin slowly adapt, but this is usually manageable with light medication and daily mobility exercises. It is important to stay active and follow your physical therapy plan to keep your joints flexible and support your progress safely.

With dedication and the right support, the process will become easier each week.
