RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – A new aesthetic procedure developed in the United States pledges to add a few extra centimeters to short men. The promising technique was created by the LimbPlastX Institute in Las Vegas and has been conquering the Internet after disclosing some of the results obtained by its patients.
According to one of the clinic’s managers, Kevin Debiparshad, in the past year alone 30 men have undergone the aesthetic procedure, which costs approximately US$75,000.
The technique is known to be less invasive, compared to others, in which the legs are broken so that doctors can add a few centimeters to patients. However, the new surgery includes the insertion of pieces extracted from the femoral or tibial bones into the hollow portion of the leg bones, by means of a fixed device with screws that help to achieve the ideal posture.
Debiparshad further points out that the procedure that lasts about an hour does not have immediate results: they gradually appear throughout the year following the surgery. The promise is that the increase in height may be as much as 15 centimeters.
