Due to the technical advancements lot of good implants are available now in India about the limb lengthening surgery. In initial days and now in many centers limb lengthening surgery is done by the Ilizarov. Ilizarov is a kind of external fixator  which is fixed of the thigh bone or the shin bone tibia and the patient has to increase the length of the Ilizarov by the bolts everyday. So it is quite cumbersome, it is very difficult to manage & there are chances of infection and obviously there is a big cosmetic loss because there is very big external fixator applied over the thigh but due to the technical advancements we have intramedullary limb lengthening system in India as well. This system has a intramedullary nail which is surgically put into the bone either thigh bone femur or shin bone tibia and with the help of one external device which has magnet can increase the height of the limb everyday. So its after the surgery is very simple the patient has to just press a button and the length of the limb increase by some amount.

Nobody can tell that you have undergone a surgery, there is a negligible chances of infection and we will increase the height of your bone at least by 6.5 cm. So if you think that you want to increase the height, you have some kind of deformity in your lower limb in which one leg is shorten then the another one because of previous infection or fracture or by birth than we can do this surgery and we will be increase your height up to 6.5 cm without any use if external fixator with the precise to intramedullary nail which function on the basis of very rare earth magnets.

If the patient is very affordable, internal lengthening can be done with a magnetic device which is excellent for femoral lengthening. No second surgery will be needed.
