Thanks to a new cosmetic procedure, short kings can add a couple of inches to their height—and the surgery has been compared to a Brazilian butt lift (BBL)!
According to Penn Medicine, the limb-lengthening procedure is accomplished by inserting a “magnetic lengthening rod and pins” into the thigh bones to allow for “controlled lengthening over a period of time.”
As a result, participants can add a few inches to their overall height by the end of the process, which includes using an external remote for the rods. We should also add that physical therapy is required during the post-op phase, and participants must work on “gait training and leg strengthening throughout the lengthening process.”
In other words, while this procedure allows people to grow a little taller, they definitely have to put in work during recovery!
