The treatment journey
From the first consultation to full recovery, we are with you at every step.
How the journey unfolds
- 01Consultation and assessmentYour suitability is assessed from your photos and x-rays, and the most suitable method is chosen. For international patients this step is usually done online.
- 02Planning and travelThe surgery date, accommodation and airport transfer are arranged.
- 03Surgery and hospital stayThe operation takes place at the partner hospital, with close observation in the first days.
- 04Distraction (lengthening)The bone is lengthened by about 1 mm per day, with regular x-rays to monitor progress.
- 05PhysiotherapyWith physiotherapists, muscle and joint flexibility is preserved and walking is restored.
- 06Consolidation and follow-upFollow-up continues until the new bone hardens and you fully return to daily life.
The total length of the process depends on the chosen method, the targeted length and the person's rate of healing.
