This company lied , I contracted golden staphylococcus and I had to have emergency surgery back in my country . I was told by Sedat that when I come back to fix my leg it will be withbout charge. But Now the operations manager Mesud is saying I have to pay the full price again because because another doctor shorten my leg. I have all the medical evidence showing the metal ware was the reason for the infection. I will be taking legal action now .

Have nothing but great things to say about LiveLifeTaller. Very welcoming and warm environment. This by no means are easy surgeries to accomplish. So it’s helpful to have a supportive team behind you. Dr. Halil is an amazing surgeon, much love and highly recommend.

I am very happy with the results I got. I have always had a complex about being short and I always looked for an alternative to gain a few centimeters in height, but I never found anything that could help until I found Live Life Taller through Google. I researched a lot about Live Life Taller and others that could also perform surgery to lengthen the lower limbs, but it was Live Life Taller that caught my attention because they follow the patients from the beginning to the end of the treatment. I would never have undergone this surgery if there was not a clinic like Live Life Taller, which in addition to having a doctor with total experience and a great professional, also has a team of nurses who visit the patients twice a day. They also have housekeepers who take the trash out of the rooms every day and clean the rooms twice a week. They also offer physiotherapy 6 times a week with great professionals. They also have a cafeteria and a restaurant. So you don't have to worry about a thing. Just follow the instructions to achieve your goal and have a good recovery. I just have to thank the entire Live Life Taller team. Without them, I believe it would not be possible for me to reach 14.5 cm in 3 months and without having any complications. Thank you very much to everyone at Live Life Taller for participating in my journey and making my dream come true.

I had a very disappointing and painful experience with Dr. Halil Buldu in Turkey. After my surgery, I faced many complications, including non union on femur bone which lead to more complicated surgery and more cost, also i had issues in precise nail not working properly, which lead to other surgery to change the nail Just one month after the initial surgery, I had to undergo another operation to fix the problem. Unfortunately, I later had to go through a third surgery to replace the nail.

What made the situation even worse was the lack of proper follow-up and care from the doctor. I felt neglected throughout the process, and the complications could have been minimized with better medical attention. This experience caused me a lot of physical pain, emotional distress, and financial loss.

I would not recommend this doctor to anyone looking for a safe and professional medical experience. Be very careful when choosing your surgeon, as proper care and follow-up are just as important as the surgery itself.

Finally, one of my dreams came true because of Live Life Taller. They took care of me from Day one to last day untill I get to the airport with the wheel chair service.Thanks to Dr. Halil, Sedat and the whole teams of LLT. I gained 13.5 cm with quadrilateral hybrid in 3 months. Dr. Halil is the best doctor I have ever seen in limb lengthening, I can even walk without assistance within 2 week after the nails exchange and fixator removal. I’m grateful and thankful to live life taller for full filling my dream

I had surgery on the femur LON a while ago, and had a great experience at LLT, the people who worked there were incredibly nice people, who worked hard. I did not experience the surgery as painful; I had the pain when I came from about 2.5 cm in the lengthening process, but that is muscle and nerve pain. When I got home, I had a quick recovery in one foot, but the other I could not build strength in, and the bone healing was poor, which meant that I also walked poorly. Unfortunately, I postponed this problem for too long, my physiotherapist at LLT, Halil and Sedat asked me to come down to have the nail changed, but the physiotherapist here at home thought this was just nonsense. And for a while I listened to him. But eventually I went down and changed the nail. And the day after the surgery I walked normally, and everything has worked out. I have had great experiences with LLT and many good memories. And I would do this again, the feeling of having become taller is indescribable, but it is fantastic. For me they all from the doctor, physiotherapists, kitchen staff, nurses, drivers and others who worked there were always nice and very helpful. If you want to get taller I recommend LLT!

I was severely depressed with my height for a long time and livelifetaller helped me to finally achieve my dream of getting taller. What I liked the most about LLT is their facility. They have everything under one roof. This is something which is not provided by other institutions. Nurses visit patients daily and patients have regular physiotherapy sessions within the facility where they reside during the process.
I did quadrilateral limb lengthening surgery and it was a long and painful process. I made a lot of friends within the facility and hanging out with them in the lobby and gym helped me forget the pain. I would like to thank Sedat for his efforts in managing this place and quick response whenever they needed him for something. Limb lengthening is a serious procedure with a high risk of complications. So, it is important to closely monitor the process especially during the lengthening period. Regular visits from nurses, x-rays every 2 weeks and physiotherapy sessions provided by LLT helped me stay under their radar and manage the pain. I would also like to appreciate the security guards of the facility. They go above and beyond whenever the patients need any help with something such as going to the bathroom, getting in and out of cabs and even food delivery. Overall, I had a great experience. Now I am working towards my recovery and I hope everything goes well for me and all the patients.

I am very happy with Livelifetaller, they were very professional and knowledgeable. My surgery was also successful thanks to Dr Halil and the team. The process to getting taller was incredible difficult and painful, I did not enjoy it at all however the Livelifetaller team including the physio, nurses and everyone made it better. I was able to achieve my goal of getting taller.

So many memories at LLT.
I would say that I really missed the staff. They are the reason why I was able to accomplish this journey.

We all have a dream to be taller, but no pain no gain. It’s a scary surgery and it’s so complex.

The facility has everything you need to accomplish your goal. Food, therapy, medical team, gym, recreational areas, security etc..

I’m 5 months back at home. Recovering ❤️‍🩹 well and small victories every day.

I stay in full contact with the staff while I recover at home. They really care.

Hello to everyone at Live Life Taller.. I can't believe it's been almost a year since my initial surgery. First of all I would like to thank Sedat, Dr. Halil Buldu, the medical team, physiotherapy team, kitchen personnel,
The video & media team, cleaning team as well as security team. Honestly, I was not expecting so much care and attention from everyone there at the Live Life Taller Center. But, that is exactly what I received from everyone! Sedat, does a wonderful job in hiring all this people that make up this great team that's there to help you every step of the way through your journey. My name is Carlos 56 years old and i am a Quadrilateral Hybrid patient. I chose this type of procedure in order to be able to grow as much as possible in a short period of time. My starting height was 177.6cm, my goal was 15cm and I was able to reach 12cm for a final height of 189.6cm. The only complication that I had towards the end of my limb lengthening process was a mild case of bailarina. Overall, it was not an easy process and it was painful at times. But, being on the athletic side most of my life i was able to work through it. The process does require that you get yourself ready for it as you will need to be mentally, physically and emotionally strong! Due, to my height and weight I am currently still going through my recovery. I am able to walking and go up and down stairs unassisted. My bone healing is almost done and soon will be coming back to the Live Life Taller Center for my removal surgery. Honestly, I do recommend this place to anyone looking to do their limb lengthening surgery. This place just has it all is there to back you up in the event that you have any complications. Experience is king and they don't run away.... They are there to help you every step of the way through your journey.....

Dr. Halil did an excellent job, and the staff was incredibly supportive. I also made some great friends along the way. Of course, this is a very serious surgery—it’s a journey with ups and downs. Your body will react in different ways, and you’ll have to adjust, but I trusted Dr. Halil throughout the process.

One thing I really appreciated was Sedat’s leadership. He’s been through this not once, not twice, but three times—so he truly understands what it’s like to be a patient. People can try to guess how you feel, but no one really knows except those who have been through it themselves, and Sedat is living proof of that.

Overall, I had a great experience. They helped make my dream a reality, but it was definitely a challenge. You have to stay positive and make good decisions while you're there—it’s a real journey, and a serious one. The center, the people I met, and my friends all played a big role in supporting me before, during, and after the process.

We each had our own unique journey, but it was reassuring to be surrounded by others who were just as committed and willing to trust the process. There were highs and lows—just like anything in life—but for me, it was worth it. I’m glad I chose LLT.

Before the surgery: My research for LL surgery led me to LLT in Turkey. The price point was better compared to doing the surgery in the US/Canada/Europe. LLT specialized in LL surgery and appeared to do more surgeries than anyone else (more experience). The LLT rehab centre appeared well organized to provide the needed support during the lengthening phase of the process. Honestly, LLT was the best deal out there.

Surgery and lengthening: My two surgeries, inserting nail and fixator, and fixator removal went well. I felt reassured and in good hands, even though there is always a surgery risk of course. The LLT rehab centre experience during lengthening was amazing. Between the physiotherapy team, medical team, nutritionist, catering services, cleaning services, gym and the community of other patients undergoing LL at the centre, you truly have all the support you need for the lengthening process. I spent 4 months at the centre to lengthen 10+ cm on femur with LON. I had complication scares with skin damage and infection but these were dealt with.

Post lengthening and recovery: I am a lot taller now after 10+ cm and I will truly enjoy my new height when I have made a full recovery. Everybody’s response to surgery and their recovery times are different. LL is a major surgery and recovery typically takes significant time and effort. Complications can also arise at this stage. For example, I am currently working hard to fix an unusually narrow knee range of motion several weeks into post lengthening recovery.

Will I do LL with LLT again? Absolutely, I am coming back for tibia lengthening when I am able to! While surgery risk and risk of complications will always be there for any LL procedure, in my experience LLT treated me with care and professionalism. There is definitely room for improvement at LLT, and during my time there I saw LLT management was trying to make improvements. I hope this effort continues.

Best of luck to you in your LL journey. Cheers

I just finished my quadrilateral limb lengthening at Live life taller. I could not imagine doing this procedure anywhere else. You have everything under 1 roof. You are taken care of 24/7. You get your own private room with bathroom and kitchenette. You get physiotherapy in-house everyday, you have the medical team at your fingertips. Medical team also changes your bandages every couple of days. Also you get the best Orthopedic Surgeon in the business. So if anyone out there is looking for cosmetic limb lengthening, I highly recommend Live Life Taller. Remember, Facility Facility Facility. Live Life Taller has the all in full facilities to take care of you the entire time you are there.

Throughout the entire process, Dr. Halil and the founder of the institution, Sedat, were by my side in every aspect. I am incredibly proud that such a service exists in Turkey. Everyone, including the nurses, physiotherapists, chefs, cleaners, security staff, and social media team, goes above and beyond to ensure you feel as happy and comfortable as possible. I stayed there for three months, and when I left, I realized that I actually missed it. Sending my best regards to everyone!

I had done ll for my femur in 2022 and tibia with precice in 2023. while I was staying at llt, they were very helpful and affectionate.
I remember when I was taking physical therapy, all of them were giving me that several times. I was able to recover faster and can jog. I thankful for them. all the staff are friendly and wonderful. they're like my family

※I couldn't choose 2022 and 2023 for date of experience.

Date of experience: February 29, 2024

I did quadrilateral Precice at LLT and gained 6 inches. Mobility/recovery have been going well and no one would be able to tell that I even had surgery. Impact on my life has been transformational in basically every way. Much more self-esteem now. Dr Halil is stellar and does tons of these cases. Probably the most experienced guy in the world to be honest. Sedat (the business owner) is extremely personable and makes big efforts to connect with you as the patient. The clinic overall is a 10/10 for social / psychologic aspect while you're going through the lengthening process because you can meet other patients and chat about your experiences / make friends. In other words, you're not alone going through the process and never feel isolated. If you choose to stay alone in your room you can do that, but many patients tend to interact and you're always kept in good spirits at LLT. It took me 4 months to lengthen 6 inches, then I spent another 2 months there doing extra physio. I did over 230 physio sessions during my time there (something like 2-3 per day at times), but I had big goals I wanted to reach. Any of my friends who are considering lengthening, I would recommend LLT. Very happy with my experience.

I have made my surgery 3 months ago in LLT, i chose quadrilateral precise method and i had a very good lengthening process physiotherapist team and medical team all are dedicated and they helped me alot thankfully my recovery process started and its going very well

Date of experience: November 08, 2024

I had my surgery and treatment done here a year and a half ago (I can not mark the exact date in this platform), and had a great experience. They have an impressive coordination and multidisciplinary approach where the nutritionist, physiotherapist, nurses and doctor were perfectly coordinated and supported me on everything. I am very thankful to the whole team, that facilitated this challenging experience.

Limb lengthening surgery is not for everyone, and I always advise people to consider it only if they are consistently bothered by their stature and cannot stop thinking about it.
Was the process easy? Not at all.
Was it doable? Yes, it was.
Is there room for improvement?
There is always room for improvement, and dealing with different patients from various countries, each with their own expectations and perspectives, can be challenging at times.
Is it worth it, and would I do it again if I could go back?
At my new height, it probably doesn’t make sense for me to go through all of this again. But at my old height, yes, 100%. It was worth it for me, and if I had the chance to go back, I would do it again. However, you should be clear about why you are doing it before you make your decision.
