dear doctors..
my problem is that i have a short stature which is about 169 cm and a small face that makes me appear younger than my real age. i have tried to appear normal in my behavior but really it hurts me.lately i have heard about ilizarov technique that helps to elongate the legs up to 10 cm. now i want you to tell me about the surgery ,the time required to establish 5 cm elongation for example, its complications , prognosis in percent and the costs per each leg.
regarding my small face i dont know actually what to do.is there any type of surgery that deals with such a problem i mean face enlargment___?????
