A Georgia man paid $81K for a painful limb-lengthening surgery after a crush rejected him for being too short.
Dynzell Sigers is feeling ‘like a new man’ after spending more than $80,000 on a limb lengthening surgery to become half a foot taller.
‘I was always a very shy and reserved child and was always afraid to be myself for fear of being judged or not accepted… And in my teens, I was once rejected by a girl I had a huge crush on. Although she found me attractive, her reasoning was that I was too short and too young for her.’
Sigers now stands at 6 feet tall, documenting the gradual growth throughout his recovery on TikTok. In several videos, he’s seen going through intense physical therapy to rebuild his leg muscles and improve mobility.
The “lengthening over nail” process is described online as having a “fixator” attached to the bone through the skin with a “screw” inside the bone. Then the fixator is turned every six hours so the leg is “gently lengthened”.
