EKO HOT BLOG reports that a man from the United States has undergone a surgery to increase his height in an attempt to boost his self-confidence and woo women.
Moses Gibson had suffered from insecurities about his height since he was 15 years old and had trouble talking to women due to his self-doubt after witnessing other boys his age go through growth spurts that he did not.
Gibson tried various methods to grow taller, including medications and even contacting a spiritual healer online. However, when all other options failed, he decided to have surgery to increase his height. The results of the surgery were astounding as doctors added five inches to his height.
Speaking about his struggle with his height, Gibson said, “I’ve struggled with my height. Even when I was in high school, I was always unhappy with my height. When I was like 15, I realized most of my peers were taller than me. It started getting to me gradually.”
After learning about a procedure that could lengthen his legs, Gibson began working extra hours to save up enough money for the surgery during college. After working as a software engineer during the day and an Uber driver at night for three years, he underwent surgery to add three inches to his height in 2016. However, seven years later, he has had a second round of surgery and is using a height-lengthening device.
During the surgery, doctors broke Gibson’s tibia and fibula bones and inserted magnetic, limb-lengthening nails into them. He now needs to use a height-lengthening device three times a day, pulling the cut bones apart one millimetre at a time. The entire process can take up to a year to complete, but Gibson is determined to increase his height and boost his confidence.
The surgery has sparked a debate among medical professionals and the public about the ethics of height-lengthening surgery. While some argue that the surgery is a personal choice, others are concerned about the risks and potential complications of the procedure.
Regardless of the debate, Gibson is happy with his decision and hopes that his increased height will help him feel more confident and attractive to women.
