Aaron Trinh was 5'6", and by college, his height had become a daily insecurity he could no longer ignore.
So he made a decision most people would never consider: he underwent bilateral femur lengthening and gained 7.6 cm (3 inches).
Just 6.5 months later, Aaron visited me with no daily pain, near-normal mobility, and a completely different relationship with his height.
