Can surgery make you get taller?

Surgery can potentially increase height through procedures like limb lengthening, where the bones in the legs are gradually lengthened using surgical techniques and devices. However, this type of surgery is complex, involves significant recovery time, and carries risks of complications. It is not commonly performed and is typically reserved for specific medical conditions rather than for cosmetic height enhancement. Overall, while surgery can make you taller, it is not a straightforward or widely recommended solution.
