Your intramedullary nails remain in your bone for 1.5–2 years to allow new bone to form around them. Removal afterward is entirely optional — you can keep them for life if you prefer.
Is LON Right for You?
LON involves more visible hardware during the lengthening phase compared to fully internal systems like PRECICE or FITBONE, since it uses a temporary external fixator alongside the internal nail. In exchange, it's significantly more affordable and remains the most-performed limb lengthening method in the world.
If comfort and discretion during recovery matter more to you than upfront cost, take a look at our PRECICE or FITBONE packages instead.
