I have a downward curve (I've posted pics on here). I've heard STAGE is better than other procedures as it doesn't result in too much length loss.... does anyone know if Gelman or Lue perform STAGE?

hi
if you read the forum carefully you ll see you need an experienced surgeon to fix the curve. the technique is important but i think it is the experience of the surgeon.
lue is a safe bet ... i guess, based on the forum entries. good luck

Plication or sixteen dots has less risk, and if ok with losing some length-probably a good choice.
