About Us

Mission Statement:

 

"Achieve new heights by innovating, creating and pursuing the safest and most functional methods in the world for leg lengthening."

 

History and Commitment:

 

Limb Lengthening has been done succesfully since the invention of the Ilizarov method, over 60 years ago. However, this method was improved upon in 1987 when Dr. Jean-Marc Guichet invented the Albizzia nail. The process was further improved upon, when in 2009, Dr. Guichet introduced and patented the Guichet Nail.

 

The Guichet Nail and Method revolutionized leg lengthening as its stronger steel strucuture allowed for greater weight bearing activity almost immediately after the procedure, and it maximizes patient comfort due to the fact that it is customizable for size in patients with smaller bones. It is believed that the Guichet Method is the least painful of all the current methods of leg and limb lengthening as it is less invasive. 

 

Having led the research and innovation in leg lengthening, we are committed, as a Clinic and medical professionals, to finding innovative and latest technologies to help people achieve their goals. We understand our patient's needs and our objective is to get them positive results in the shortest amount of time. 

 

The state of the art clinic is located in at Centre Phocea, 14 Bd Gustave Ganay, 13009, Marseille, France. In addition, all services are now also offered at the Casa di Cura Columbusin at Via Buonarroti, 48 - 20145, in Milan, Italy.
