Is It Possible To Increase Height After 35 Years Of Age?

Only surgical correction can help.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Height of an individual is determined by Genetics, Environmental & Nutritional factors and Hormonal factors (most important the Growth Hormone secreted by pituitary gland in brain)
An individual stops growing in height after the fusion of the Epiphyses of the long bones, which occurs by the age of 18-20 yrs in females.
As you are already 35 years old, there is a less chance of achieving your dream height naturally.
Increase in height is possible only through surgical methods.
Surgical correction requires time and it may take around 6 months to 9 months to complete whole process. It may involve 2 to 3 surgical steps.
You can also consult at my hospital for further details.
One more thing, kindly avoid getting influenced by any advertisement or over the counter medication which claim to boost your growth hormone & increase height. It may be harmful.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
