Hello
Usually all the bones developed and fusion take place by 19 years ( in all ) .
After this age, no medicine is available ( scientifically proved ) which can enhance the bone .
So first of all I want to tell you that don't entrap in the net of false claims and ads .
Now only an option is bone grafting i.e. surgery .
The cost depend on the many factors like , city , hospital reputation , surgeon experience and an individuals .
So according to your location contact the hospital and get the opinion of orthopedic surgeon.
This is very dangerous and I never recommend this to my patient.
Hope this will be useful for you.
I find this answer helpful
