Brief Answer:
Not possible.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome To HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney.
I understand your concern.
I am very sorry to say that it is actual not possible to reduce the height as the height is due to increase in length of bones. This is practically not feasible to cut the bones and reduce the height.
So, this not possible even in long term Also. I know I am harsh. But my friend I don't want to misguide you.
An important concern here is to rule out any endocrinal problem that you might be having that has caused you this long stature. Most common being Acromegaly.
Do you have any diabetes?
Any long hand and fingers?
Big jaw?
Big nose?
Hoarse voice?
Revert with these details.
As far as your question is concerned , my dear trust me there is no safe way to reduce the height.
God bless you.
Stay Healthy.
