Hello dear, welcome to healthcare magic forum.
Biologically speaking, it is not possible to increase our age at this age. By this time, the epiphyses would have already fused with the long bones,and linear bone growth is not possible after that.Any advertising in this regard should be taken as fake.
You need not over concern about your height.Your height lies in the low normal range,and not too short.
Thank you
