Looks great. And actually when you look at men or women above average their femurs are usually very long compared to their Tibias, many tall people aren’t proportional, their legs are often too long for their body or even sometimes their torsos.

In your case I think it looks good.

Is it exactly 8 cm? It looks very good. At least, in this photo.

It kinda puts into perspective how small 8cm actually is in terms of height. Despite moving from the 5th percentile to the 40th

Who are you planning on getting the surgery with?

The stryde nail has dramatically increased the number of people undergoing this surgery it seems.

I am consulting with Giotakis in a little over a week now and will probably do the procedure end of December.
