First, I am a very short guy. I am not even 160cm tall so I am planning to lengthen twice, 5cm tibia plus 7cm femur for a total of 12cm lengthening. The question is which one should I do first?
My plan is to do LON tibia for 5cm first, first because its cheaper and secondly I want the bigger external scars to become minimal once I am at my final height. I am now considering G-Nail and precice for femurs due to the issue with stryde.

- Should I choose G-Nail with Giotikas or Betz? Or is Precice the better option for femurs right now?
- Should I continue with the plan to do tibia lengthening first or should I do femurs first?
- Would winter be a bad time to do it if I decide to go to Germany for the lengthening? Does weather/temperature affect lengthening in any way?
- I think I have LLD, I used to wear a 1cm lift - left shoe to help with the back pain caused by LLD. I dont know if the LLD is caused by shorter femur or tibia though. Do you think this discrepancy should be a factor in choosing which procedure to do first?

Thanks

If for body proportions,you can choose to do

lengthening on the shorter

part at first.

If for quickier recovery,you can choose tibias at first and femurs will cost

you more Euros.So you can enjoy taller life at first after tibia

lengthening.

But I don't how the weather is gonna be cuz I haven't

ever paid a visit

there yet.

Also G-nail has been published just recently but Betz is

more experienced than G-nail since it has been

published for several years.

Choosing G-nails will render u into a Guinea pig.

Thanks. I thought G-nail is the same as Betz nail, just called differently by Giotikas.
