Of surgery is done once so. I might as well maximize the results. I started walkinh 5 days post surgery and right after the removal of the 📍 (they insert it at the back of your foot)

Is there a way to avoid that pain the First week?

Do you think your tibias are very long now?

Nah, looks very good. Obviously they real slim and long due the loss of muscle for no movement. But when things will settle. Will Look dope

From 4,5 to 5 Cm above, u must do it cuz the tendon won't stretch, causing pain, cuz the muscle will start pulling

I did also 9 cm and had a similar experience. I wrote you in private to discuss further about that.
When I decided to go for ATL I was not at +6 cm but +7 cm, I was wrong, but I checked the lengthening in the X-ray now.

Btw, Catagni told me you will lose around 0.5 cm, not 10%, where did you take it? If you are right, I regret I didn't do 0.5 cm more before stop lengthening
