Hello everyone. This is my first post here, I hope I get some value out of it. My current morning height is 178cm or 5'10 ft and I have a wingspan of 181cm (almost 6'0 ft).

My final plan is to get at 188 cm/6'2 before I am 28. I appreciate people telling me to not do it, but I will not get satisfied If i dont get at that height and Im determined to make it so i'ts pointless to try and convinve me otherwise.

I am almost 19 now and the biggest barrier standing in my way is cost. I've read some good things about dr. Aiming Peng and dr. Parihar but I dont think I'll go to Asia to get it both for logistics and comfort reasons.

So my plan is to go for external tibias with dr. Solomin and dr. Kulesh in Russia before I turn 23. I will get LATN or LON. I'd like if someone could inform me about the cost of each treatment and the advantages/disavtanes of both. LON/LATN is the best way to lengthen tibia right?



So after Im hopefully done with it, I want to get my femurs with precise 2 nail with dr Giotikas in Athens. The best would be to finish with that before 25 but my upper limit is 28. I'm rushing because I want to enjoy the best benefits of the new height during my most prime years, I guess that you understand me .

So overall 4cm with external LATN or LON tibias and 6cm with precise 2 femurs. Do you think this is a reasonable treatment plan regarding cost/planning/safety? If anyone knows the prices of LON or LATN with dr Solomon, Id benefit a lot if he could pm me, thank you.

*Sorry for my unorganized writing.
*Some people in anold forum advised me to not go for cross lateral and to lengthen each segments by themselves. Why is that?
*I hope I get some replies.

Start with Giotikas, you can get more cm in femur and safer.

You might turn out to be satisfied and not go for tibias later, who knows.

How are your proportions? Do you have a longish torso for your height?

As someone who stands at 6ft4, with the torso of someone who is 5ft10 and who has wanted to have leg shortening for a very long time, I would just counsel that excessiely long legs to torsoe size is not a strong look. It is very hard to appear broad and not lanky if you are 6ft2 plus if such a large proportion of your height is in your legs. Adding the very significant amount of 10cm, given you are already an average size might push you into that territory, and there's a possibility it could be too much height to add.

Just a thought from a totally opposite perspective!
