How realistic is 5 inches in two segments?
« on: December 29, 2020, 11:50:05 PM »

Hey everyone I plan on getting 8cm stryde femurs done when I graduate college and then after a few years get 5cm tibias done with whatever the safest method for tibias is at the time. I am starting at 165cm(5'5) and hopefully ending at 178cm(5'10). Is getting 5 inches a realistic goal without sacrificing too much of my mobility or is it dangerous. Are many people able to achieve this much length safely?

You're thinking too much. saving up money first then get femur surgery, you will get your answer. Only your body can answer your questions. LL is high-risk surgery. Please read Dr.Paley and Dr. Robert Rozbruch's research papers. Diaries are not real data.

You can't judge if you can get taller by that much just by imagination.
The safest lengthening observation method is to let your body truly tell you how you'll be feeling like per mm.
The theory that the longer your bone is,the more you can lengthen ain't true all the time and I myself dunno how those doctors have reasoned it.

I mean it makes sense, bone grows, soft tissues just get stretched. And ig that would be the problem with huge lengthenings, I also want to do 5/6 inches and im working on my mobility and stretching as much as possible

I absolutely quote what you said. In the forum there's is far too much disinformation, I found the papers you mentioned very useful.
Take a look to Nuvasive papers too for more useful informations
