Are my legs too long for 7.5 cm increase by internals in tibias?

Am 161 and want to reach 169.

Have to link to imgur since i cant upload the file.

Im really not interested in being told that I shouldnt do it because my height is fine for a girl or anything like that.

If you want to do internals, why not femurs? With internal tibia lengthening you have pretty big risk of permament knee pain and you want to do 7,5cm on top of that.
Totally unrealistic.

Btw photo looks like it was made on the head level which gives false perception of your overall proportions.

Ehh, do i really need to explain again that people try to cheer up others?
You come to damn height increasing related forum and you expect no talks about it? Cmon.

If you have the money for internal then you might as well do femurs. They look fine.

By the looks of it you could do internal femurs and it would look fine

Want an honest opinion? Considering your body do femurs and dont get past 6cm. I do think you have a long torso compared to your legs, specially the femurs. 6cm more would be perfect.

Ive decided to do internal tibias for about 6.5cm height increase. Thanks! Originally I assumed my femurs could take the punishment but tibias seem safer somehow.

It's not safer, it's the other way around. Besides, if you do tibias, you'll be breaking 2 bones in each leg.

It's like saying:

I will go for 9cm external femurs rather than 10cm cuz it seems safer.

6.5 internal tibias is the upper limit a doctor would allow you, do 5-6, passing 6 can be dangerous.

It would look far more proportional if you did femurs rather than tibia's.

Btw, know you don't want to hear it, but I think you look better at your current height than the height you want to be.

Don't. You're on the petite side but you're not stocky or stubby looking. You have good proportions and any adjustments will make you look awkward

I say do it, you'll look fine. Your femurs are not that long so internal femurs are the way to go.
I say 6cm internal femurs first, if you want more the limit is 5cm external tibias (for safety)

PS.: Lady please, you mustn't stand on top of the toilet, ever! These things can break, I've heard about people who got injured. Please be careful! $:-\$

for femurs its seems better and safer

Penguinn · « **Reply #13 on:** October 03, 2016, 05:08:12 AM »

Your femurs already look short, if you do tibias it'll look absurd imo.

cole slaws · « **Reply #14 on:** October 04, 2016, 07:44:17 AM »

Haha I thought it would be a good idea since its the only long mirror I have.

I actually made a typo and mixed up the femurs and tibia bones when typing. I meant the thigh bone. Ive contacted Dr Jamal and he too suggested thighbones. He did say up to 7 cm might be okay but Id rather go for a consultation before making any decisions.

YourSpaceBoyfriend · « **Reply #15 on:** October 04, 2016, 12:00:41 PM »

I don't remember correctly but quite a few people had complications on an old forum with dr. Jamal.

Besides for his price you can get Precise 2 lengthening(as far as i know Jamal uses his own clicking nail).

From whom would I be able to get this surgery for? Im very new to this honestly.

In Tibia?

anyways best doctors for internal are Paley, Guichet, Betz and Rozbruch. You can find others but if you can afford on of those its will be better
