3cm means that someone thinks that LL is a game and can easily do it to add just a few cms that noone will notice. For sure he can't understand the risks otherwise he wouldn't mess with that for such a tiny increase.
No sane person would do such an extreme surgery for anything less than 5cm.
but you still are not understanding the point.
5 cm to someone that is 170 cm might give him the same level of happiness
that
3 cm can give to someone who is 179 cm
So me doing only 3 cm does not mean I am insane, and you are sane
different starting heights, with different goals in mind, different reasons for doing the surgery. It is relative to the person who is doing the surgery. I understand the risks more than 99% of you on here after reading some diaries and posts. I've actually done my own research on this topic, and have not relied on anything this forum posts and I am a critic of everything on here. I use my own resources. Most people come on here and read this forum and decide which surgeons to choose, how much to lengthen, which method to use for highest safety. The fact that I am not trusting any of the postings on here (although most are true) and using my own knowledge and research alone shows that I am serious about this surgery and am not taking it lightly.
So don't judge me for lengthening how much I want to lengthen.
Don't judge me because of my starting heigh.
Everybody has a different story, and it will be best if you just focus on yours.
Furthermore, that wasn't the reason I posted this thread. Everybody has their own demons they are fighting, so stop using your own insecurities of height to dissuade people of average height from doing this surgery.
Hope you have a great day.
