How much longer 169-170 - your suggestion
« on: October 03, 2023, 12:19:09 PM »

Hello,

I'm writing from Polish, so I apologize for my English.
I found a doctor who performs leg lengthening in my country, so I believe that the quality of the service will be high.
I have the amount ready and I want to start in the new year.

I always thought I was 172 cm tall, but it turned out that I was 169-170 cm.
I'm angry.

My hand span is 173 cm.
I read that the most attractive height is 182 cm and I would like to be like that, but I also don't want to risk my health and look like a dwarf on stilts.

I also care about proportions.
I was thinking about different combinations:
5 cm shin and 6.2 cm thigh (ratio 0.8 )
5.2 cm shin and 6.5 thigh (ratio 0.8 )
or 7 cm thigh and 5.5 cm shin.

I do not know.

The last option would make me 182 cm tall, but I'm also afraid that my arms will be too short for my legs.

I'm posting a photo - maybe it will make it easier for someone.
Please help, what do you think? What's the best thing to do?
What is your opinion? Thank you for every answer.

age: 29-30 years old

It looks like you have long tibia so if i were you i would have gone with Femur 8cm.
Lengthenig tibia is troublesome in most cases.

I always thought my shins were too short...
I will have to take an x-ray and see the tables and compare.

Thank you for your answer.
I invite you to discuss.

You have short tibias. If I were you I would do first 4-5cms on tibs and see afterwards if you wish for more

I also thought I had short tibia, but in fact one says it's long, the other says it's short - who should I listen to? I need to do a test and check the ratio and compare it with the table.

Do you think what size would be best for lengthening the tibia and thighs?

Ur tibia to femur ratio is ideal right now, and the options u listed non of them will fk up ur ratios. Just do the option that gives u the most height

Thank you for your answer. On the one hand, I want to be taller, but on the other hand, I don't want to hide my nkedness for fear that I will look like a dwarf on stilts who has to buy too long shirts for the rest of his life to cover his short torso relative to his legs.

Therefore, it is important to increase it, but neither too little nor too much at the same time so that it is safe for health.

I know it's ideal to not change anything, but being taller will increase my attractiveness from 6/10 to 7/10 on the marriage market.

From what I've seen you're normally proportioned so the added height isn't shocking.  Make the femur 7/8 cm which will take you to 1m78 which is above the average in many countries.  avoid doing Tibia and femur.  It’s already restrictive enough as it is lol

I thought doing the tibia and thigh would make the lengthening more proportional than just doing the thigh. If I make an 8cm thigh without the tibia, this disproportion will be very visible.

Certainly but it's really not shocking, some maybe close to your height were 10 cm or a little more and the result was ok.  now your wingspan is 173 cm if you start wanting more than 1m80 it will be weird because you would be -7cm.  the femur is the value on because the tibia they will cut your humerus and the tibia and the athletic abilities will be affected.  in addition the tibia is generally 5 cm max while the femur is precisely +6cm to 8cm (to stay within the safety range).  make a photo montage of your femur at +7/8cm and see what it gives

The answer to these questions is always the same. Do 6 cm femur and complete that first. If you still feel the need to after recovering and you have the money then do 4 cm tibia afterwards.

Just go for femurs 8cm. Take it a centimeter at a time. You can stop at any point if you don't like how the proportions look once you reach a certain length

In my country you can take a vacation for 6 months.

Will extending the tibia by 4-5 cm make me regain the ability to walk after 6 months?

6 months for everything, i.e. 3 months for extension and 3 months for recovery.

please answer. Thank you.

Like most other here says go with Femurs. They heal faster, has a much lower complication rate and with a higher overall safe height gain potential.

I understand, but it's better to start with the shins because they take longer to regenerate, and then move on to the thighs.

example:

I have been extending my shins by 5.2 cm for 3 months
then I rest for 3 months.

3 months later I stretch my thigh by 6.8 cm
then I rest for 3 months.

The point is that starting with the shins, while stretching the thighs, they also regenerate.

I finish the topic in 12 months with a 12 cm stretch and a return to fitness.

What do you think ?

5.2 cm on tibia is risky. You will not be walking normal after 6 months.

If really are serious about doing the LL, the doc will usually ask you to make a full rentgen of your legs. Once you have that you will have a precises measurement of your bone length. You have a nice span, therefore doing an LL is very much an option for you. Depending on the result of the xrays, you can choose which option is better for you. Also, get enough money for the internals. 6 months is plenty of time to regenerate.

The surgery itself as well as rehab takes its toll on you, doing a quad surgery is really not recommended in any case. You might do the first surgery and realize that its too much for you, hence you wont go for the 2nd one. As for the amount of centimeters you will gain, its a moot point to talk about it right now. The decision to be made right now is to schedule the surgery (or not). Whether you gonna get this much or that much height depends on the last weeks of your distraction phase, your mental endurance and pain. Which doc are you going with?

The odds of you walking within 6 months with femur 6cm+ is not very high. And with tibias at 5cm+ theres very little chance you will be walking within 6 months. I am 6 months into my femur and I am not walking yet at 8cm. So YMMV. Anyone who is saying 6 month is plenty of time has not done LL. There is alot that can delay you or go wrong. Good luck mate.

I was walking unassisted after 4 months. I did 8cm on femurs. It’s usually 6 months if you do the max amount like I did. If you only do 6cm, you should be walking by month 4

I don't understand why people are still worried about proportions. It's way more socially beneficial (in my opinion) to be tall and have somewhat skewed proportions rather than being short and having ideal ones. Besides, long-leggedness is often considered peak attractiveness in most societies.

I agree with Philosopher. Nobody except people who care about LL thinks or looks at legs propertions. So unless you do some crazy amount in one segment, where you can barely walk probably like 10 cm, you don't need to worry...

I made a mock-up of myself.
on the left I am 170 cm tall.
the second photo is the femur increased by 7.5 cm.
the third photo is femur and tibia at 5.5 cm = 13 cm ( 183 cm all).

what do you think ?

In my opinion, 13 cms looks reasonable only because your torso seems really long, but in your case i dont think the wingspan is a "huge" problem simply because of the angle from which you took the photo. Usually when you do mockups you qant your phone to be at the level of your belly. Nobody's gonna look at you from that point of view, but I still think 11-12cms might be a better option, considering proportions/height/safety.

from 169.5 cm to 183 cm.
that must make a huge difference with women.

I'll see.
In November, I'm paying for a procedure to lengthen my shin by 6 cm (I hope the surgeon agrees because apparently it only takes 5 cm).

I'm running for politics, so I'll probably put the date in June. I will give myself such a gift for my 30th birthday ;).

Hello,

I made the final decision. I have 1 life.

tibia-6cm
femur:7.5cm
ratio: 0.8
= 13.5 cm

my height before: 169.5-170
my height after: 183 - 183.5 (6 feet)

I think I will be happy and my dating life will improve.

What do you think ?

Start with femur and then decide if you want another surgery.
You might be satisfied with your new height and also terrified from being crippled all over again.
In my opinion it's not realistic to plan 2 surgeries before you experience this ordeal.
And go for femurs.

Also, the mock up and the proportions aspect is kinda useless and not relevant to real life. Unless you do like 8+ cm on tibias, or have some extreme off proportions prior to surgery.

Much more important is to do it safely, with an experienced doctor, and have realistic expectations
