Hello, I am a 22 years old guy from outside the states. I myself am 171/172cm barefoot and wear 2.5 inch shoe lifts to make me appear like a 176-177cm guy everytime I leave my place.
Anyway, I’ve realized that I can't wear shoe lifts forever. I mean every time I take off my shoes, I am facing reality again..Also, as you guys know, young people are getting taller almost everywhere and the average height in North America and most European countries for guy around my age (under 30) last time I checked is literally 177-180cm (hence, I'm not even talking about Holland and some Scandinavian countries where young guys are 182-184cm on average)
With that said though, even I have an ambition and good financial security, I still feel like girls would still ignore me for taller guys barefoot.
Now, I really want to save a big money for undergo two separate bilateral (femur+tibia) lengthening in the US which would bring me to maxed 181-182cm. While 181-182cm is still not that tall by Western standard, it's literally a solid height for a young guy almost everywhere in the West (again, save Holland). Oh, I almost forget to mention that I choose the US due to its good reputation for this kind of surgery (ex. Dr. Paley from Florida and Dr. Rozbruch from New York).
So, my question is, should I save a big money for this surgery? Is it worth it for guys my height? Thanks in advance.
