What is the biggest length gain on femur and tibia without adding extreme risk if performed on person who is already 6'2'' tall?

There should be "safer range" and then a "riskier range", correct?

Are 8 centimeters total gain realistic or too much?

Please no judging. Let's just discuss subject at hand.

Not sure if bait, but I'll bite. From what I've read here from multiple forum goers, I think you can do 10-12cm split between the two segments and it should be as safe as it gets while getting all the bang for your buck. Now it gets a little sketchy and very few people have attempted this and come out unscathed, but you can go for 15-20cm which is really pushing the limit. You can only do 15-20cm without looking like a freak if your ape index is massive and you've got god tier luck.

Since you have longer legs at 6’2” you could probably crank out 10cm in the femur. 7-8 in the tibia as the length is much less. Someone like Betz is probably best as his Betzbone can be internal whilst at the same time lengthening beyond 8.25cm. Stryde only goes up to 8.25cm but that is what shorter guys do when they max out the rod. I’d say 10 is a good range for you, 11 if you want to push it.

you are fking 6'2 what the hell is wrong with you. you are either trolling or have height dysphoria. Im thinking you are trolling.

15-20 cm is way too much I will look like a freak and probably will take on way too much risk.

10 cm would be a sweet spot. It would put me at 2 meters with shoes. That would be amazing. The only concern I have is having paper thin legs afterwards, is there some way to train lengthened legs to gain more mass and improve proportions?

I have the money to go to the best surgeons in any part of the world. What would be recommendation for something like this?

No, I'm living in reality. In my area most young men in clubs are over six feet. To mog properly you have to outcompete them hard.

So 10 centimeters total? Or 10 in one session on femur?

10 in Femurs. You could do 7-8 in tibias. So 17 cm total and you could push to 18 if you wanted. As long as you have decent torso length and arm length you should be fine. Like I said go with someone like Betz or Jamal someone who has their own nail that can be internal whilst lengthening more than 8cm. If you want to be on the extremely safe side you can just do 8cm with stryde. But it's infinitely more expensive and you get less height.

Ummm...gaining 12 cm would be amazing, since it would make me 2 meters tall.

Gaining 17 cm would be way too much and make me look and move weirdly. Waaay too risky and waay too tall.

So you are saying 12 cm in total femur and tibia is relatively safe with internals?

Is Stryde safer than other methods? Stryde gives you 8 cm total or 8 cm in femur?

If I want to gain total of 12, 13 cm, it probably makes sense for me to lengthen femurs and tibias respectively with the proper ratio.

Yes it's safer. It's always best to do one segment IMO. If you're doing tibias and femurs just think about it. You're additionally gonna have to break your tibias. Your tibias never need to be broken in your life for any reason. They'll never be the same. But yes if you want to do 12-13cm you're gonna need 2 segments done. If you just want 10, you should go with just femurs and be done with it.

If I were you at 6'2" i'd get 7cm done on my tibia using external (the safest and most proven method) and i'd just be done with it. You'd be over 6'4" and it would be only like 15k opposed to 100k+

Looks like it makes most sense for me to just go with femurs and get 8-10 cm done. With shoes I'd be 2 meters. And even if I'm barely 2 meters, who cares, it will still be tall as hell.

Externals are way more risky. Way less risk to get internal on femur, no?

Externals are also cumbersome and have higher infection risk. Sounds like a bad deal to me.

External tibia is the safest. External femur is the worst.

[Mr.Bone]

External tibia is the safest. External femur is the worst.

What is the reason for this?

Why aren't internals better for Tibia?

Why aren't internal femurs safer than external tibia?

[Johnson1111]

There is no risk of internal infection or fat embolism with external tibia. With internal femur there is a small risk of both. These two things have resulted in the most deaths of LL patients that have died. You completely eliminate the risk of death from the two most common occurrences by switching to external tibia. Also external tibia has been done for a long time and doctors have a ton of experience with it.

[TemakiSushi]

Oh there is a risk of deep infection with external tibias also
Have to choose a right doctor who can detect problems at very early stages when something bad happens
