Quote from: djimbo9 on May 25, 2022, 11:05:17 PMI wanna do femurs 10cm if I could. I wonder if the circumstances will allow. How do you see a 183cm man wearing 6cm boots with 5cm height insoles inside? How do you compare him to a let's say 192cm man wearing 2cm shoes? How different would I look?

You will look like a man walking on stilts.I am yet to see a post ll patient that did 6-7cm+ on one segment that looked 100% natural. 6cm for me, is the upper limit a person can lengthen before starting to look odd. This is solely based on pics and vids of patients post ll. Just to add, starting to look odd does not mean looking bad. Looking bad for me is when patients get to 10 and beyond... never seen someone who lengthened that much that looked good.

Edit: also, the best recoveries I have seen are of people who did a max of 6cm on femurs and 5 on tibs. The videos of Turkish surgeon patients who did more are not reliable in my opinion and user heightjourney who recently posted a video of stretching, can bearly flex his knees beyond 90° degrees and he did 7cm with an excellent surgeon

As far as I am concerned if you wanna go beyond 5-6cm you should consider femurs+tibias otherwise not only will it be dangerous but also singular lengthening over 5-6cm will ruin your leg proportions.

Even at 8 cm Fem CLL my Tib./Fem. ratio is way out now (maybe ~.77), this combined with my skinny femurs (48 cm diam)  and thick(ish) calves makes me reluctant to ever be seen in shorts in public. , but 25 mm shoe lifts do help give the impression of longer Tibias and improve the T/F ratio.

Tibs/fems ratio in my opinion is not so important as we are talking about bones that are 30-45cm long. Every single cm to either the tibs or fems change the ratio (numerically ) by a lot. Basically, every cm beyong 2cm to either will get you out of the normal range. In my opinion legs to upper body and arm length  (which usually correlates with torso length) are the most important factors... look on youtube a "short" posted by mahboubian of a guy who lengthened 8cm on femurs..  he looks horrible

I guess I was "lucky" as my sitting height is 93 cm, for me the extra 8 cm (10 cm with lifts) on my legs only improved my Leg/Body ratio, and my wingspan was not too bad at 177 cm.

It is extremely rare but it could happen.

A study suggests it seals ar age of 24 for men. Check this website for the growth bone plate.

Srsly if you can grow after 24 y.o you should consider to go buy some lotteries since you are that lucky.

Rare rare men grow after 24 y.o and just do LL and call it a day.

My guess is probably 1 out of every 1000 men can grow after age of 24! It's rare.

I remember that I probably had a friend who grew like an inch in his late 20s. Like at age of 28.

Based on what many said, they told me their growth spurt is around age of 15! Some age of 18!

Hopefully 8cm femur + 5cm tibia is safe if not i’ll be so depressed  13 or 15cm safe
