I am 165cm tall now and hoping to do two operations in the future to get to 178, do my proportions prevent me from doing this without looking unnatural? Would an arm lengthening also make sense (I don't see any cosmetic arm lengthening before/after photos so hard to see the effect of longer humerus)
Tibia+Femur: 81.7cm
Tibia/Femur: .78
Sitting Height (165-81.7): 83.3cm
Wingspan (not sure if measuring this correctly): 167.6cm
Not sure if the Sitting Height measurement is correct (I subtracted length of my lower body from my total height)
Sitting height is too low for 5'10", measure it again
Just did and it seems right. What would be a good goal with 83.3cm sitting height?
We cannot tell you what lengthening you can tolerate without mockups, and even then you cannot know for sure because of lens distortion
Also tape measurements are inaccurate. You need xray to have precise numbers, then it makes sense to make calculations
For Arm lengthening unfortunately there are few cosmetic cases so we have little clue as to what could happen long term
I know Apo did it, and I know Betz and Donghoon do it (although it is pretty costly). Dr. Assayag also mentioned once that he has done it on a patient and I think dr Solomin does it as well

Sit up on a hard table with a tape measure next to you and measure your eyelevel without tilting your head and add 11-12 cm, if you still get the same number it's probably right
With 83 cm I would go for no more than 5'7", below a 0.49 SH/H ratio starts to look aesthetically deleterious from my observations
