Hello dear members,

I'm a newbie; this is my first thread.  I have been thinking about LL surgery for nearly two years, and I will keep thinking about it until I get the money.  But I want something new to think about by asking for your opinion on my stature, how much should I increase and in which parts.
I will put the measurements of my overall height, wingspan, and sitting height, backed up with my photograph.

Overall height: 1. 65 cm
Sitting height: 87 cm
Wingspan: 1. 68

Photograph:

My suggestion is 4 cm femur + 4 cm tibiae to reach 173 cm.

What do you think?

Also, I think I shouldn't increase more than my suggestion because of my short torso. What do you think?

I appreciate your help.

Thank you

Thanks a lot, kunta kinte.

I think I'll end up with a long femur.

I modified the thread and included my suggestion. I hope to know your opinion.

Really!! I think they are not in reality.
Could you please explain what do you mean by 10 cm? I mean in which part(s)?


Thank you

What's wrong with a long femur and short torso? It is a naturally occurring body type after all. Nobody will suspect anything.

I think one should choose the measurements that would make their body seem as proportional, I mean natural, as possible. Increasing a little bit in both parts of the leg without overlooking the torso is the best option, i think. Imagine a short torso, a long femur and a short tibiae.

Anyway, please what do you think of my suggestion in relation to my body?

Thanks a lot, Taller.

you can pull your underpants down a bit and it looks also better otherwise looks your torso smaller.
4.5 cm on tibias and 3.5 cm on femurs would suit you. lol

If you can aford it go for the 4+4 it will look the most natural and you will gain the most height without risking the freaky look which you get with lengthening only one part for a big gain. If you don't mind me asking, how long is your inseam(measure from croch to ground) because your legs look long?
