1" gain?

Edit Post

I honestly think that wanting to be taller at 6'0"or 6'1" is understandable. It's extremely common to see people taller than you at those heights. I see far too many men that tower over me in my day to day life. But lifts will cause back trouble so it's probably better to wear elevator shoes. They're are people on the old forum old forum  (which I also believe to be corrupt) that are 6'0" + getting ll.

I agree that the height is very common (now being at it), but by no means do I ever feel short like I did on a daily basis before. So this has definitely been a huge success for me mentally. I totally get how you can feel frustrated every time you stand beside a 6'2+ plus guy-- I was especially frustrated at this reality since I felt that my investment deserved more return, but you have to put things in perspective. There will always be taller people than you. You're in the range of taller heights already, so this probably wouldn't be advisable for you. If you want to do it, do at least 5cm, and go with a surgeon like Parihar.

Is it me or in the last couple of days we have only 5'10+ potential patients, well whatever , I always thought the more popular LL gets the more taller people will want to do it

Yeah, there seems to be a bottleneck occurring around the average height range. Guys that are under average become average after LL, and those who were average naturally may feel cheated or offended by that. If more 6ft-6ft1 guys start feeling that their manliness is becoming jeopardized they too may start frequenting the site. Remember it's all relative, and no one can ever win in this game.

For some of those taller guys height was their trump card, even if a guy was better than them by every other metric he could quickly be put back in his place by calling him a 'manlet'. With LL that advantage
can be taken away.

For the OP if it makes you happy do 1 inch but only if you have all other aspects of your life covered. Career/relationships/finances. As you are not getting s**t about your height as you are above average you'd get a higher roi if you worked on those other aspects before LL.

If money were not a factor and I was offered the opportunity of Precise with a competent surgeon, I'd do another 7cm on femurs in a heartbeat. It's naive and ignorant to say there's no benefit from jumping up to 6'2 from 6'0.

 It's easy to feel the will to do it, but once you've endured it once then that image, though it does diminish with time, acts a reminder how arduous and risky this whole thing is. It's something that needs to consume you on a daily basis to actually commit to it.

To be honest, I wouldn't care if I saw someone taller than me at 6'2". I see 6'0-6'2" very frequently amongst caucasian males. I know 6'3" and 6'4" isn't rare however, it's significantly less common than 6'0"-6'2". I'll probably ll to 6'3" and wear really thin shoes to appear 6'2!

I didn't say that there's no benefit. I just say that a 6'2" doesn't tower over a solid 6 footer.

Didn't say it was you who was saying that. The consensus on here seems as soon as you hit the magical 6ft mark, then no matter what, if you even dare to think about height for even a moment, then you are mentally ill. Just because someone is that height doesn't mean they never get towered or feel the height difference to others. Being 5'9 and feeling short to a 5'11 is the same case as a 6'0 to a 6'2. Only thing I suggested to you was to do more than 2.5cm, or else the time and pain will not be worth it.
