Proportions aside, is 4+4 twice safe? Assuming you did 4 cm femurs, then once that’s done do 4cm tibias, then wait a year and rebreak femurs for another 4cm then after rebreak tibias for another 4cm. 16cm total. It sounds pretty safe and in a video with cyborg 4 life he said it’s a really good option. Thoughts?

Most people will never want to go back to rebreak, despite grandoise plans to do so. Ask the Paley team how many people actually come back for the rebreak vs. those who are happy with the initial 2 surgeries and move on with life. The proof is in the pudding.

I totally agree, but that’s perfectly fine cuz proportions are better than doing it twice plus it would still put me at 6’0 after 4 and 4 so I probably wouldn’t wanna do it again

Proportions are a great reason to do both if that is your goal and not incumbered by the cost  4+4 twice with Paley thoughts

The problem is that you are still lengthening soft tissue 8 cm in total on both segments which is an extreme amount for Tibia's.

Kind of dumb to spend so much extra rehabilitation time and 100k+ for one inch. Just do 8cm femurs in one go and tibias 5.5-6cm and call it a day.

It's very unlikely you would go back to do the rebreak. It sounds good in theory but once your legs are broken and you complete one lengthening, the last thing you want to do is go back for more. I would recommend doing 7-8cm in the femurs and calling it a day.

My proportions look a milllllion times better with 4 and 4 rather than 8 on femurs. That is my issue. Literally 8 on femurs looks bad and 4 and 4 looks decent
