My proportions 5'3 and 5'8 compared (2.5 inches both Tibia and 2.5 inches both Femur)
Hope to get some thoughts in how does that look

Honestly it looks bad like you have put a Child torso on adult legs. You can try and hide it with clothes but it only looks slightly better. Try 5'6 and how that looks.

Try 5'6 to 5'7

You wouldn't look too bad with at 8 or 10 cm frame increase. And say you reach 5'7 you'd be perfectly fine wt that height.

Maybe I`m a little too greedy, I would reduce to like, 5'7 and 1/2, my torso is the length of a 5'7 guy
I`m 1.60m with 1.71 (+11cm) should be cool dont you think?

I think the 5'8 with casual clothing one looks okay.  The 5'8 underwear pic doesn't look good to me, though.

Basically you can go for my own plan of reaching 5'7 and then simply wearing sneakers or any other sort of casual shoes that give a minimum of 3 cm (like Nike Airmax and most other formal shoe wear). It's a noticeable increase without lying to much.

That is what I thought initially, maybe I fked up at some point, the underwear pic isnt the best pic thou
5'8 would be the perfect but, anyways If it is to get 2 surgeries I`ll aim 5'7 1/2 something like (1.71)
Also I want to get more details on my measures somehow

Then really accepting your limitations proportion wise would be the best outcome; it's essentially what I came to terms with myself. I know I can perfectly find happiness in being 5'7. It's an inch above my dad, it's average for my ethnicity (Mexican-Americans; 5'7), I'll be taller then most girls now, and really I may be called short here and there; but A) I won't be discriminated against, and B) if they call me that with malice that's on them for their  ty attitude and close-mindedness.

I think I`ll do well with like 5'7 1/2, it is basically 5'7 which would fit perfectly with my height now, the 1/2 is just so I can fit in my country`s medium height
