8cm tibia & 12cm femur

Edit Post

Quote from: YOUNGandSTRONG on June 14, 2023, 07:52:39 PMI only know of 4 people who have achieved that extension, two of them seem to be "fine" but the rest I have no idea of ​​their lives today. A 15-16 cm extension as done at the Paley Institute is safe.

8+12 is 20, not 16. OP also asked about doing it in one go, which Paley does 4 + 4, then a year later 4 + 4. 12cm on femurs in one go is crazy.

1mm a day should keep the doctor away

Without even knowing your wingspan, I already know your proportions are going to be terrible and will likely necessitate arm lengthening too...but that's assuming you'll even be able to walk after going to such an extreme.

The guy who opened LiveLifeTaller did 20cm and he is in good shape albeit he did it in 3 surgeries but I don't see the difference. Could do 18cm too but you always need to aim high because you may lose some cm’s in the process

Many people have done it, what makes you think it's not make able? If it's  a proportion issue I don't see the problem.

It's not just about bone regenerate, it's also about all the soft tissues being able to keep up. The longer your lengthen, the more side effects you'll receive. Nerves. Muscles. Tendons. The more you lengthen, the more at risk you are of complications. Just because you only lengthen 1mm a day does not mean you can lengthen to infinity. There is a reason Dr. Paley only lengthens 4 + 4, then waits a year to do another 4 + 4. Do you know more than the best limb lengthening surgeon in the world? Unlikely.

>LifeLiveTaller.

Lol. The same clinic that has been caught lying about their patient outcomes, and has been caught making fake diaries on this very forum? You are going to trust LiveLifeTaller, Dr. Buldu, who is a known butcher and his cronies like Sedat?

I am beginning to think you're just trolling. Or you were caught bright-eyed and bushy-tailed by the flashy marketing they do on social media.

What does this even mean? Your femurs and tibias do not shrink, or lose height, like your spine does. Do you mean because of the Q-Angle? Now you are just saying nonsense.

"Many people have done it"

WHO!? What Doctor has performed cosmetic limb lengthening and lengthened their patient by 20cm!? Not Paley, and not 12cm in a single go!

Clearly you don't want to listen, you only want to be told what you want to hear. So go ahead. Do what you want to do. It's your body, and I have no control over it. While I do not look forward to you crippling yourself, I do wish that you write a diary so that this forum can use you as an example of what not to do, and hopefully prevent other people in the future from making the same mistake.

Are you Paley’s right-hand man because all you do is say “Paley, Paley, Paley” There are other doctors in the world not just your Paley

QuoteWhat does this even mean? Your femurs and tibias do not shrink, or lose height, like your spine does. Do you mean because of the Q-Angle? Now you are just saying nonsense.

I heard you lose approximately 15-20% with Lon so stop acting so smart

There's no way to do these amounts together (or on their own) without ending up crippled.

Many have done it in the past like Dr. Halil who did 20 cms in 3 surgeries and he's in spectacular form but would 10+7 be more realistic?

I wonder if Paley does the second 4 + 4 along the exact same points or if he distracts somewhere else on the bone.

Something I was thinking about:

You are technically lengthening along the same mid point during a lengthening, so maximum strain will be on the soft tissue right in the middle of the breakage point.

Maybe Paley breaks another place on the second go to spread the soft tissue strain instead of keeping it all the same place?

This might be the funniest thing i have had the displeasure of reading. Lets just quickly piece together this guys plan, hes planning on going to one of the cheap 💩er countries for a surgery that should only be available to the people who can actually afford it, presumably this means hes cheaping out on a surgery that involves breaking one of the most valuable parts of your body. He wants to do TIBIAS of all parts, AND wants to lengthen FAR beyond any surgeons recommended length Hes already considering before even having the surgery to lengthen 1mm a day before even knowing what it will be like. AND to add icing to the cake hes completely unwilling to listen to genuine feedback as hes so hell-bent on his imaginary number he cant even consider that crippled legs that are tall are just as unnatractive as FUNCTIONAL short legs, if not far worse. Im gonna Hope to god that your short. And i mean SHORT short like between 5 foot and 5’4 because i cant possibly see any other height where you would want that much length gained. If you dont give yourself a reasonable height goal, your gonna be a cripple with slightly longer legs. Make the right choice ffs
