So, I don't know much about this surgery. I've read that it is risky, and there are a LOT of shady doctors who do the procedure, but that's about it. Anyway, I want to have this done. As long as I can make a good recovery, I will spend as much as I need to. I am 5'8 now, and my adult will either be 5'9 or 5'10. So my first question : is it realistic for me to expect to be 6'0 after the surgery? How risky is it? What risks am I facing doing this procedure? Will I be able to do things like sprinting, and bodybuilding? I'm not a professional bodybuilder and never plan to be, but I do like to stay muscular and in shape. Would getting the surgery stop me from doing that? Also, who is the best doctor to go to, and how much would it cost me? Some of you may think I'm crazy for wanting to spend so much just to be 6 feet tall, but to me, it is worth every penny. I really don't care about the money. Having confidence is worth it to me.
Edit : more questions. Should I have my femurs or Tibias lengthened? Like I said, I'm looking to be about 6ft afterwards, so what is the best way to go? Oh, and I want to go with the internal method.
