hello, first of all i'd be more than welcome if you forgive this unconvenient image but i had to blur the areas. Whatever. I know nobody will be able to comment perfectly due to the angle etc.

I'm fully aware of that. So im not expecting an expert opinion on this. Just please give me some opinions though.

I'm 176 and my armspan is 182cm. I have worries about my arm length. My hands are huge btw, not clearly seen in the picture but as big as my 6"3 friend. Im thinking maybe my narrow af shoulders give the illusion of my arms looking short, or i actually have short arms.

Whats your opinion on this

Edit: I have NOT measured my armspan wrongly. Its 182cm.
My big hands adds like 3 cm of an advantage compared to an average guy. So if you minus it, and take my span as 179cm. Its still in the O.K line. The thing is, is it my arms are short or my shoulder is narrow?

My opinion, as someone who has actually done the procedure: Stop being weird, either lengthen or don't, do not contribute to your mental illness by fixating on something that literally nobody notices. If you feel this is actually a real thing that you must know the answer to, ask for the opinion of somebody in the real world who does not have the warped view on body proportions of the people on this forum.

In my experience, anyone obsessing about proportions, arm or hand length should rethink about LL.
Because you obviously have more problems than just your height. There is a whole body dysphoria thing going on in cases like this.

LL will make you taller, that's it.
Successful cosmetic LL patients want to get taller and don't obsess about this.

I appreciate the responses and i get what you mean.
But could you be more specific about the question that i asked? You guys are totally right but i just wanted to make sure it'll look GOOD rather than MAN IS TALL BUT ARMS KINDA LOOKIN OFF type of a thing.

Just pleaseee.. at least a slight opinion on the proportions..

Agreed, obsessing over arm length or proportions is much worse of a dysphoria than height. People actually care about how tall you are, but no one cares about your proportions.

If you lengthen 8 cm to 184 you will look fine with a 182 armspan.

Yeah but most likely i won't pass over 7 on femurs, but i feel like my tibias MIGHT be short, i'll just get an xray and follow my doc's lead whenever i decide to get the procedure done.

Exactly.
