The rest of your legs
I actually look more proportional now. I had short femurs and short legs in comparison to my torso.
I also corrected part of my leg discrepancy.
Quote from: Kotiki on May 30, 2020, 01:05:29 PMStretching of soft tissues is only an issue when going for an ambitious lengthening amount. Patients are kinda forced to do it to make the cost and the risks of surgery worth it.
If you could lengthen 3 cm with externals - cheaply, without risks associated with sticking a rod into the bone canal, and fast (two months, from surgery to full consolidation), you could conceivably do it in two goes with a year for soft tissues to stretch inbetween.
Still other patients may decide that lengthening 3-4 cm is worth it with low risk and low cost involved. And just stop at that.

Anyone can come here and make any claim like this. "I am 100% recovered. I am a chick magnet. I can play amateur football" And it creates this impression that this is a safe operation and can lead to good results even though literally anyone can come and write this with no proof whatsoever.

Well, believe whatever you want believe. I have no reason to lie.
If that was the case I'd say that I'm 184cm tall not 174.5cm; that my squats are perfect (as I said in other threads, they are harder now because of the longer femur) and that I had no pain lengthening (not the case, as I said in other threads, I had way more pain during LL than the average Betz patient).

You can write whatever you want. I was just pointing out how literally anyone can come here and write anything they want and people believe them over time with zero evidence fully.
People even decide on doctors based on this.
