Recently I want to lengthen my thighs through external lon femur. I see that most people on the forum are against this method. The main reason may be that the fixation needle will tear and pull the muscles. But I am curious why there are a lot of case videos like afa and livlifetaller, and the lengthening amount is almost 6-10 cm, and the people in the videos look very happy? Assuming that this is a method that is not suitable for long-distance lengthening, if this method is used to lengthen the lon femur, is it safer to only lengthen it by 3-4 cm? Because I want to do a 4 cm lengthening, I checked the information mentioned by Dr. Paley. Usually, thighs below 4 cm can fully recover their preoperative function, so I want to do a 4 cm lengthening. If it is a 4 cm thigh lengthening, is lon femur still a safe method? I want to use this method because this is the only option in my country, and I cannot go abroad for lengthening.

Don't fall for the LLT and AFA bullcrap propaganda in fact there are countless patients post surgery that stated Buldu personally pushed them to perform their shady company marketing faking they were ok when in fact they were not. Externals is not recommended because you just said, your nerves and muscles take a huge toll. But yeah 4 or 5 cms on femurs with lon should not be any trouble since is a safe range. People do it because is cheaper, that's pretty much it. But make no mistake, lon femurs is no game, from all methods that is the one that has most of people complaining about the pain.

Those commercials really make it seem simple. Are the complaints about pain from the surgery itself, or the aftereffects that persist two years after recovery? If I only get 4cm, I should be able to recover completely, right? For example, there's a forum post about someone who had their height increased by [Perfect Body]. He seem to have gotten 5cm and felt so successful that they regretted not going for 6cm. So, can we conclude the same thing? As long as lon femurs don't exceed 5cm, they're a viable option. While it's more painful, the recovery is good and there are few aftereffects, just like lon tibia.

Yeah most people report excruciating pain from the externals while on femurs. 5 cm is the max people should leghten on femurs regardless of method, not said by me but Paley's opinión. I can't remember the paper saying the people with the best results post surgery were the ones whom did only the safest length ranges. So yeah don't go over 5cm on femurs and your chances of complications drop exponentially.

Within a safe range, I studied the information on the forum. If the postoperative motor function is close to the original state, the thigh length is 3.5 cm without IT band release, and the calf length is 3.5 cm, reaching 7 cm. This extension seems to be the best plan to preserve the original motor function, and it can recover quickly without sequelae. Most people will start to feel tightness in the calf muscles at 4 cm in the thigh, and they will need to do IT band release. Joint stiffness also starts at about 4 cm, and tightness will begin to appear at 3 cm in calf lengthening. These tightnesses are all challenging tendon tension. Once such a situation occurs, flexibility and strength will begin to be affected. Even if recovery is done later, the function will be reduced compared to before the operation. Therefore, I think people who value limb functionality seem to need to control the extension within the above amount.

The reason why you can see there lots of patients coming from those two cesspools happy with LON femur is that they are just propaganda. There are lots of bad diaries concerning Turkey sh!tty LON femur lengthening and you can just confirm that right away in the diary section. And please no more contemplating on doing this surgery in Turkey and Halil Buldu has been the most notorious LL surgeon on this forum, as well as  ty Vietnam because I have come upon many cases in which the LL patients are being left 'recovering indepandently' without any caregiving from their retarded surgeons for ex Dr. Doan who bluffs about his method(it is actually just external without any nail, viz not LON but just fixator lengthening) and is not caring about his patients at all(btw he never lengthened 10 or 10+ cm and he only lengthened 6 or 6cm under). I know a female patient there and her ballet foot is still undealt with for ex, and there are more bad cases in Vietnam. Dr. Doan alone has countless cases of failure already and if you still consider going there to do this surgery then okay it's your own choice.
