Hey..
Uhm, i'm kinda new here. Just had a tiny question about the lengthening on the Femurs. i appreciate anyone's help <3
I was originally hoping to go up to 5'10, and to do that i needed a gain of 7 or 8 cm's. But, i was hoping to get it done on my Tibia's.. not the femurs.
And as so many professional doctors with experience have recommended that it's quite risky to exceed 5 - 6 cm's on the tibia, I thought i could just do the lengthening on my Femurs.. but.. the problem i have is, My thighs are pretty big.
I'm not too sure my thighs are ready to be performed on.. They are pretty big and bulky. Both from muscles and fat.
And that my muscle tissues might not be able to handle the stretching, leading to complications and a rougher road than expected.
I've considered working out my thighs and losing a lot of fat in general before the surgery, Because obviously i need to prepare well but, I was just hoping if just like so, My thighs on their own, as fat and as big as they are, might be able to handle 8 cm's of lengthening?
I am in no way looking towards miracles or i am in no way greedy to gain so much height
Just as long as i know i'm safe and everything goes according to plan avoiding major complications.
I hope my post doesn't drift away in the abyss of this website and someone actually comes across this..
A reply would be much appreciated <3 thank you

Thank you so much for your reply, I really appreciate it
Yes, I agree. I must lose weight and i'm currently working on that.
my Body Mass Index is 22.6, I've calculated it.
Which is why i seem to have this question in mind, Because i'm not really considered fat, Just average. But yeah, maybe my thighs might be a little fat or if they're already too long to be lengthened. My tibia seemed rather short, which is why i wanted to perform on them, Not my femurs.
I am able to afford internal Leg Lengthening using the rod thankfully , I'll be using that method.
But would my thigh still be a problem if i used internal? or does this only account to External Fixators?
Sorry if i talk too much
i'm new here..
