Im looking to do a conservative amount of lengthening, about 5 cm in femur and 4 cm in tibias (about 1 year apart). It's possible all the procedure can take about 4 months for each one as an upper limit? i mean, time since the first operation until im able to walk again not using any kind of crutches or a walker.
It seems somewhat not possible, but im willing even to lower the amount to 4.5 and 3.5 respectively if i can reach that time limit. I dont want to loose a year in this and just do it as a summer procedure. 7 cm in total its more than enough for me, i'm 158 cm tall and reaching 165 cm tall considering i have money (or at least my dad have money and i'm going to inherit a good business) and i have a very good looking face, sounds like enough, i can mimic anyone being 167 or 168 cm tall with a pair of shoes that allow me that.

Based on bunch of medical papers 1 to 1.5 month/cm for full recovery with externals. So 5 cm should be 5-8 months. Femurs heal faster though, with precise 2, I believe it's possible to walk with crutches during the consolidation so 3-4 months in the process.

I have the same Time problem with this procedure can’t do this and be out for a year
+ I want to get tall as possible
So I thought about dividing the lengthening doing 4 cm in femur or tibia come back next year rebreak
And do the other 4 cm
But I don’t know if ever I’ll find a creditable doctor who could accept and do this
+ can precise nail work and lengthen again after a year
Is something I consider
