I’m 25 years old and am preparing for my phd degree , which would cost me 5 years to finish. So far I don’t have a 200k to do a double surgery (4+4). And I suppose that after my graduation, it would take 3-4 years for me to save the money. Hence I would be like 34 years old at that time. Then I need to quit my job to get one year vacancy for the surgery. I would be 35 years old when I could barely walk like a normal person. And I would be quite old for industrial market with a few years of experience and barely no savings. I feel  quite lost here and I don’t know the whether the surgery would worth such a sacrifice.

in case you were considering LL mostly for dating, it's not only for that so some still do it after 20s

I'm also almost 30 soon as well. Personally, I see myself doing this at 30+ as well. For one, waiting for Precise Max and probably a better variation for it in case the first one needs some improvements. But most because I have plans changing careers and moving to another country first and seeing where it goes from there. Hopefully I can manage some time off during this to undertake this surgery, I can see convincing working from home due to my work being essentially in front of the computer all day anyways.

I was 32 and that is already quite old for this I would say. Ideally you do this when you are still growing or shortly after that because your body will recover much faster. Doing this in your 30s will make this harder, I will say that just the way it is.

I have my surgery scheduled for this year 2024. I will still be 25. Maybe it’ll pass as ultra late growth spurt lol (I know it won’t).

You will benefit far greater to have this done sooner rather than later.  I wouldn't kick the can down the road for 10 years to wait and get this done.  You will see much better benefits getting this done in your mid 20's rather than mid 30's.  For dating, you still have access to many single women right now that don't have baggage.  You wait until you're 35 and all that will be available by then will be single mothers with multiple kids from different dudes, or "leftover women" that nobody wants.  Go for just femurs first...way cheaper than being married to the idea of quadrilateral.

I do agree getting it done sooner rather than later is obviously best if you have the money.

But settling down with a single mother is a choice, and a bad one at that. You're better off either single, or better yet, dating younger women. Getting outside the west is a good start to prolong dating the desirable age range (basically college girls, which can easily be done in your 30s outside of the west).
