I did 12.36cm with Betzbone on femurs (AMA)

Edit Post

Wow, this is incredible! Going from 161cm to almost 174cm is a night-and-day difference. I hope you make a full recovery soon. I believe that almost no one pays attention to people's proportions, so I don't think anyone would notice your femur-to-tibia ratio. But If you plan to lengthen your tibia later, please wait at least a year. Your body needs time to adjust to such an extreme change

At this height 1,61cm I would go to max that I could get in terms of height, proportions would be my last concern.

• How bad is the tightness?
• Has Becker advised any methods on improving the duckass? 

--Currently I have tightness is barely anything. Improving by the day my mobiliity since stop click
--Continue with the stretches is the only way to fix duck. now i am not clicking its better

you have to first set the goal of ok maybe 8cm most can likely do. then every cm after its a fight. if you body or bones dont allow it, you can't force it. my bone healing was ok so i was able to get to my result. my original goal was 11.5 then 11.7, getting to 12.36 was better then i thought i could do.

 Why you didnt choose quadriletaral instead?.. not sure if is possible with betz, but ig you do 9 cm in femur plus 6 in tibia at the same time even you can do more.. is a question that also do because im planing do 9-10 in grece or 8 femur and 6 in tibia with betz at the same time.. thoughts?

I am the OP. No idea old account password or email.

I wanted to give you guys final update after 15+ months and end the journal here. I am doing well and so very happy with the results.

I started at 161. 3cm and ended at 173. 66cm. I did in total 12. 36cm on femurs.

Sorry for the lack of updates just went back to life and wanted to think ahead and put LL and all the behind. I removed all the media online because I just wanted to move on and for my privacy.

I am walking normal. When im outside nobody can even tell I ever did anything. Physically it looks normal, and walking its normal. All is good, when im just walking or doing regular stuff i forget sometimes it happened like long ago dream almost. Going outside its nice to be average height. With shoes i can be over 175cm.

I can really say that its a huge difference just overall in my feeling going outside before being 5'3 and to now being over 5'8. the journey itself was long, hard, painful, the result and if i could do it again yes i would without a doubt.

thanks, good luck all

dam 12 cm on the femur alone is a big achievement. but also the bone is super long when u wear shorts. im going to do about 6.5cm on the femur next yr. so im guessing i dont have to fear much i guess. can i ask you after being release from the hospital (1st surgery) were u walking or had a walker with you?
