I read a lot about complications that come from lengthening more than 5cm (2inches) so I figured, would it be smarter to lengthen 1.5inches on each segment without two surgeries? I heard about sequential lengthening but I'm not sure if it is done simultaneously or done through two surgeries.
Also, at that rate of lengthening 1.5inches on each segment for a total of 3, I shouldn't expect much of a loss in mobility or anything of that sort, correct?
I really wanna get into modeling but my height has been turning so many agencies away. At 5' 10", I can fraud up to two inches as each model does and claim 6 foot. This would be ideal.
Even 5' 9.5" would be good enough for me, and I'm assuming I would also be proportional within this range.
Can anyone answer my concerns please? I would really appreciate it.
I'm about 170cm (5' 7") and wish to lengthen up to (5' 9.5-5' 10"), need help

It would be a bad idea to do LL surgery for less than 5cm, because one is so expensive and physically draining itself. Probably the femurs for 6.5cm (a bit more than 2.5 inch) is good enough. But I’ll let more experienced veterans give their wisdom.
No, I'm a man. I don't intend on doing underwear modeling or anything like that lol, just runway. They need you at a 5' 11" minimum as a male which is why 5' 10" is perfect as most models fraud their height for up to two inches.
About 2.5in on femurs, I heard there was someone here who got his LL done in 2008 in China and did 7.5cm which is ~3in and he seems to be suffering from knee pain now in his 30s. I figured 3in is too much, but then again I think he did this on his tibias.
I'd be proportionate because I think I have a long wingspan.
