I’m feeling anxious. I wish to lengthen the femur by 5cm.

Hello, I am Asian. Specifically, I am Korean. I wish to undergo femur lengthening. Yet, I worry it might look proportionally odd. I consulted a renowned doctor in Korea, named Donghunlee. He advised that it was permissible to lengthen the femur and also increase the tibia. However, I still have my reservations. Certainly, I desire to lengthen the femur since its benefits for athletic performance and quick recovery appear favorable. Yet, aesthetically, I understand that lengthening the tibia is preferable.
Based on the latest technology, eos, my tibia measures 33cm while my thigh measures 42cm.
The eos is slightly below standard X-rays, but the measurements are precise. Only the actual length of the bone is being assessed. My height is between 167 and 168. However, the eos indicates my height as 166.
I am interested in your viewpoint. Would you mind if I opted for five centimeters of femur lengthening?
Please provide an honest response. I plan to upload my picture for a more definite answer.

Honestly, 5cm on the femur is quite acceptable in terms of proportion.

I undergo femur surgery for 8cm and my height was 175cm.

Considering your height, 5cm on the femur won’t appear strange. Additionally, 5cm on the femur isn’t truly « 5cm » in practical terms, unlike the tibia. Therefore, if you get 5cm on your femur, in reality, it will be a little less than that.

Anyeonghaseyo. I am GHkid imnida. I’m American but not Korean. Balli balli fast fast. Park Seo Joon imnida. Itaewon Class is a horrible drama.

Jokes aside, no, I don’t mind at all. Your life, your choice. Koreans prefer tibia more, but that raises the risk of arthritis more than if you did femurs. So femurs are better for health.

I have a short tibia; is it acceptable to lengthen the femur by 5cm? Is there a platform for real-time chatting available here?

Yes, extending Femurs is permissible; your tibia has a normal length.

Indeed, extending the Femurs is acceptable, as your tibia is of standard length.

is it of standard length? I believe it seems too short.
