Is it possible to have two surgeries on the femur, one year apart?

According to Cyborg livestreams with doctor Robbins 
The surgery has risks and they increase as you lengthen that’s why they have limits
If your to do more than 10 cm in one go with the femur go ahead and try by yourself
Probably you will be through many complications the least of them is getting a nerve issue where the skin nerve receptors don’t work if u continued you lengthening when getting it you may loose the sense in that area for your life time talking here about reaching for the 8 cm not 10 or more
This area is a small area so even if u lost sensation u won’t be really affected
But this is a minor complication

U can get problems with motor nerves
Tissues
And many many more

Your body isnt  made from bones only u got other stuff running there
And to be sure u can ask a creditable surgeon that u want to do 16 cm on your femur
And check what will he say to u
Not to mention that precice does only 8 or 8.3

So doing more than that means that u will be doing Lon
Or lizarov
 And both are way painful speaking (logically)
More screws into your femur

If you mean tissue problems, again it's fairly treatable and it gets better with time, I don't believe those to be a big deal. If it doesn't, another surgery to decompress nerves is required.

And I don't encourage anyone to lengthen beyond 8 cm on femurs or 6 cm on tibias respectively in one go. I am talking about a very specific case of extensive LL where you for example gain 16 cm on femurs by dividing it into two surgeries set a year or so apart, not lengthening the entire 16 cm on femurs in just one surgery. This is obviously crazy, and I highly doubt it's possible for anyone without achondroplasia.

Surgical truama in the femur 2 times with a 1 year gap only is crazy
Btw your tissues don’t grow 100%  their is a good part that is stretched only remember that this is artificial growth
 where the rate is higher than the normal growth of  teens and kids
8 cm in one bone in 3 months a normal body can’t do that

+ surgical trauma getting frequent in your bone isn’t something u will like


+ You will ruin also  your bio mechanics
Do 16 cm on femur
And 16 or 10 in tibia

Bio mechanics is the relation  between a bone and a bone also ligaments ,tendons with the movement of muscles


Biomechanics in the human body is a science by itself I can’t explain all the possible outcomes but for sure the probability of having a bad outcome will skyrocket doing what u want

And even nerves and how the gravity and force are divided through ur legs
Having bad biomechanics means that u won’t be able to move well
If u moved even if u did u will move with the worst giat i

1-year time frame is arbitrary, but I am prepared to wait for how long it takes. I also however doubt it takes longer than 1.5-2 years for you to reheal completely to be allowed for another surgery as people do surgeries on the same part in a much shorter span.

On the tissue part I am still doing my research and may change my opinions accordingly, but based on the current evidence tissues do adapt if you give them enough time depending on the lengthening amount. And I don't see what is the difference between artificial growth and natural growth?

Even though I am studying my fair share of biomechanics right now, can you elaborate on what you mean by change of force and gravity? Naturally, I assume there's only two major things in biomechanics that change after the surgery: the angle of femurs (which is very negligible) and femur-to-tibia ratio. But I don't see enough evidence to believe that these things are something to be primarily concerned about (I and the vast majority of serious LLrs do not care if they can't run as fast as before or have perfect flexibility) unless you provide me with more information.
