I'm 6' or so myself, but my brothers are 6'3 and 6'5 and most of my cousins are taller than me too, so that gives me a pretty warped perspective on height. I always expected to be tall, but among young guys in my country I'm only a hair above average, and whenever I see tall guys I can't help but feel incredibly envious.

I'd kill for 2 inches to stand comfortably above average and finally enter "tall" territory. I think the fact that I'm taller than most candidates should lessen the risks too, since it's less proportional gain. Still, I know that as an above average man considering leg lengthening, it's more insecurity and neurotics talking than actual sense. Is it really worth the insane cost and substantial risks just to satisfy a a silly insecurity? Probably not. But I know it'd make me happier. There've been plenty of times where I hung out with shorter guys, or even where I forgot to take off my shoes and everyone else did(lol) and the feeling of standing out as being the tallest or one of the tallest there was euphoric for me.

So I don't know. Is it narcissistic of me? Yes. Is it insecure? Yes. Is it sensible? Perhaps not. But is it worth it? I think no matter how often I tell myself no, I'll still always think deep down that it is.

It's mostly about body image and what you feel. If you feel miserable because you are 5'11 then go for it. If you are not miserable because of your height but you think that gaining some inches will be nice then don't do it. It's not worth the pain, risks, and suffering unless height is negatively impacting your life. Elevator shoes might be a good option for you. Get some 4" elevator shoes and wear them in public if you just want to show off your height. The return on investment is much better for people who are short and will become average after the surgery.

thank you first for your comment contrasting your sincere thoughts .First , you are expressing sincerely how the large majority of men think , we want to show off their height in public , we want to be the tallest one in the streets , comparing your height to others .I think it's a general feeling , that men don't talk about , it's far to be narcissistic personnality .

Once you are over like 5ft8 then it is a lot got to do with the general charm, charisma and so forth. If you do want to change something about you’re appearance maybe try plastic surgery but definitely no need for Limb Lengthening.

If you are that tall, try them. Pricey shoes, that have a 1 to 1,5 inch lifts. They will do you wonders.
