Thinking about doing LON tibias, just want 4-5cm. Based on other experiences, and your thoughts, is this a reasonable goal? Also if you have surgeon recommendations let me know. Thanks!

Seems reasonable. 4cm-5cm is usually the starting point of where the achilles tendons starts it's limits of stretching, but it depends on the person.

Why you are not going with Precise on femurs? longer bones, heals faster, you can pull more cms

4 cm for safe extension. 5 cm is the safety limit. Anything over 5 cm is a big risk.

Tibia: 4 cm for safe extension. 5 cm is the safety limit. Anything over 5 cm is a big risk.
Femur: 5 cm for save estension. 8 cm is the safety limit. Antything over 8 cm is a big risk.

Thanks!
Do you think that I'll recover 99% if I do internals 6.5cm max on femurs?

Personally, thinking to go just 3 cm on tibia. Get done with it fast.  Preferably in Iran and a reasonable price. 6 months forward, I’m doing 7 cm femur. Hopefully with max system. 10 cm overall. Figure it’s the best for biomechanics, esthetics, proportions and overall significant boost
