Why do you want to do to segments. I would go for 5cm in femur. What is your ratio?

well i am going for 15cm so i figure 7.5cm on tibia and 7.5cm on femur will work and keep me proportionate (i got the idea from the FAQ) what do you all think? and i am 5ft 6in and my wingspan is 5ft 9-10in

I think that's a fine plan if you want to get to six feet tall.

Do it,15 cm is noticable and lifechanging,it takes about 2 years but its worth it.

so would it be better for me to put on a bunch of muscle before the surgery? Then I would not look so skinny after the surgery
Will the recovery time decrease if I go lon on both tib and fib?
And do they do this surgery all at once or do they add a few cm then wait a few months then finish the job?
At the time I will be living in new York alone so after the surgery is there thing I should worry about?
