My 184cm Proportions vs a long-legged model

The picture is edited, no human has proportions like this. It looks really bad, much worse than your mock-ups which look quit good for a 15cm increase. It's still too much, you'd have to spend a ton of money and years of recovery just to be 183 with crapty proportions. 175 with acceptable proportions is much better imo, this surgery is no magic and certainly has it's limits. If you start below 170, there is just no way you can acciev 180+ without suffering functional losses.

He looks fine.

@deads: I'm much like you in that I have a decent body(ish) but I have longer arms. If you get humerus lengthening (which after reading about I don't think will be too bad). Then you could achieve virtually the same thing.

The idea of 3 surgeries isn't appealing to me.. I'm happy with one surgery achieving 5"9. But I completely understand that you want to make the most of this surgery.

Just got contacted by Dr Jamal saying he consider me 'for his programme'. I have never heard of this Doctor before, anybody else know who he is ?

He said he was impressed with my proportions, is this what Doctors base your ability to lengthen on ?

People have gone to Dr N for internal limb lengthening. He uses his variation of the Bliskunov nail, which in the femur version also has an attachment that enters the pelvis.

Yet another topic of Razorfin about his proportion Lol You remind me of Greekster from the old forum. After his first surgery, he posted pictures of his proportions compared to 6'1-6'2 models countless time just to convince everyone else that he will look like a God after his 17 cms gain. I remember reading somewhere one of his posts recently that he is regretting doing that much.

If I was ballsy enough and had the means to do 2 operations, I wouldn't want to listen to anyone's opinions except for my own, especially from the users on this forum who will probably never do LL in their lifetime.

Razor, the biggest problem for you would the overwhelming time and money it will take to achieve this. At the same time considering the massive strain even doing 5+8 does on your body it won't be what you used to be at all. In all honesty do what you will, but my recommendation for your crazy attitude would be 5+5 or 5+6. At the very least start with Tibia, reach 5 CM, then go for femurs.

I got my internal femurs confirmed with Guichet this summer in case you were referring that to me. I have a realistic and vivid goal. 5 cm will get me to 5'11. Granted it is an average height, but will I be sad not being over 6'?? No. Thats just plain stupid and it shows that you have nothing better in life to do. Being 5'10 and above is more than enough for anyone not to worry about height unless the person suffers from other crisis in life in which case no amount of LL could save you.
