5' 0.5" female (in case that's not obvious), hoping to lengthen tibiae. I think it'd look strange to lengthen femurs. Thoughts?

you look very well proportioned already to be honest.

Try posting a pic with a bikini and put the camera a little lower in order to get a better angle.

Ok I will try- when I tried to take it lower though it cuts off my upper body. I have been told I'm evenly proportioned (unsolicited) so if that's what you see it's probably accurate

From what I noticed women sometimes have significantly longer femurs than tibias. Also many of them have short torsos compared to legs. It's possible that you have the torso length of someone who is like 5'4-5'5 female. Your legs are longer than your torso but you are not leggy. I think a few inches will not hurt your proportions at all. What's your goal?

TIBIKE- here is with the camera lower. I think it makes my legs look longer than they are though!

Well since I would prefer to lengthen my lower legs, I can't get more than 2.5cm, meaning 5'3 is the max height I could achieve. 5'4" or 5'5" is my dream height, but I'd rather 5'3" with long lower legs than 5'4" or 5'5" with long thighs/femurs

again, you look completely proportional (You actually have what is considered the prefered proportions for females where I am from... evidently long thighs compared to legs). I don't think you can lengthen much if at all.

 I know it would sound stupid, but you should be happy that you have such proportions

It's not my proportions I'm unhappy with so much (although I've always wished for longer lower legs) as it is my height. I don't want to be so extremely short!

that's fine. I am not going to tell you not to do it. But just be aware that for everyone there is a risk to give away height neurosis  and get a proportion neurosis in return.

I don't think I'll be neurotic about proportions. In fact, I've always hated my lower legs and wished they were longer and thinner. All my siblings had/have long, thin lower legs and since I was a teen I thought mine were short and stubby. So, I currently have lower leg neurosis, and I think LL would take care of that too which is a bonus

My biggest concerns with it are long term complications
