Opinions/advice on my proportion?

Edit Post

Hello, 19 year old male here, I'm saving up for a surgery to fix my height.

I'm 159 cm which is extremely short, sitting height is around 80 cm and my wingspan is around 165 cm, my most conservative own measurement. Here is my proportion: https://imgur.com/5F6wPbp

I'm hoping for at least a 12cm gain to 171, is that too too much? Also considering my age, I'm skinny and not very athletic. Hope to do both femur and tibia

Android Thanks for the reply. I'm in the Southeast Asia region, budget wise, I'm hoping the entire treatment won't exceed 80k USD. I'd hope to do it in Singapore or Korea but I've read a lot about Dr Guichet and I won't leave out Europe or the US as my option just that I know it would jack up the cost to more than multiple thousands over 100k USD but if it means better, safer treatment and more growth then I'd take that. I should be able to take a year off 2 years from now after my studies and my parents are very sympathetic so there's that. Also sure that more than 10 cm would take multiple treatments so is my price expectation realistic?

So I just discovered how to make mockups and played around until my proportion is too exaggerated. Not taking into account if it's even possible for my body to handle more than 10cm without complications or losing athletic abilities. The height added is split between femur and tibia

Almost 90% of males and even fking females my age range towers over me at 159cm by more than 8cm. It gets really bad, I don't think you've felt how much it sucks to be more than 8cm shorter than your friends. It can drive you mad, not to mention no one takes you seriously and no one speaks to you as an adult.

Thanks for the helpful information. It might be my bad slouching posture which throws the sh measurement off, I've been doing some spine exercises the past 2 weeks and I measured myself and tried to correct my posture and it comes to around 162-163 which is still very short but should really help reduce the burden of the surgery. It's crazy that you have grown from 167 to 181, definitely makes me feel more confident, my ideal height is 175 and I wouldn't be against wearing lifts. Regarding athletic abilities as long as I can do some light jogging and light sports like tennis, I'm happy. I probably have to start sorting logistics required for this surgery since it's still really early and I don't have to worry about stuff like career/resume gaps yet.

Just search on youtube stretching exercises for height. The most important areas are the spine, neck and shoulders. I still find myself slouching from time to time and still have to exert some strength and effort to stand/sit straight and have a better posture. The more you do it the more natural it will start to feel.
