People who do over 5cm per segment: why?

Edit Post

CLL is already a big gamble with a big money and time commitment, so I think most people just try pushing it as far as their body allows.

Which is not the wisest choice, but it's understandable.

Quote from: CaptainAmerica Remember for every inch in human height, the head, chest, hands, etc... They all get much bigger in proportion as well.

There's enough natural variation in humanity that I don't find this a factor at all. It'd be like wondering if Trump got LL done because his hands are too small for his height. Smaller head sizes are also actively selected for in East Asia, because they find it a sign of beauty.

I won't discuss what looks good, either. I just find the worry that others will care or notice minor dis-proportionality to be greatly overstated here. If you want height over perfect proportions, go for it. The risk of complications should be the main worry.

Quote from: CaptainAmericaIdk, maybe I just see this surgery different than 99.9% of the people on here. I'm not trying to be "tall" I know I'll never be tall, my 5'6 head, frame, body, torso length, chest, etc.. They were never ever meant for a tall person. That's fine, I'm alright with being 5'8, 5'9, I know I can look reasonable there.

Hey, that's good. Despite what I just said, I think aiming for safer amounts and being satisfied with them is the way to go.

Correcting CaptainAmerica, Bruno Mars is way less than 5-5 and Adele is not even 5-8 (probably 5-7)
Stop believing them, you can well see there is not 10 cm between them

It really sucks that my I am gonna be disproportionate after lengthening 12 cm but I have no choice guys. I want to reproduce and being this short I would never get to date girls that are close to 173-175 cm. I already hate my father for passing on his manlet genes but now I have to "responsible" and will have to marry a girl that is tall and can't do that at 163 cm only.

And remember, females have much smaller heads than men on average. Just look at how ridiculous that looks. His shoulder girdle and body frame is much less wide than hers as well, even when you account for her weight, it's obvious to the eyes.

IMO a big mistake people on here make is taking solo photos of themselves in a distorted mirror or from an angle that makes their torsos look longer so they look better when they make mockups.... You have to think about what you'd look like next to REAL people. What you see alone in the mirror doesn't matter.

Guess I will have to do some HGH to increase my head and hands size. Hopefully Penis size will increase aswell.

Okay so Bruno Mars is 5’4 and she is 5’’8...

And the reason their isn’t that much difference between them is because Adele is kneeling down slightly.

That’s why I used this photo, to show how different their proportions are since they’re both at face level.

Still the truth is the truth, lengthening over 3 inches you will look comical in real life next to other people.

Lol girls of that height still won’t like you because you will be much smaller than them. Even if you worked out you would probably still be just as wide as them and have a smaller head. They will compare you to previous boyfriends and immediately know. Sorry bro.

everybody has a different bone structure. ive seen some wide ass men with big heads that are 5'6-5'7

but you are right for the most part. I am lengthening only 3-4 cm to avoid any problems with proportions. (but i also can prob get away with lengthening more because i have short legs... wear only 30 inseam)

Edit Post

also you can add some width to your shoulders by hitting your side delts hard.

but i feel one should only do 3 inches if they have the appropriate bone structure/ratios to still look proportionate

the biggest deterrent should not be head size.

it is shoulder width, arm length, torso to leg ratio.

And after that point, it only gets worse. Remember for every inch in human height, the head, chest, hands, etc... They all get much bigger in proportion as well.

They were never ever meant for a tall person. That's fine, I'm alright with being 5'8, 5'9, I know I can look reasonable there. But I definitely won't look reasonable at 5'11, standing next to other guys.

Not to mention the mechanical problems you'll face when you pass say, 8cm total as well. A lot of people on hear don't want to accept it, but it's the reality. Be thankful that you are able to cheat your genetics for any height at all, but you won't be tall and you won't look good tall nor will you function well.

the guy on the right... his head and hand size looks fine. its actually bigger than the guy on left.
the biggest factor is his arm length and shoulder width which make him look not proportional

@CaptainAmerica Are you sure about this? I thought I heard some where that a 5'8" guy has the same torso and head as a 6 feet guy or something, I have seen many 5'9"s with small head but the only thing that'll be a problem is the torso length and wingspan.
