proportions after my experience

Edit Post

Hello guys, i did around 7cm in femurs with fitbone internal nail. Before surgery my legs were short , my sitting height was 91cm  for 165, after surgery i have normal/short legs. I know that many people think about proportions , after this amount of lengthening i look perfectly normal and im very confident that i could do 5 cm in tibias and look normal too,with my legs a little bit in the long side, your arms are only going to look short if you do like 7 or 8 cm over your armspawn . the conclusion is that if you are short you could do more cm than you imagine and look perfectly normal, short people almost always are short legged,  dont think that much in proportions, because there is no worse disproportion than being short.

My sitting height is almost the same, I would say that the surgery make you even more proportionate than before.

my femurs are a bit long now if you look to my tibias, but nothing strange and no one cares, them doesnt look weird.
  overall i look much better than before surgery. and my torso/legs proportion is much better now.
if you are short and you have normal proportions for a short person you are going to improve a lot your aesthetics with an amount like 7cm because most of short people has disproportionate short legs .

Could you give an exact amount in centimeters? I would really like to compare. I'm 166cm and have 91cm of sitting height so i'm really similar to you pre op.

Anyone else here have an armspan 3" more than your height?

36.5cm tibia and 44.5 femur. You have to measure this by telemetry xray

Pre-op?
91 sitting height + 36.5 tibias + 44.5 femurs = 172cm, and that's without counting the knee and feet.
Unless I miscalculated.

Yeah thats what the telemetry shows. I think that you could not add the sitting height for a correct measurement

We have to discount a possible magnification of around 10% . Its very common with those xrays.
