I would advise 4-5.08cm femurs and no more than 4cm on tibias.

Quote from: DreamOf180cm on December 28, 2016, 01:39:25 AMThe Kaiser - I always thought 5cm was the safe number for tibias and 6.5cm the safe for femurs  Questions for former LL patients?  I was thinking the femurs could take a little more than tibias. This is false?


My friend, its not me who said that. I said above "what best doctors said"

5 cm is low risk, 6-8 cm is medium risk, above 8 is high risk, according to the most experience doctor Dror Paley.

but even low risk could make some one cripple and medium risk make him appreciate the surgery. We dont know the outcome but least amount is always better but not necessary.

Quote from: Dallas on December 28, 2016, 12:03:46 AMHi, guys I'm a new member and have been thinking about LL for sometime now. I am 21 and currently stand at 166.5cm or 5"5 ft and would like to reach 173cm or 5"8ft. I have been thinking about using Dr.Parihar in Mumbai in January 2018 with precice 2 in my femurs for a gain of 6.5cm or 5"8 and if I go through with it I will try to make a diary of the experience.
 
On to the questions!

1) Is my goal of 6.5 cm in my femurs relatively safe? Safety is my biggest concern with LL.
Yes
2) After LL will I be able to work out my legs again like doing squats or being able to jog? 
Yes . But not like before
3) Do you think Dr. Parihar is someone I can trust with this surgery?
Yes
4) What is the time frame for going home, then walking, then normal life?
3 months . 5 months , 8 months. But not full recovery for Sports. Only for daily normal things
5) Was your life better before or after LL and would you recommended it to others who feel inadequate with their height?
After
Thanks in advance! I look forward to reading your advice! 

Edit* : I also don't want to have 2 separate LL operations to achieve my goal. I don't have the capital or time for 2 operations and don't want to mess with my tibias.
