stop thinking about proportions

Edit Post

There's some really awkward videos of him "running"

Edit Post

He was 5'7(maybe a cm more) and he did almost 20 cm.He was super greedy imo.He could do 10 cm and have a better recorevy and much better proportions.(5'11 is a great height imo)Maybe he can run right now but im sure its very slow.And i doubt if he can walk 5-10 min without geting tired.
He will have so many long term problems.
And im very sure he wont go to a public beach or a pool again..

Yeah,im very realistic when it comes to this surgery and everyone should be like this..This is no joke.And about this topic DONT stop thinking about proportions.Proportions are important and nothing can change this.Be realistic.Dont try to fool yourself with "proportions are not important" just because you want to be taller.
You wont be able to reverse this procedure after its done.What will happen if you hate your body when you look at mirror?
Again,please be realistic.

I like what Dr Birkholtz had to say about proportions in this post: http://www.limblengtheningforum.com/index.php?topic=137.msg2102#msg2102

Remember that longer distances may mean more height, but they also mean longer treatment times and exponentially more complications. This is especially common once we exceed the 2 inch mark for a segment. This is the main reason I would limit a lengthening to a maximum of 10cm in total - safety first. There is no sense in having beautiful long legs if you cannot use them!

Yes he is right. Its bad for your health to get that much taller but he says nothing about looking weird. And that's what I mean. People are too scared to look weird

no interest to risk your health just because you want to be taller as your friends
185-188 seems good, even if 188 is the average
but I think you've already thought it

Its not worth it to risk your health i agree but this topic isn't about health. Its about people stressing too much to look weird after lengthening a lot. But i wouldn't do it too cuz of health reasons. My point was that most people dont have to worry about proportions since theres very little chance to look weird. And i dobt think apotheosis looks weird in the photo. My 6'3 natural friend has the same proportions.

I think that 10-12cm is really the max in terms of proportions (two surgeries)
