Super conservative amount of lengthening in exchange of a rapid 100% recovery?

So, i'm 5'2, at 24 years old, super short, and this has become unbearable
I somewhat convinced my parents to pay for this surgery because i had no gf since high school and my dad is worried about that.
But i don't want anyone to suspect, that's why i want to do it i summer vacations, and here is the matter;
Considering i want to do femurs first and then tibias, a full year appart, so two summers doing this, its possible to maintain the time between surgery and recovery (until i can walk without crutches on any kind of support) at 4 months each as a top time limit? the numbers i have in my mind are 5cm femurs and 4 cm tibias, and both are planned to be made with an external method, maybe including a titanium plate the doctor recommend to attach in the bone at the time you end lengthening. I could even consider the top lengthening amount at 4.5 and 3.5 cm each if that helps to heal faster, but under that is just a nonsense.
What do you think guys?

Why are you doing external femurs if your dad who is paying for your surgery is rich?
Going to be hard to disguise a nearly 10cm height gain in mid 20s.
4 months to be walking with no crutches is a very limited timeline especially if you have any complications, you need to add in some extra time in case something goes wrong. Who is your surgeon and what was their opinion?

My dad has a good amount of capital but he doesn't have much liquidity rn (real state), at least if i want to do it this summer (four months from now here in the southern hemisphere), so externals are the main option at the moment, plus, this doctor from Argentina who is probably going to make the surgery, only does, externals and precise.
He has good reputation, apparently he has done a few interventions with paley and worked in Spain a couple years. I had the opportunity to contact a few of his previous patients of him who did CLL and they have a good rewievs
I'm already using height insoles to look taller, and i can add even more to reach something like 7 cm from the floor and softens the contrast between my actual height to my height after surgery. Months after all the process, when i can already walk normally again i can start to use sport shoes and even confortables insoles again just saying i am using insoles and/or thicker shoes, which explain my taller height.

I'm going to have an x-ray of my legs tomorrow and i'm talking more in detail with my doctor after that

At your height a comservative amount won't make a significant difference.
Either go for about 14cm (8 femurs and 6 on tibias) or at.least 12cm otherwise get a nice car or something like that with all that money.

Also,.external femurs will ruin you. Forget about it.

5'5 is better than 5'2, you'll definitely have a better recovery than most. My only recommendation is go for internal nails vs external.

Why not to do external femurs? i would like to know what do you think
And, external tibias it's fine? i saw its pretty common to do it this way instead of precise

I prefer to stay safe and shorten the post lengthening and consolidation phase. 9 cm its fine to me instead of 12 or so, is not that much of a difference to me

Great, thanks you

External femur has very high chances of infection and complications, also the recovery time is very long.
The nails penetrate through a lot of nerves and muscles so it’s easy to get infection

And what about external in tibias?
