This guy doesn't need LL

Thank God I don't have to worry too much about proportions, given my short legs.

QuoteWe were mislead by the fact that we all gave views to this topic because we wanted to see a well proportioned individual with healthy legs.

I have no idea what you wanted to see, and I don't care. Keep your negativity out of my threads, dumbass.

QuoteYes I saw that, wish I was born in the 2080's.

That year sounds about right. I'm pretty sure this limb lengthening thing will be obsolete within two or three generations. They will look back and see it as a barbaric procedure, but there's really no other choice right now if we want to grow taller.

Hopefully we will be able to grow several centimeters without risks in the coming decades.

That's incredibly pessimistic. There are already stem cell therapies to make you grow talleravailable right now! I would give it no more than 10 year before a viable replacement to leg lengthening exists.

Cosmetically? Maybe. But there will always be a place for limb lengthening using Ilizarov for deformities and ghastly injuries.

Yeah, I meant cosmetically.

If a new method does come out, I do hope it's something that doesn't have a cancer risk like HGH apparently does. I understand parents giving kids projected to be short HGH so they can possibly prevent the kid having a harder time in life, but the possibility of constant headaches and tumors later...not worth it, imo.

Maybe the limb lengthening procedure will just become easier and easier with better recovery as a result. Didn't Paley write something about lengthening soft tissue along with the bone?

They could mod you for that, problematic people are not liked in most forums.
