I plan to do femirs first to get max length. I know Dr. ASSAYAG recommends to wait a year to do tibia lengthening.
Am I able to do tibia after 4 months after femur surgery? I just don't want to recover fully and then break my legs again
If you want to get maximum length (8cm femurs + 5cm tibias), then you will need to wait 12 months between the surgeries. That's because you need that much time to stretch and recover your muscles, nerves, and soft tissues for the next surgery. They are all interconnected.
If you are going for less combined length (about 10cm combined), then you can wait as early as 3 to 4 weeks to do the next surgery.

so you did femurs, stayed 3 months baltimore for the lengthening and physical therapy. Then went home recover for a year, then went back to do the tibias?

Close. I stayed in Baltimore for almost 4 months (2.8 months to lengthen and 1 month in consolidation). Then I returned a little over 1 year after the femur surgery to lengthen tibias and fix an external tibial torsion problem.

oh ok. and you are overall satisfied with Dr Assayag and his team? and areas can be improved on? I like the way Dr Assayag thinks and expresses in his interview with Cybor4life. It seems like a cheaper option than Paley and just as good.

I give a positive recommendation for Dr Assayag and his team. That's why I chose him over Paley - lower price but just as good, skilled, and reliable.
