If you lengthen 2cm then you might be able to do it in 1 year. But if you do around 10cm there is no chance to recover in less than 20 months.

Quote from: Uppland on November 23, 2014, 06:17:25 AMI think it's very uncommon for people to do more than one surgery.
Lol.It's very uncommon to do this surgery period. It's like I said in a previous thread. Only consider this surgery if you want to be taller on a 10/10 scale otherwise, do other things with you life!
Quote from: Uppland on November 22, 2014, 04:18:56 PMThere seems to be no real consensus on humerus lenghtening. Some sources say less than 3-4CM is preferable and some report lenghtening up to 8-9CM without any problems at all. A 3CM gain doesn't sound like much but it will do wonders for your proportions if your arms are too short.
I have considered doing 3-4 cms but I will only do it if it's with Ilizarov. For 3cm, you'd obly have to suck up the pain for a month and can be walking again in less than 3 months compared to 5-7.5cms which would take 4-6 sometimes even more months.

wise decision
i would be satisfied at 185 cm since it's average height for white young men in my country.
I don't have a particular ideal goal, if i do ll, i will only gain 5 cm max, and i will be totally fine with that.

Lol 185 cm height for young men--that's crazy to imagine.
Quote from: 123 on November 22, 2014, 04:52:22 PMYou will only need AL only if you you lengthen your legs more than 10 cm. That will take you more than 2 years. Do that first before you even consider it. 2 years is a long long time, way too long.
Stop dreaming around guys...
At one point, most of the newbie think far ahead the reality hahaha. Trust me! I was one of of the morons who was thinking about gaining 15 cm with 2 surgeries and 1 AL. Give them sometimes, probably 1% of them will be strong enough( mentally, financially, physically) to do all 3. I am still struggling to get my first 1 done, and the AL is completely out of my head by now 
About the satisfaction. 5ft11 would do it for me. I do not live in giant lands where population makes up less than 1% of world population. 5ft11 seems to be a decent height for the rest of the world. Not extremely tall, but at this height, I will free my mind of this height neurosis bull and stop blaming every failures in my life for my height.
first picture is my real height and its about 154-155 cm. .
my goal height is 165 cm but I cant do it yet < lack of money>
the second photo my femur is lenghtend just 4-5 cm
And the last one is both my femur and my tibia. my femur 4-5 cm and my tibia 3-4 cm: total 7-9 cm
. please tell your opinion about my proportion. . can I go for both of them. .

They all pretty much look fine.
