I remember seeing comments here and old forum  on some people saying height is not a big factor. I also know that some surgeons do a psychic evaluation of why a LL aspirant wants to do LL.

Wanted to share my mind on this (and this is what I will tell to the doctor, i don't care if they deem me unfit for the surgery based on this reply) - I have won high;profile quiz competition awards where people were dazzled by my knowledge, I have traveled to dozens of countries, had a very interesting life, am highly educated, am very kind hearted (adore animals, kids, people. do lot of charity - like 30% of my income goes to charity), know 5 languages, I never lie (always speak truth), am good looking, I am 5'4". And then I see people who have never been outside of their village/town, average in education, knowledge , cruel minded (beat animals etc.), liers/cheaters but are taller. Guess what? if a random person (read woman/girl) looks at us, the taller guy will look more interesting and I look not interesting, in clubs the taller guy (no matter how insignificant he is in real life) stands out, i don't. Do I deserve this? I am a far more interesting person, a far better soul but my body matters above all? and do these (otherwise useless) tall guys deserve to look more attractive/interesting? no. God is not fair and I want to look like what I am. hence, LL is the 'equalizer'  , the one that creates level playing field.

Not much about deserving for me, too karmic. Newborns have no say about their physical attributes or even where they're born.

You can't choose your parents, so you can't choose your height. You can choose to be happy with your height, but I'm not. I'm objectively shorter than average, and since I've put in the hard work to earn enough money, I've made the choice to do something about it.

Unlike gaining muscle or losing weight, changing your wardrobe and accessorizing, height is static. Thanks to CLL that's no longer the case, so I'd rather take this risk than think "what if?" for years to come.

makes sense.  For me - it is primarily like I feel I 'deserve' to be taller and something unfair has been done to me (by making me shorter), but of course the 'what if' factor is also big factor, life is one and nobody should wonder 'what if'  in death bed. I can assure you the answer to 'what if' will be good, height cannot be negative, it will be helpful. Though in the parents factor (or genes factor) I am not much sure (though I am a science student) from my observation it is primary nutrition/lifestyle kids get/choose, genes/parents factors come distant second.

Not everyone judges based on looks. Also, lots of really good people also look really bad. So I don't see height as a matter of deserving it or not; it wouldn't stop at just height. I do get your point, however.

Have you already tried using lifts plus any form of elevated shoes if you only care about the social perception you get from height?

As for myself, I'd like to get taller to have peace of mind. I'd reach my father's height and never have to think about it again.

I tried my best to improve all my aspects in my appearance and general in myself and now I am a 29 yo man with a good looking face (I go for grooming every 15-20 days), big muscles with less than 15% fat, good style and clothes, a high education diploma and a better than average job.
But still I don't get the attention I would and I can't many women I could only because I am not tall enough.
So I tried very hard to improve everything I could physically and my only drawback (not big after my first LL but still drawback) is my height.
So I really believe I deserve a second LL and a better height to become a completely fulfilled person and get all the things I tried and worked for.

Praskash i want to clear something up. U accused me of insulting u for being indian. But u didn't im an asain myself too. India is way better than my country. But I've lived in Europe for a long time so I know the standards. When u opened the thread about dr.parihars clinic, by asking whether ur indian I meant the appearance won't be much of a suprise to u if u were an indian. For me i don't expect European standards in my country or india but i know we have cleaver doctors like any other region. Anyway u sound like an awesome guy

Bodybuilder, how tall are you if you don't mind me asking?
