Will tibia be better for proportions?

Edit Post

I feel like tibia would give the best result proportion wise. Your arm is measured against your femur, so tibia lengthening won't affect how long your arm looks.

I've seen patient photos with 5cm tibial lengthening  and even with the knowledge of them doing the surgery I still couldn't tell they did anything. Looks natural

But with femurs though, I can always very obviously tell if someone did 8cm femur leg lengthening if given the knowledge of the surgery.

Imo, 5cm tibs look much more natural than 8cm femurs in a nude full body image

If you are looking for a 1:1 ratio, then tibia would be the way to go since tibias are usually slightly shorter although this varies by ethnicity. Even if your legs are already proportionate, lengthening the tibia will give the illusion that the segments are proportionate.

I agree! Femur lengthening can really mess up your proportions.

She did ll? Whats her name. Longer femurs looks better on women than men but even then this is very noticeable

Hey,

She's even a known person. I guess she is modelling or something like that. Her name is Theresia Fischer, as far as I remember. She did 8cm+ on femurs by Betzbone. I think it might be 8.5 or around. It's quite the obvious! She is now 177cm.

You can google her name and read a lot of information about her lengthening.

On the contrary, LL on the femurs look better on men because women already have longer femurs in comparison to their tibia (relative to men's femur/tibia ratio).

Most of my fellow LL'ers who were female in Germany stopped at 5cm to 6cm because of that.

She is an attractive Girl, but sorry to say her legs look Horrible, her Tibs look so stubby - her Tibia/Femur ratio seems to be around 0.7 (far away from normal .77 ->.83 range).
I imagine my legs would look very similar to hers. , I also have done CLL for 8cm on Fem., my T/F ratio is also ~ 0.7, and I have skinny legs (but thankfully I have a decent 93 cm sitting height and so still have a good Sh/H ratio of 93/179 = 0.52).
So Thank You - this picture has only reinforced my desire for another 4cm on Tibs to bring my own T/F ratio back to a palatable 0.77 .

Literally if you put shorts on that girl that went down even half her thigh she would look pretty much normal. She's showing basically her pubes and that's why she looks like that. Men don't gotta worry about this, we won't be showing our shiet like her. We wear much more modestly

I don’t really agree here. She wears high heels or shoes with thick soles in literally every photo, so I’m quite sure she’s aware of her proportion issues. And what about being nked? I’d feel really uncomfortable getting nked in front of my partner if my proportions were off.
