Hi,
22 yo, currently 5’9 on the dot. I’ve ALWAYS felt short and it’s never been about girls or comparing to friends, I’ve always just had this in my head since I stopped growing (around 16). I’m about to get a job that pays 90-100k a year. Is this worth saving up for? I would only do it quadrilateral for proportions, probably 6cm and 4cm (femurs and tibias). That would put me at 6’1. Thoughts? And I would 1000% only do it in the US, ideally Paley institute or maybe Mahboubian/assayag/Limbplastx. Need some advice plz thanks

Hey,
Thanks for the advice. I’m white, and yeah being 5’9 makes it a tough decision for sure. What about the femur/tibia option where after 3-4 weeks post tibia u do femur? I mean I only want like 5-6cm in femur and 3-4 in tibia. Both ik are doable, it’s just 4 broken bones as opposed to 2. I get that. And I would really like to hit 6ft, and I definitely don’t want to do 8cm femurs, my femurs are already long, and I’ve done the measurements and compared ratios.
