Worth it at 5’9?

Edit Post

I was 5' 9.5" and did 3 inches on my femurs. For me, it was definitely worth it. I love the way I look now and feel more confident in my day to day social interactions.

That being said, I will say it's more like getting a Ferrari or a Rolex or some other really nice luxury item. It wasn't strictly necessary and more of an indulgence. It's not the same as someone who's life is legitimately hindered in a really bad way because they are truly short.

I would say if money's not an issue and you've done your research and this is something you absolutely can't stop thinking about, then go ahead and do it. However, I would not mortgage your financial future by going into debt to do something like this.

Seems like a pretty costly luxury item no? Not trying to be antagonistic or anything btw; I have the money but the risk of potentially not being able to walk/run properly even with a top surgeon does make it a pretty difficult decision as a 5’9 guy. Plus the arthritis risk. Though my height is the only thing I dislike about myself (I’ve been asked to model, so I’m cool w my face) so it makes it a tough decision.
