Only with walkers and slowlyHow is your walk? Can you yet?
Ok, but then why not get Precice or Stryde if other surgeons in Turkey cost less?But I’m comparing with surgeons in Turkey not USA that are much more expensive
No, I mean that is around that
Precise is around 40K in Turkey. So I save 20K with a method that is +- as safe as, and +- same recovery time, only big downside is being more painful, but anyway I save 20KOk, but then why not get Precice or Stryde if other surgeons in Turkey cost less?
Low IQ move if you spent 20k euros for LON when you could have easily spent around the same price for someone who provides Precice.
Because LL is a huge commitment and if you can spend 20k on it than 40k should be no problem unless you're a wageslave. I personally find making enough money not difficult though, which is why I'm saving up.Precise is around 40K in Turkey.

How is it low IQ move??
This is a very personal decision, 20K is a lot of money. The results in the end will be the same, and risk also, in the end you’re trading 20K for less discomfort and pain, and that’s it.

20k really isn't a lot of money. For example, if you were paid 25USD an hour and worked 40 hours a week you would make $1000. There are 52 weeks in a year, so you would make $52000 a year. Not including expenses of course. But if you did that consistently, also invested in stocks and had a passive income, and claimed you had new a business each year, 20k is literally nothing.This is a very personal decision, 20K is a lot of money.

It does, LON is not a good method overallDoesn’t precice give you more gains and potential safer long term?
Yes like precice is better for long term mobility and strengthIt does, LON is not a good method overall
NoDoesn’t precice give you more gains and potential safer long term?
No, it’s not. Doesn’t make difference long term. It’s your muscles, other soft tissues and bones that makes difference, not the nail usedYes like precice is better for long term mobility and strength

I still respect your choice, don't get me wrong. But 20k is a very small amount for something like LL.
You can literally make 20k from one night of gamblingFor a lot of people 20k is lots of money
Yeah ok, so just do it and earn 600K per month. Very easyYou can literally make 20k from one night of gambling
I never said it would be easy, you gotta take risks and actually put in the effort.Yeah ok, so just do it and earn 600K per month. Very easy
This is completely unfeasible, and stupid to risk, unless you’re already millionaire. Stop coppingI never said it would be easy, you gotta take risks and actually put in the effort.
Low IQ, I literally did the math for you already. Work a $25 per hour job for 40 hours a week and in 26 weeks (6 months), you would make 26k.This is completely unfeasible, and stupid to risk, unless you’re already millionaire. Stop copping

Changed completely the subject of the gambling after seeing how Unfeasible it wasLow IQ, I literally did the math for you already. Work a $25 per hour job for 40 hours a week and in 26 weeks (6 months), you would make 26k.
But you have to spend money to eat, sleep, cope, etc. Plus unless you work online like OP or smth, you'd have to save some money for the 6~12 months that you're gonna be crippled. Not to mention the safe funds in case shit goes south.Low IQ, I literally did the math for you already. Work a $25 per hour job for 40 hours a week and in 26 weeks (6 months), you would make 26k.

Anyway, looks like you really never worked in life. It’s already completely wrong you considering that you’ll save all your earns, without expending nothing. Most people who earn that can save very few of it
Second, even if could save, 6 months of work is a lot of time, I’d prefer much more having a more painful process than losing 6 months of work. As I already said here there is no long term risks increasing in doing LON over precise
But this discussion will lead to nothing, so I’m finishing here
Yea, I've clearly never worked a job in my entire life yet I understand how basic income works much better than youAnyway, looks like you really never worked in life.
Yeah, understands very well how it works and assume in calculations that you'd save everything earnedYea, I've clearly never worked a job in my entire life yet I understand how basic income works much better than you
Fair enough, all that matters is what you're happy with the choices you've made for LL at the end of the day.Yeah, understands very well how it works and assume in calculations that you'd save everything earned
Anyway, I can understand someone preferring to do Precise, but as I said, its a personal reason, who are less scared of pain and prioritises more money do LON and who prefers a more comfortable process even losing a lot of work time do Precise, not right or wrong here
(Im not considering millionaries or those who receive like more than 50K per month)
why you deleted your ig page? is there something wrong bro?Yeah, understands very well how it works and assume in calculations that you'd save everything earned

its still up for me but he has not updated in a while
why cant you do both?No, you do either femur or tibia, not both
And you can go beyond to 10cm if you want, but it is risky, 8cm is the safe limit for femur
why you couldn't reach 8cm when you did femur?I know these are commonly parroted lines in the LL community, but my experience is different. Firstly, internals vs LON does matter because of the extra length of recovery with LON and greater inconvenience, which can be demotivating. Thus, practically internals encourage more ambitious lengthening goals and greater ease of PT. With internals for example, tibia LL to 7.5 cm only amounts to an extra several weeks of lengthening over 6.5 cm, and maybe 2-3 extra months of stretching recovery after. Quite doable.
wagmi bro i will get ll too and clavicle lengthening with humerus lengtheningIm currently doing LL, method LON Femur. 2 weeks passed so far. If someone have some doubts feel free to ask.
I am also posting my results on this instagram:

You cant, but not at the same time, one of the reason its because is the same nerve that passes in both parts, and nerve growth is what limit growth rate in LL to 1cm per daywhy cant you do both?
Thank you for sharing your experienceJust to all know, I finished 3 months ago, stoping at 7cm, I developed foot drop, and Im treating it, expect to recover from it, but it takes time, meanwhile I'll be able to walk using an AFO (insole that put inside the shoes to stabilize it)
And final answer. LL is very very very brutal. There were many nights I couldnt sleep, and some nights I screamed for hours due to pain. After removing the fixator, and having the foot drop, for a period I had a very strong nerve pain all day all night, that Im glad now it mostly passed
The nerve pain had high severity, in the peek I needed to use very strong opioids, and stayed long time in hospitalThank you for sharing your experience
It seems that although you went through some problems none of them seems to have high severity
Do you regret anyhow going through this procedure? Would you do this again?
Anyway, i wish you good luck in your recovery, you have balls, i respect that
Very interesting read. Sports is of the table for the rest of your life I assume?The nerve pain had high severity, in the peek I needed to use very strong opioids, and stayed long time in hospital
Foot drop has a very high severity, lucky for me I have access to excellent treatments. The Drs. say that can take 6months-2 years to recover, if doesnt recover there's a surgery that enables to be straight and you walk normally
Meanwhile, theres an AFO that you put inside the shoes and enables you to walk.
And I dont regret, I would do it again for sure. But because Im very looksmaxer, I do care a lot with looks, have high goals in life, so for me its worth
NoVery interesting read. Sports is of the table for the rest of your life I assume?
why exactly foot drop happened? good luck on your journey btw.

Do you fear any side effects like being crippled in twenty years? Also what about fucking up your proportions, don't wanna end up looking like a T-Rex

Swelling went down a lot, results already looking very good, Ill wait more 2-3 weeks and make a threat about ithows bimax going bro
Not even 200 posts in and you already got bimax and LL.Swelling went down a lot, results already looking very good, Ill wait more 2-3 weeks and make a threat about it
very nice!Swelling went down a lot, results already looking very good, Ill wait more 2-3 weeks and make a threat about it
So you are 180.5cm/5'11 now since you stopped at 7cm? How does it feel to be 180.5/5'11 compared to 5'8/173? I'm 173cm so the same height you were before, I'm considering this but it all seems pretty brutal. Do you think it's better to wear lifts than get LL if 170cm+?Just to all know, I finished 3 months ago, stoping at 7cm, I developed foot drop, and Im treating it, expect to recover from it, but it takes time, meanwhile I'll be able to walk using an AFO (insole that put inside the shoes to stabilize it)

Truly brutal
LL is so fucking crazy definitely the most extreme looksmax surgery. Congrats for having the balls and money to go through with it.1- Most height in theory infinitive, there are stories of people lengthening even 15cm, but going a lot could lead to several complications, including be really cripped. Most height that can be SAFELY done is 8cm (for femur, if you do in tibia is 6cm)
2- I dont think it looks so bad, and it can be correct with laser operation if you want. Not to mention that if you do in femur wont be visible unless youre naked
3- You will do, but you wont run 100% like you did before, youll be a bit worse, because your biomechanics/balance will be different. And will take a few months to be able to run and sports again
4- Nobody knows it for sure, but so far LL veterans didnt have it
No, 7cm, solomente algunos amigos saben, pero la mayor parte noHey bro, que tal vas ahorita @looksseg
Te arrepientes? Cuántos cm? Tus amigos saben?
