I saw some funny threads on LL forum of people being 5'11-6'2 complaining about their height so I thought I would post this hypothetical to looksmax. Given the extent of some autists' narcissism, I think the poll results would be interesting.
As part of the hypothetical, you would get it from the most experienced LL surgeon (Paley). You would get the mechanical nail inside your femur (which would be successfully removed after 2 years). You would gain 7cm. Are the side effective worth it?
The reason why I chose Paley for the hypothetical is that he is apparently the most experienced clinic in the world according to limblengtheningforum.com
This means you have the best possible chance of minimal complications but extreme side effects could still happen. Considering this, and the below side effects would you get it?
Side effects:
Death from LL could theoretically occur in extreme circumstances.
Fat embolism (possible death) - Risk of fat embolism is apparently ~4%.
Pulmonary embolism
Deep vain thrombosis
Joint luxation
Axial deviation
Neurologic injury
Vascular injury
Premature consolidation
Delayed consolidation
Nonunion
Loss of length
Late bowing
Refracture.
Scoliosis
Pelvic/leg misalignment
Here is a video showing the surgery life. It looks barbaric:
