I'm thinking of getting lls at 18 5cm femur 3cm tibia, not yet decided how much exactly but thats a rough estimate, I feel like it is way less risk than running a height stack and also my growth plates are almost closed, what does everyone think about that and the surgery in general

Actual meme you’re gonna be disabled for a year and still probably never regain full athletic function + if you have short arms or short torso you’re gonna look funny

you obviously haven't done much research :lul: there are surgeries where you can walk within a few days retard (with crutches ofc), and even walking unassisted isnt a year lmao u thinking of old techniques, even if it was a year without walking i would do it jfl 1 year for 8cm is such good roi also i have 188cm arms so im good, and im lengthening both my tibia and my femur so they will stay quite proportinate, only torso might look a bit weird but its very worth it imo,

height stack at 18 with prolly closed plates
interesting:unsure:
 
bro your plates not closed at 16 also how tall are you
 
doubt it nigga, bones grow till 20is
well my wrist plates are pretty much closed so chances are my femur,patella,tibia ect are closed too, spine and pelvis probs open tho.

High roi and good surgery if you are between 5,6.-5,10. If you are below 5,6 nothing can save you its over for you.

If you’re in the range of 5’5 or shorter getting to 5’8-5’10 will be a huge increase in quality of life

But LL is expensive and you will likely permanently lose mobility and athletic ability.

Also comes with a huge social stigma, good luck explaining to a future gf/wife why your legs are so disproportionally long compared to your torso and wingspan.

haha since then ive changed a bit, 4.25cm femur, 4.25cm tibia. My wingspan is already 6'3 you egg, so I will be perfectly proportinate in terms of limbs as both of them are being extended the same amount, and my arms match. I will have a short torso but can just wear longer shirts and sag my pants for example. You're such a retarded nigga, with a good surgeon and physical rehab, I will lose minimal mobility and athletic ability jfl, im 181cm so I will be aiming for around 190cm-194cm depending on how much more natural growth I have. iqlet

Okay, well I'm already saving money for it, and looking for good surgeons to contact as soon as im 18, but whatever you say.

You’re not even 18 you’re a fucking kid who’s larping hardmaxxing after watching a TikTok BP edit
 
????????????????//
for me, as i'd have to run crazy amounts of shit to even get close to gaining half of what i would with surgery, plus with a good surgeon success rate is over 95% for femurs, and still comfortably above 85% for tibias

Why are you so mad? im sorry if you cant afford hardmaxxing bro, I get why people shorter than me would be mad as I would probably be pissed at someone whos 188cm getting lls for example. Thanks for the input

you can still grow past 18 id check on if your plates are open and run the height stack anyway then consider LL later on

thanks for the advice either way, but my plates are almost closed, so for me it's lower risk to get lls, obviously it comes with its downsides as its a long recovery, way more painful, more expensive, but for me it's probably the better option especially since i'll be able to afford it. Just gotta find a good surgeon and pray lol

yeah I've obviously considered it a lot and I've pretty much made my decision atp, I mean im 181cm with almost closed plates, and I already have near perfect posture so at best I could be around 183-184cm, ofc it's not bad but if I went from 183-191.5cm that is from the 85th percentile to the 98th, nearly no one would be taller, and the main downside - proportions, is not a problem for me as I mentioned earlier in the thread as I already have 6'3 wingspan and I'm going to do the surgery equally on both parts of my legs, and It's not that much of a nerf having a small torso. Thanks for the advice tho bro, ik im not short and a lot of ppl would love to be 181 but it is what it is
