Hello, I am Asian. Specifically, I am Korean. I wish to undergo femur lengthening. Yet, I worry it might look proportionally odd. I consulted a renowned doctor in Korea, named Donghunlee. He advised that it was permissible to lengthen the femur and also increase the tibia. However, I still have my reservations. Certainly, I desire to lengthen the femur since its benefits for athletic performance and quick recovery appear favorable. Yet, aesthetically, I understand that lengthening the tibia is preferable.
Based on the latest technology, eos, my tibia measures 33cm while my thigh measures 42cm.
The eos is slightly below standard X-rays, but the measurements are precise. Only the actual length of the bone is being assessed. My height is between 167 and 168. However, the eos indicates my height as 166.
I am interested in your viewpoint. Would you mind if I opted for five centimeters of femur lengthening?
Please provide an honest response. I plan to upload my picture for a more definite answer.
