Title: Please rate my proportions 5'5" ----> 5'9.5" 165.5cm --> 176.5cm

Hi everyone, I made a little coming out, as my journey starting.
Please rate my proportions after two planned surgeries (femur then tibia) each 5,5cm in segment.

Height: 165,5cm (on midday) 5'5"
Wingspan: 167,5cm
Sitting height: 83,5cm (measured a few times + exact numbers from bone measurment)

Welcome! Sounds like you're starting soon, I'm guessing you have a doctor picked out?

Proportions are good to me, you look like a regular ol' tall person.

So in this picture have u done both 5.5 cm in femurs and tibia or is it just 5.5 in one because if it’s both it actually doesn’t look that bad at the average person won’t notice anything wrong tbh so don’t worry you’ll easily pass an a normal 5’9.5-5’10 person

As i mentioned in topic, and on bottom of pictures. Mockups are for final limb lenghtning (femur + tibia) 11cm total gain.

looks like the same proportions as plenty of 6’2 guys I see walking around everyday just with narrower shoulders. reminds me of Conan O’brien etc and tallish guys in general with the ecto build.

Doesn’t look as bad as I thought and I’m the biggest nut about proportions on here

Be careful and remember it’s okay to stop a bit early if you’re unsatisfied in anyway

Looks horrible. Like you walk on stilts. Don't understand the guys here that say it looks normal. or that they saw naturally tall guys with such proportions.. The problem is the arms that don't match the legs' length.

Looks a bit leggy but passable, honestly at that height you don't have the privilege of being proportionate.  If you work out OP you're gonna look great with that short torso/long legs body.

For the people that says he looks too bad I think you should look at the picture zoomed out/ look at the whole picture rather than scroll through up/down zoomed photo.

If ppl are saying the arms are to short or so on there is always the option of arm lengthening remember with this it is safer takes less time to recover and honestly you won’t need to add lots of cm to your arms to make it work like maybe 3 cm each arm at the final results you’d only be like 4 cm above your wingspan which is very passable personally I don’t think it looks that bad but that’s just my opinion ppl will all have different thoughts about what looks good and what doesn’t all that’s important is if the patient is happy with the final results

People have naturally varying wingspans. He just looks like he has short arms after his LL.

Arm lengthening is only for lunatics amd dwarves.
And having longer arms doesn't mean that you'll look more proportionate after LL, thats bs. If you have a short torso and narrow shoulders then arm lengthening will make you look like a monkey.

Height pursuer you look disproportionate in the pics but still with a longer t shirt you'd look much better.
And becoming 1.77 from 1.65 which is a bad height is more important than becoming a little disproportionate.

It doesn’t look terrible all I’m saying is that your arms are shorter and you have longer legs but like the other guy said it’s passable a lot of ppl don’t know about Limb lengthening so they’d just think you have shorter arms but like I said if the arms bother you that much there are things you can do about it for example building muscle can take the obvious shorter arm look away

In 5 years I hope we could lengthen our forearms, since men have short humerus and long forearms lengthening only that looks unaesthetic.

It’s not impossible to lengthen it’s just not got a lot of ppl doing forearm lengthening because the success rate isn’t that great

Yeah I read a study that it's done on deformed kids arms. I hope we can overcome the complications soon in the future of limb lengthening.

Haven't measured my wingspan but it's noticeable that my forearms are very short, it's only 23 cm or 9 inches. My height is 163 cm / 5'4". Arms down and hands closed it/fist only reaches in my pubic region where typically it should reach below the d1ck.

Don’t worry to much about wingspan sometimes they can actually be a bit shorter for example my friend who is 5’8.5-5’9 has a wingspan of 170

To prepare for the operation I'm currently do the gym and yoga (daily both). I need to stretch a lot and build mass in upper region.
I think once muscles tend to show on torso, those proportions would look like a little bit better.
I never say no to the arm lengthing, but if that can be avoid, i would avoid that. Four operations on legs (nails in in femur, nails in tibia, nails out femur, nails out tibia) are more than enought.
Mi minimum goal is 10,5 cm total real gain (i tend to have long femur 46,4cm vs short tibia 35,8cm) so I need to split height gain evenly between two segments.

Vary smart way of looking at it bro hopefully it goes well for you yeah building muscle can be a vary good way to make the proportions look better
