i think you will look just fine, but some doctors can simulate on photoshop what you'll look like. femurs first for sure since they heal faster than tibia.

you do already have long legs u know that right? and ur tibias seem a good length for your height also ur femurs are long aswell. that makes ur spine relatively on the shorter side compared to legs.

i had pretty much the same proportions as u and i was 5'8 with a longish femur/tibia and smallish torso. I only did 4.8cm and trust me even that is alot if u alrdy have long legs. My tibias while sitting look huge (41 before now 46cm). but we all would agree at the end of the day height trumps proportions, so my suggestion is even if you decide to do it for height dont go overboard with 7 or 8cm because with preexisiting long legs/small torso that will make it look very disproportionate. gudluck
