Terrible Proportions after only 8cm?!?
« on: November 22, 2020, 12:34:16 AM »

https://drpiliortopedico.it/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/PRIMA-E-DOPO-8-cm-1-mese-post-rimozione-11-mesi-post-op.jpg

How is it possible to look this bad after only 8cm? I'm not just talking his tibia/femur ratio either. His leg/torso ratio looked like many I've seen posted here pre-lengthening but now it looks awful.

Anyone here who is decent with photo editing would he look this bad if it he had done 5cm/tibia 5cm femurs?

And to think there are these geniuses that are planning to go beyond 10 cm while telling themselves delusional narratives "just gotta keep on working hard on those knees" "pull pull my nerves can take it" "epic battle between my legs and LL surgery" lmao!

post surgery from 5'5 to 6'

To me his tibia looks little bit too long compared to femur. But otherwise he looks pretty good. He is almost 6feet tall, and tall guys often have long legs.

Two things I noticed:

1. The view angles are different, both relative to his body and absolutely.  You're looking down at his tibias in the before picture.

2. He had pretty long tibias to begin with.  Probalby should've done femurs.

He literally looks fine. The photo is just shot from an angle pointed up from his legs, making them look longer. I am sure that after he puts on a few pounds to negate the atrophy he will look just fine.

Idk people’s proportions vary. I did 8cm on my Femurs and when I posted a picture of my proportions currently people thought it was a before picture. People were telling me I could do another surgery and look fine. But it depends on the person my legs were pretty short to begin with.

His problem are his tibias, I don't think his legs are too long to his body or arms too short

But the tibias to femurs ratio is alien. Should have done 5 or 6 cm or femurs

First of all, 8cm on tibias is a huge amount.
Second, that man had already relatively long tibias compared to his femurs. I did almost the same amount (7.5 cm) but my tibias don't look that long because they were very short before LL.
Third, that photo is maybe a little after removal surgery. If he workout his legs he would look better. Not perfect but still perfect.

It would be better to stick to about 6cm, especially since he wasn't short to begin with, but still he does not look bad. Just not so normal. But he looks really tall (much more than 1.81) and with some work out and clothes on he will  definitely look better.
And even without clothes, almost noone will see an alien, just a man with very long legs.
People are not like us here to care so much about proportions. I've seen much worse proportions to men that are models and women do like crazy about them.

http://imgur.com/gallery/mKbF1WQ....so here is a male mannequin photo i got on google....and guess what..it kinda looks like the guy that has his proportions in this thread..and i dnt know about u but the mannequin kinda looks great with long legs and probably average arms for his height....and it resembles with the guy a lot..so i dont think its a terrible proportion....but yeah he should have done femurs instead of tibia....that would look even better....so there u go guys a male model mannequin with weird proportions....so i think ppl are of diff. Body proportions in this world..nobody much cares abt it unless its too obvious offcourse.

Looks the exact opposite this guy

Femurs are longer than tibias, and he has long arms, which supresses the effect of short torso on long legs

Mannequins are built for artists and thus have perfect proportions that are probably not achievable even naturally, let alone by lengthening one segment for 8cm

Do u consider those arms long🙄....i dont think so man....coz if i make my mock ups even at 181 my arms look that long and i have a 178 wingspan....btw yeah i know the mannequin has longer femur orobably....but do u think if this LL guy did femurs instead of tibias then he would have been like the mannequin 🤔....and also i think he already had longer tibias than femurs by a bit to start off with.

Nobody has longer tibias than femurs.
Tibias are always about 20% shorter than femurs. If someone has really long tibias they are 15% shorter than femurs, still not evwn close to being equal.

No, that manequin looks almost like that guy.
Femurs are the same as tibias (definitely not longer) and the torso very short compared to legs.
That manequin is exactly like someone who did tibia LL, Alamim is right.

Btw, that dude from the photo had a diary here or in the old forum, I don't remember.
He had excellent results with external tibias without complications as far as I remember.

The location of that mannequin's knees is kind of nebulous, so I can imagine that people would see different things when looking at it.

Yes that man have very long legs like almost all tall men.
But, in contrast to manequin, it has clearly longer femurs than tibias like any normal person.

If an 1.70 man does 2 LLs, one 7cm on femurs and another 5cm on tibias, his proportions won't be much different to a normally 1.82 cm man.
Thats why all these wingspan, sitting height etc things are bs most of the times.

His torso is proportional though, I think if most people lengthen12 or 13cm they ll end up looking weird

Idk here is my mockup of 8 femurs and 6 tibias. Even just 8cm on femurs is pushing already, if you add tibias 6cm it looks alien

Honestly, it doesn’t look that bad. In my opinion you could pull 8:6 (femur:tibia). I believe if we saw many tall guys in their boxers, most of them would have similiar proportions to your mockup... longer legs, shorter torso.

With 6cm on tibias you look even better than only femurs.
Not an alien but like someone with huge legs and although a little disproportionate, very impressive.

As Sky said, most tall guys seem about like that.

I really hope you guys are right cause then I d be able to reach 5 10 basically

Other peopke have told me last one looks ridicuilous, but maybe biased because they know about surgery and are against it
