Height Increase

Is limb lengthening surgery safe? If not, what are the serious complications and how can they be avoided? If I decide to get it done how many inches can I grow? Will I see the results immediately after the surgery? I’m 5’3. Can I get to 5’8 or 5’9? Will I able to walk, run and workout normally after the surgery?
