AMS LGX length confusion

So I was recently implanted with AMS 700 LGX 19cm.

According to AMS website,LGX it expands in length up to 25% (4.75 cm) and girth 10%.

Does it mean when inflated 100% the implant will potentially grow 4.5 cm in length?
I assume 1 cm of RTE since AMS makes 18 cm and then 20 cm size.

Thanks

Actually the LGX is available in 18 and 21 cm lengths. Table 1 in this publication shows the expansion of the 18 and 21 cm LGX compared to the 18 and 22 cm Titan. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5654325/
