Bunion Surgery, The Minimal Incision Approach
Modern podiatry techniques have allowed us to successfully perform bunion surgery in the comforts of our office.
Surgical Technique
Using only a local anesthetic, our patients sit comfortably in our surgical suite. Through a ¼-inch incision and the use of a digital fluroscopy the bony enlargement is reduced using surgical burs. Edema is minimized through compression and sutures are not always required.
Post-Surgery
Following the procedure the patient remains ambulatory wearing practical footwear and can resume their daily activities almost immediately. There is little to no discomfort post operatively and the healing process is followed closely to ensure optimal results.
Podiatry has enabled patients to relieve the pain of bunions at their convenience and with minimal disruption to their daily life.
