Are you living with bunion pain but delaying surgery because you’re worried about the recovery? You aren’t alone. Many patients fear the downtime and scarring associated with other bunion procedures.

Minimally Invasive Bunion Surgery (MIS) is a cutting-edge surgical procedure to correct your bunion through small incisions on the side of your foot. and is designed to get you back on your feet faster, with less pain and minimal scarring.1,2

What are the benefits of a minimally invasive bunion procedure?

MIS bunion surgery addresses more than just the “bump”. While 87% of bunions are 3-dimensional problems,4 with abnormal rotation of the metatarsal bone, the majority of bunion surgery is only 2-dimensional. When all three dimensions of a bunion are not addressed, there is a 12X likelihood it will recur.4
