BUNION PROCEDURE
PUT BUNIONS IN THEIR PLACE.
ONCE AND FOR ALL.
The LapiFuse™ Bunion Procedure
ONE SIMPLE PROCEDURE. WELCOME TO “TOES-OUT” LIVING.
What is the LapiFuse™ Bunion procedure?
LapiFuse is a new type of bunion correction that not only reduces pain and improves mobility, but also protects the natural appearance of your foot and was designed to reduce the likelihood of recurrence (return of bunions). LapiFuse is developed by Wright Medical, the leader in foot and ankle surgery.
How will the LapiFuse™ Bunion Correction system help fix my bunions?
The LapiFuse Bunion Procedure is design to:
IMPROVED APPEARANCE: Bunion correction treatment that removes the bunion and preserves toe length to protect the natural appearance of the foot.
REDUCED PAIN: The LapiFuse procedure is designed to reduce pain and the likelihood of future procedures by eliminating the bunion and maintaining the alignment achieved during the procedure.
INCREASED MOBILITY: The LapiFuse procedure is specially designed to improve mobility by addressing the issue in the midfoot which preserves the joint movement of the big toe, letting you get back to your active lifestyle.
What makes the LapiFuse procedure different from other bunion correction surgery options?
Some bunion correction procedures require shortening of the toe and large incisions that can affect how the foot looks, while potentially creating new pain and leading to additional surgical procedures. The LapiFuse Bunion Procedure is designed to preserve toe length, reduce pain, and restore the natural appearance of the foot.
What will my recover look like after the LapiFuse Bunion Procedure?
Recovery instructions may vary by surgeon. Results are specific to individual patients. During the first week after your procedure, it is generally recommended that you keep your foot elevated to heal. Then, 10 days post-operation, you may be placed in a bunion dressing and short walker boot. After 6 weeks, your doctor may remove the boot and you should be able to wear normal footwear. However, please consult your doctor on recovery instructions to ensure optimal healing
