1. Small Incisions - The surgeon makes tiny cuts (about 3–5 mm) instead of a large open incision. This reduces scarring, bleeding, and soft tissue damage.
2. Specialized Instruments & Imaging - High-precision surgical tools and fluoroscopy (real-time X-ray imaging) are used to correct the bunion deformity. This allows accurate bone realignment with minimal disruption.
3. Bone Realignment with Screws/Pins - The surgeon carefully cuts and repositions the metatarsal bone. Tiny screws or pins may be inserted to stabilize the joint while it heals, ensuring proper foot alignment.
4. Reduced Trauma to Soft Tissues - Since tendons, ligaments, and muscles around the bunion are preserved, patients typically experience less pain, faster healing, and lower risk of stiffness.
5. Faster Recovery & Mobility - Many patients can walk (with supportive footwear) within days instead of weeks. Swelling and downtime are usually shorter compared to open bunion surgery.
In short, minimally invasive bunion surgery focuses on precision correction, smaller cuts, and faster recovery, while still providing long-term relief from bunion pain.
