Don't miss Dr. JP McAleer, a foot specialist from Jefferson City, MO, explain post-operative foot shortening after Lapiplasty® 3D Bunion CorrectionTM.
While we have not studied postoperative change in shoe size, we do have studies indicating that there is minimal shortening of the 1st ray (big toe), with average shortening of 2.4-3.1mm1 (approximately the thickness of two pennies stacked together). Our studies also show that your toe gets significantly straighter and the bony width of your foot is reduced by over 10 mm on average at 5 months or after following the Lapiplasty® Procedure.2
Lapiplasty® 3D Bunion CorrectionTM features patented, advanced technology designed to correct all three dimensions of the bunion at the root of the problem, an unstable joint. This surgical technology returns your entire bone to normal 3D alignment and the unstable joint is secured with patented, titanium plates to get you back on your feet quickly (typically within 3-10 days in a walking boot).3,4,5
