Lapiplasty Bunion in Allentown

Lapiplasty is a surgical procedure used to correct a condition called hallux valgus, commonly known as a bunion. Unlike traditional bunion surgeries that focus on realigning the bones in a two-dimensional plane, Lapiplasty is a three-dimensional correction that addresses the root cause of the bunion deformity.

During a Lapiplasty procedure, the surgeon makes precise cuts in the bone to shift the misaligned bone back into its correct anatomical position. Specialized instrumentation and implants are used to stabilize the corrected bones in their new alignment. This three-dimensional correction helps restore the natural alignment of the joint and the surrounding soft tissues, resulting in a more stable and aesthetically pleasing outcome compared to traditional techniques.

Lapiplasty provides faster recovery, reduced risk of recurrence, and improved long-term outcomes for patients with bunions.
