How Lapiplasty® Works
3 Simple Steps to Fixing Your Bunion
1. Find a Doctor Near You
Schedule an appointment with our network of Lapiplasty® trained providers in your area.
A specialized surgeon utilizes advanced Lapiplasty® technology to perform a 3D Bunion Correction™ in an outpatient setting.
2. Get Lapiplasty®
3D Bunion Correction™
Get back on your feet quickly in a boot and start an accelerated recovery towards a life without bunions.
3. Return to Your Active Life
While traditional 2D osteotomy surgery merely cuts & shifts the bone to address the cosmetic bump, Lapiplasty® 3D Bunion Correction™ corrects the entire bone in 3D and secures the unstable foundation to get you back on your feet quickly in a walking boot. The Lapiplasty® Procedure has also shown low recurrence; 97% and 99% maintain 3D correction in 13 and 17 months respectively.1,2
Why Lapiplasty®?
Bunion Surgery Has Changed
- Unnaturally cuts & shifts bone; only a 2D correction
- Addresses cosmetic “bump” only; not the root cause
- Keep completely off your feet for up to 6-8 weeks

Hiking, running, and biking are some of her favorite hobbies, but she took even those activities to the extreme – participating in ultra marathons — which are running races with a distance greater than a traditional marathon (26.2 miles).
