If foot and bunion pain is limiting your everyday activity, find relief with PROstep™ Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS).

PROstep™ is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that can help you to get back on your feet faster, with less pain. PROstep™ MIS surgery is performed with small 3-5mm incisions, compared to 3-5 inch incisions used in traditional bunion surgery.

PROstep™ Minimally Invasive Foot Surgery utilizes percutaneous, micro incisions to correct bunions (hallux valgus), hammertoes, hallux rigidus and other foot conditions, which cause far less damage to your foot.

Surgeons have found the following advantages of PROstep™ minimally invasive procedures:

  • less pain2
  • earlier return to function compared to an open procedure2,3
  • smaller incision1
  • less soft tissue disruption1
  • smaller scars1
