Traditional open surgery requires big skin incisions (5-10 cm), joint opening, metal fixation for bone correction that creates injury to the bones and the soft tissue. Conversely,\u00a0 MIS uses small skin punctures with less tissue damage and a faster recovery time. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No metal elements are left after a surgery in the foot.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Less pain<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 MIS uses a less traumatic way of the treatment, therefore MIS patients have less pain after the surgery and require less painkillers.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Shorter surgery time<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 MIS often needs less time than traditional surgery because MIS does not need metal (screws, others) bone permanent fixation, surgical wound repairment.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Less scaring<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 minimally invasive foot surgery uses smaller skin punctures so scars left after MIS are small and less noticeable.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Less\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-family: GothamRounded-Medium;\"><b>anaesthesia<\/b><\/span> &#8211; There is no need for general anaesthesia for MIS. We use regional anaesthesia (ankle block) under ultrasound control for precise and effective painless treatment. This also decreases a general anaesthesia risk. Ankle block lasts up to 5-6 hours which is an additional benefit for our Patients.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Recovery from the procedure<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Immediately after the MIS treatment you will start wearing non expensive post-operative only for 7-10 days, then you will need to wear regular shoes with a wide toe box for 3-5 weeks.
