In Bunion
Treatment
Mifoot Bunion Surgery procedures take traditional concepts of bunion treatment and transforms them into a minimally invasive approach.
Instead of using large incisions to make bone cuts, surgeons use specific instrumentation to achieve the same correction through tiny incisions.

Bunions are predominately caused by tight and narrow shoes, which commonly impact women. They also have a genetic predisposition.
