Minimally Invasive Foot Surgery: Faster Recovery, Smaller Scars

When conservative treatments no longer provide relief from foot pain, surgery may be the next step. But that doesn’t mean you have to face a long, painful recovery or large scars. Thanks to advances in technology and technique, minimally invasive foot surgery (MIS) is now a highly effective option for many conditions—offering faster healing, less pain, and better cosmetic results.


At Professional Podiatry Services of New York, our board-certified foot surgeons proudly provide minimally invasive surgical options for patients seeking long-term relief with less downtime.


What Is Minimally Invasive Foot Surgery?

Minimally invasive foot surgery involves making very small incisions—sometimes as little as 2–5 millimeters—to correct foot deformities or relieve chronic pain. Using specialized tools and imaging technology, surgeons can perform precise repairs through these tiny openings without cutting through large sections of soft tissue or muscle.


This approach minimizes trauma to the body and often eliminates the need for stitches.


What Conditions Can Be Treated with MIS?

Not every foot problem requires surgery, but when it does, minimally invasive techniques may be an ideal option for:

Bunions (hallux valgus)

Hammer toes

Bone spurs

Neuromas

Plantar fasciitis (when conservative care fails)

Arthritic joints

Chronic tendon issues

During your consultation, we’ll determine if you’re a good candidate based on your condition, health history, and lifestyle.


Benefits of Minimally Invasive Foot Surgery

Choosing MIS offers several key advantages over traditional open surgery:


Smaller Incisions = Less Scarring

Tiny openings mean minimal to no visible scarring—especially important for procedures on the toes or forefoot.


Reduced Pain & Swelling

Less tissue disruption means less post-operative pain and inflammation.


Faster Recovery

Many patients are able to walk the same day or within a few days of surgery. Return to normal activities is often quicker compared to traditional surgery.


Lower Risk of Complications

Smaller incisions help reduce the risk of infection, bleeding, and other complications.
