Lapiplasty®: 3D Bunion Correction in Dubai

At Emirates Hospitals Group, we are proud to offer Lapiplasty® 3D Bunion Correction, an advanced surgical solution that addresses the root cause of bunions in all three dimensions. Unlike traditional bunion surgery, which focuses only on removing the bony bump, Lapiplasty® corrects the misaligned bone and secures it with specially designed titanium plates. This innovative approach provides patients with long-term stability, quicker recovery, and significantly reduced risk of recurrence.

Whether you’re struggling with persistent bunion pain, difficulty in walking, or footwear challenges, our team of experienced foot and ankle surgeons in Dubai is here to restore your comfort, mobility, and confidence.
