New York, NY, April 10, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dr. Emanuel Sergi of Park Avenue Podiatric Care in New York City has pioneered an innovative bunion removal technique known as Slimline Bunion Surgery™ to provide patients with an aesthetic solution to bunion removal. Patients who receive Slimline Bunion Surgery™ can enjoy the physical relief of bunion removal with less scaring than can be expected during traditional bunion surgery. When bunions prevent your favorite boots from walking, Dr. Emanuel Sergi provides a cosmetic solution for a functional problem.
Women are more likely to develop bunions, and those who wear tight-fitted, pointy heals, such as stilettos, in combination with genetics, increase their risk of bunions. Unfortunately, women who care the most about flashing their feet from inside their Manolo wedges and Prada peep toes are most susceptible to bunions and most likely to need bunion removal surgery, which until recently, would involve a lasting scar on the top of the foot. Scars and bunions are not desired accents to your strappy, open-toed sandals this summer. Luckily for women interested in hanging ten out of their sandals for the warmer weather, Dr. Emanuel Sergi offers Slimline Bunion Surgery™ in NYC to remove painful, unsightly bunions with less to no scarring.
As seen on NBC and the American Health Front, Dr. Sergi uses a combination of a medial incision and a technique similar to liposuction during Slimline Bunion Surgery™ to provide patients with as scarless a bunion removal as possible. A medial incision, as opposed to the traditional top dorsal incision, is performed on the side of the foot near the big toe. This strategic incision placement minimizes the scar's visibility. Once the excess bone of the bunion is removed and the other misaligned bones of your foot and toe are corrected, Dr. Sergi will used a technique similar to liposuction to remove any redundant tissue remaining from the bunion or created during the procedure. These specialized techniques which expand upon the traditional bunion removal procedure allow Slimline Bunion Surgery™ to produce both functional and cosmetic improvement to the patient's foot.
Some women may hesitate while considering bunion removal surgery because of their hectic schedules. Who has the time to take off their Christian Louboutin pumps between business meetings, flights, hair appointments, lunches, and benefits? The world does not stop just because your bunions are revolting against your favorite heels, but thanks to Dr. Emanuel Sergi's innovative bunion removal procedure, Slimline Bunion Surgery™, you can keep up with the world and leave your bunions behind. The recovery from Slimline Bunion Surgery™ in NY is significantly reduced compared to traditional bunion removal surgery. Patients may bare weight immediately after receiving Slimline Bunion Surgery™ and walk regularly in sneakers by the third to fourth week of recovery. After Slimline Bunion Surgery™, your Gucci boots are only six to eight weeks away from fitting more comfortably and finally, once again made for walking.
Anyone suffering from bunions may finally have a means to embrace the approaching heat this summer without agonizing over the proper shoes to both support their bunions and enjoy the weather. Wear sandals all summer without revealing any unsightly accents along with your footwear except individual style and beautiful, smoothly curved toes. Walk away from bunions and any indication they were ever there thanks to Slimline Bunion Surgery™ in New York City.
