Bunions can be more than just a cosmetic concern—they often lead to significant discomfort, inflammation, and mobility issues. In fact, millions of people suffer silently with bunions each year, avoiding treatment due to fear of long, painful recoveries or outdated surgical techniques. At Podiatry of Greater Cleveland, Dr. Grace Craig is proud to offer an exciting new alternative: the Bunionplasty® 360 Bunion Repair™. This innovative, minimally invasive procedure is changing the way bunions are treated and restoring comfort to countless patients.
What is Bunionplasty® 360 Bunion Repair™?
The Bunionplasty® 360 Bunion Repair™ is a state-of-the-art surgical technique designed to correct bunions while preserving the natural structure of the foot. Unlike traditional bunion surgery, which involves large incisions, extensive bone cutting, and long periods of downtime, Bunionplasty® uses small incisions and advanced instrumentation to realign the bone with minimal tissue disruption.
Benefits of Bunionplasty® 360:
- ✔ Immediate weight-bearing: Most patients can walk on the same day of surgery while wearing a small surgical sandal.
- ✔ No casts or crutches required: Thanks to the precision and minimal invasiveness of the procedure, bulky supports are unnecessary.
- ✔ Smaller, less noticeable scars: Tiny incisions mean faster healing and better cosmetic results.
- ✔ Faster return to activity: Many people are back to work, exercise, and regular routines in just weeks.
- ✔ Preservation of joint mobility: The procedure is designed to maintain the natural function and movement of the big toe.

Is Bunionplasty® Right for You?
Not every bunion requires surgery, but if you’re experiencing chronic pain, difficulty finding comfortable shoes, or your bunion is affecting your quality of life, it’s time to consider your options. During your consultation, Dr. Craig will evaluate the severity of your bunion, review your medical history, and determine whether Bunionplasty® 360 is the best solution for you.
This procedure is ideal for patients looking for:
- Less downtime
- Minimal scarring
- A natural-looking result
- Long-term relief from bunion pain
What to Expect During and After the Procedure
The Bunionplasty® procedure is performed on an outpatient basis, often under local anesthesia. Most patients are in and out the same day, returning home to rest and begin recovery immediately. Pain is typically mild and can be managed with over-the-counter medications.
Post-surgical care includes:
- Wearing a protective surgical sandal
- Light walking from day one
- Follow-up appointments to monitor healing
Because the bones are carefully repositioned and stabilized using specialized implants, the recovery process is both quicker and more comfortable than traditional methods.
