At her check-up, the patient’s range of motion is good, she’s active, and she’s back to her normal activities — with virtually no scar, minimal joint stiffness, and very little pain. It’s a great illustration of what minimally invasive bunion surgery can deliver.
What Are the Peabody and Reverse Peabody Bunionectomies?
The Peabody technique is an approach to bunion correction that realigns the big-toe joint while carefully balancing the surrounding tendons so the toe stays straight and the deformity doesn’t recur. The “reverse” Peabody applies the same principle to address a tailor’s bunion (bunionette) on the outside of the foot. Performed through a minimally invasive, scarless approach, these procedures correct the deformity without the long incision and soft-tissue trauma of traditional open surgery.
Why Patients Recover So Well
- Virtually no scars — the correction is done through tiny incisions
- Little to no joint stiffness, preserving range of motion
- Minimal pain and an easier recovery than open surgery
- Cost-effective — can be done in the safety of the office surgical suite
