Aesthetic and Functional Foot Treatment
Footlift is an aesthetic podiatric treatment designed to improve comfort, cushioning, and foot aesthetics through minimally invasive techniques. It involves the application of specific implants in weight-bearing areas, typically the heel, to redistribute pressure, reduce discomfort, and improve walking sensation.
This procedure enhances protection of foot structures, improves shoe adaptation, and in certain cases, compensates for minor leg length discrepancies. It is performed under local anesthesia, is a quick treatment, and allows resumption of normal activity following the specialist’s recommendations.
Minimally Invasive Technique
Non-surgical medical treatment that improves foot cushioning through the application of implants customized for each patient.
Improved Comfort
Reduces pressure in weight-bearing areas, relieves walking discomfort, and facilitates prolonged use of certain types of footwear.
Progressive Results
The effect lasts for months and requires follow-up to assess its progression and possible treatment adjustments.
Aesthetics and Walking Comfort
Footlift is indicated for individuals experiencing heel overload pain, loss of plantar fat pad, discomfort with certain footwear, or functional compensation needs. The treatment is adapted to the foot anatomy, gait pattern, and patient’s lifestyle.
It is a safe procedure when properly indicated and improves quality of life, comfort, and tolerance to daily activity, combining functional and aesthetic objectives.
Frequently asked questions
We answer your questions about footlift
What is Footlift?
Footlift is a minimally invasive podiatric treatment that involves the application of implants in weight-bearing areas of the foot to improve cushioning, reduce pressure, and increase walking comfort. It is used for both functional and aesthetic purposes.
Who is it indicated for?
It is indicated for individuals with heel overload pain, loss of plantar fat pad, discomfort with certain footwear, or the need to improve pressure distribution when walking.
Is the treatment surgical?
It is not considered surgery. It is a minimally invasive medical procedure performed under local anesthesia and does not require surgical intervention or hospitalization.
How long do the results last?
The duration is approximately 24 months depending on the treatment, with follow-up recommended to assess its progression.
It depends on the type of implant, patient activity, and foot biomechanics. In many cases the effect lasts between several months and over a year, requiring follow-up to assess its progression.
Yes, although it is recommended to follow guidelines during the first few days, such as limiting direct pressure on the treated area and following the specialist’s instructions to facilitate adaptation.
Does it increase height?
In some cases it may produce slight functional compensation or height increase, but its primary objective is to improve cushioning, load distribution, and foot comfort.
Does it have risks?
Like any medical procedure it may have mild side effects such as temporary inflammation or discomfort, which is why proper indication and follow-up by the podiatrist is essential.
Can it be combined with other treatments?
Yes. It can be combined with insoles, biomechanical studies, or other podiatric treatments to optimize results and improve overall foot function.
