Recovery

One of the most exciting differences with the Nanoknee system is the amazing speed of recovery. Rather than the traditional knee replacement surgery recovery with pain, discomfort, and the need to either spend time in a rehabilitation center or have treatment from a physical therapist, our advanced surgical technique leads to a faster, easier, less painful recovery, with the following benefits:

• Within 30 minutes to an hour after surgery, you will be able to walk, with the knee now full weight-bearing.
• Within two to three hours, most patients are discharged, and able to return home – no hospital stay needed.
• After one day, most patients can walk upstairs, and are able to walk comfortably without a walker.
• Within a week, most patients can walk the equivalent of a 5K (about 3 miles) without pain.
