What to Expect After InvisiFoot™ Surgery
This patient is 6 days post-op at her first follow-up visit with Dr. Speer. After InvisiFoot™ minimally invasive surgery, several things are very normal in the first week, including:
• Mild to moderate bruising
• Swelling around the toes and midfoot
• Small amounts of drainage or fluid from the incision site
At this appointment, Dr. Speer evaluates for clinical signs of infection, such as redness spreading beyond the incision, unusual odor, or concerning changes in the skin.
This foot shows none of those signs — it is healing appropriately for this stage of recovery after InvisiFoot™.
InvisiFoot™ uses tiny 2–4 mm incisions to correct bunions and other forefoot deformities with less tissue disruption, less scarring, and a faster return to normal activity. As a fellowship-trained foot and ankle surgeon, Dr. Speer performs this procedure regularly and monitors recovery closely to ensure safe, predictable outcomes.
If you’re considering minimally invasive foot surgery, we’re here to answer questions and help you understand what recovery really looks like.

Hammertoe Transformation | InvisiFoot™ by Dr. Speer
Hammertoes are a common foot deformity where one or more smaller toes bend at the middle joint, creating pain, irritation, and trouble walking — especially in tight shoes.
At Emerald Coast Foot & Ankle, Dr. Carl Speer uses InvisiFoot™ minimally invasive techniques to correct hammertoes with:
✨ Smaller incisions
✨ Minimal pain
✨ Faster recovery times
These modern methods help restore comfort and function — often allowing patients to walk the same day!
If you’re experiencing bent toes, discomfort, or irritation from your shoes, don’t wait. Relief may be simpler than you think.
