With its personalization, advanced technology and unique benefits, this innovative surgery option can help you change your life.

Personalization

A Mako System joint replacement surgery is personalized to your unique anatomy. Before your surgery, your surgeon uses the Mako System to generate a three-dimensional virtual model of your joint, which is used to create a pre-operative plan. This plan is used as a blueprint for your surgery, making it more predictable for your surgeon and you. The planning behind a Mako System surgery leads to a shorter hospital stay and less pain, which creates a smoother recovery.

Technology

The Mako System is the only robotic system currently available for joint replacement surgery, putting it at the forefront of surgical technology. This advanced technology results in a precise and accurate surgery. Once your personalized pre-operative plan is loaded into the Mako System software, your surgeon is able to perform your surgery in a virtual environment before you ever enter the operating room. During surgery, your surgeon guides the robotic-arm while the Mako System protects healthy tissue. Mako Technology ensures you get the best results out of your joint replacement surgery.
