TOPAZ TREATMENT

What is Topaz Treatment?

Topaz treatment is a fast and uncomplicated, minimally invasive medical procedure that is used to ligament and tendon irregularities through radio frequency coblation. It is also used to help reduce or eliminate chronic foot and ankle pain.

What conditions are primarily treated using Topaz Treatment?

Most Topaz treatments are done on cases of Plantar Fasciitis,  Achilles Tendonitis, Posterior Tibial Tendonitis, Peroneal as well as Plantar Fasciitis and Achilles Enthesopathy.  

The surgeon will map out an area on the bottom of your feet where the Topaz treatment will be performed. A marker is used to mark dots about five millimeters apart. This is done in rows across the affected area.

Intravenous medication is then used as a local anesthetic to block the pain during the short surgery. The procedure starts with a small incision is made at each of the marked areas. This is followed by the Topaz probe, which penetrates deeper into the plantar fascia through the same spots. This creates a low temperature plasma field, that allows the tissue to release growth factors into the surrounding tissue. Reducing the pressure that has built up in the plantar fascia, and reduces the pain afterwards. This technique also accelerates healing of the tissue, since your own growth factors are now concentrated in and around the injured tissue.

The patient can usually return to some activities in only two or three days after this surgery. The amount of pain is reduced greatly about one week after the surgery and it takes between eight to twelve weeks to heal. There have been millions of Topaz treatments performed in the past, and the success rate is very high.

There is no reason that you need to suffer from most foot pain.
