Dallas Nanoknee™: The Next Evolution in Joint Replacement
- Walking within 30 minutes
- Home in just 2 hours
- Performed under regional anesthesia
- Minimally invasive for quicker recovery
With perfect joint restoration and a minimally invasive approach, less trauma and a much faster recovery.
Reduced need for opioid-based medications and minimal need for pain medication after surgery. 25% of patients take no pain medication at all.
Our patients can walk within 30 to 45 minutes after surgery, with the repaired knee able to function and bear weight normally. Most patients are discharged only two to three hours after surgery is complete, and able to live life normally (while avoiding high-impact sports for a period) and return to most physical activities within 1 to 2 months
Our patients gain the benefit of around-the-clock support from our team through an app easily accessed through a smartphone or tablet. A customized physical therapy will be based upon your individual progress. You will appreciate that you likely will have no need to schedule appointments at a physical therapy center but can easily manage all recovery steps from the comfort of your home, if you choose.
Nanoknee™ distills and advances the best aspects and most important takeaways from thousands of joint replacements done over two decades by Dr. Osuji.

Approximately 700,000 knee replacement surgeries are performed every year, and 90 percent of those patients are satisfied with the results. Most of these individuals can make a full return to their normal daily activities, and serious complications from surgery are extremely rare.
Our Nano UNI procedure is the least invasive resurfacing procedure that directly addresses knee arthritis.
Faster and more complete return of function compared to the typical “traditional” knee replacement surgery, with less pain, and without the need for hospitalization, and painful physical therapy.
Recovery time after Nano procedures vary, but most people are up and walking immediately after surgery and are able to perform light activities the first week. A rough guide is as follows:
All insurance plans are required to cover knee replacement surgery. Nonetheless, patients should reach out to their provider to find out how much their copay will be.
