Main Treatment 01

Noninvasive Microrelease Operation of Trigger Finger Using the Special Surgical Tool, “HAKI Knife”
Traditional trigger finger surgery required long anesthesia times and mandatory incisions in the palm, often leading to pain, scar adhesion, risks of reoperation due to adhesion, and extended recovery periods.

The HAKI knife is a groundbreaking tool for treating trigger finger syndrome, leaving only a small needle mark with no visible scarring. The procedure takes about 10 minutes, allowing patients to resume daily activities, such as eating, using a computer, or light exercise, the very next day.
Conducted under local anesthesia, the procedure is performed safely while enabling real-time communication between the patient and medical team. During the procedure, patients can actively move their fingers to immediately confirm symptom improvement.

For travelers, hospitalization is unnecessary, and the procedure can be performed immediately after consultation with the medical team.
Patients are discharged immediately after the procedure, and in most cases, there is no need for additional wound care or rehabilitation, eliminating the necessity for multiple hospital visits.
All procedures are directly performed by skilled orthopedic specialists. Post-treatment support, including inquiries about care, management, and rehabilitation, is always available, even after returning home.

Non-invasive Ultra Micro Surgery for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Traditional surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome required long anesthesia times and mandatory incisions in the palm, often resulting in pain, scar adhesion, risks of reoperation due to adhesion, and extended recovery periods.

What was once a difficult and complicated treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome has now become simple, quick, and permanently effective. This revolutionary procedure offers immediate results.
Conducted under local anesthesia, the procedure is performed without scarring in just 15 minutes with precision and perfection. Only the transverse ligament, which compresses the median nerve inside the carpal tunnel, is carefully targeted and released without damaging any surrounding tissues. Every step of the procedure is monitored in real time using ultrasound to ensure the utmost accuracy and to avoid any harm to other structures. The procedure leaves only a needle-sized mark, with no visible scarring.

Patients can return to their daily routines within just a few days. For travelers, hospitalization is unnecessary, and the procedure can be performed immediately after consultation with the medical team.
Patients are discharged immediately after the procedure, and in most cases, there is no need for additional wound care or rehabilitation, eliminating the necessity for multiple hospital visits.

Stem Cell Therapy for Knee Osteoarthritis
Escape chronic knee pain with this innovative treatment. If you're looking for an alternative to surgery, this option is worth considering. Using bone marrow stem cells from your own body, this procedure helps regenerate and restore your knee.
Cartilage regeneration can be expected within 3 months to 1 year, and pain relief may be noticeable in just a few weeks.
This outstanding treatment has been legally verified and approved in South Korea. It is especially recommended for those who have reached the limits of conventional treatments but wish to avoid surgery.
This therapy represents the most advanced option to consider before resorting to surgery. The entire process is conducted under local anesthesia and takes less than an hour to complete.

The procedure involves aspirating bone marrow stem cells from the pelvic bone under local anesthesia, ensuring minimal pain throughout the process.
The extracted stem cells are concentrated using specialized equipment to isolate those necessary for joint regeneration and are then injected directly into the knee joint.

For travelers, hospitalization is unnecessary, and the procedure can be performed immediately after consultation with the medical team.
Patients are discharged immediately after the procedure, and in most cases, there is no need for additional wound care or rehabilitation, eliminating the necessity for multiple hospital visits.

The entire procedure is performed under local anesthesia, allowing real-time communication with the medical team throughout the treatment. Patients can instantly confirm improvement during the procedure. The process takes less than 30 minutes, enabling patients to return to their daily lives immediately. It is also suitable for those who cannot undergo general anesthesia, such as individuals with heart or kidney conditions, as well as elderly patients.
