Move Better, Recover Faster with Robotic Knee Replacement Surgery

No two knees are the same. Why should your surgery be? At Liv Hospital, we use advanced robotic-assisted technology (such as MAKOplasty) to create a 3D virtual model of your unique anatomy before we even enter the operating room. This allows our surgeons to plan your procedure with sub-millimeter accuracy, ensuring the implant fits perfectly and moves naturally.

"I was hesitating for years because I was afraid of the pain. The robotic surgery at Liv Hospital was a game-changer. I was walking down the hospital hallway the next morning! The precision is incredible; my knee feels stable and strong. I'm back to hiking with my wife." – Thomas G., Ireland

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions About Robotic Knee Surgery

Does the robot perform the surgery on its own?

No. The robot is a tool guided 100% by your surgeon. It provides real-time data and prevents the surgeon from going outside the planned area, ensuring safety and precision.

Is robotic surgery safe?

Yes. It is FDA-approved and proven to reduce the risk of surgical errors compared to manual techniques.

How long does the implant last?

While individual results vary, robotic assistance ensures optimal alignment, which is a key factor in extending the lifespan of the implant, potentially lasting 15-20 years or more.

Can I have both knees done at once?

Yes, bilateral robotic knee replacement is possible for eligible patients. Your surgeon will discuss if this is a safe option for you during your consultation.

Will the robot do the surgery by itself?

No. The robot does not operate independently. Your surgeon remains in full control at all times; the robotic system is an advanced tool that improves precision.

What is the recovery time after knee replacement surgery?

Most patients stay in the hospital for 2–3 days after surgery. Initial recovery takes about 4–6 weeks with the support of a walker or crutches. Full recovery generally occurs within 3–6 months, with continued improvement for up to a year.

When can I return to sports and physical activities after knee replacement surgery?

Most patients can return to low impact activities such as walking, swimming, cycling, and golf within 3–6 months. High impact activities like running or jumping are not recommended, as they may increase implant wear. Our rehabilitation team will provide a personalized activity plan based on your needs and goals.
