How long does it take to recover from a hip replacement? Less time than you might think, with this new minimally invasive procedure from MSK Doctors. The SPAIRE surgery causes less surgical trauma, so you heal faster with improved mobility.
Anyone who's had a major surgery will tell you, it's not the surgery itself that's the challenge – we have highly trained specialists and surgeons to handle that – it's the long and slow recovery afterward that really makes it difficult.
MSK Doctors' new approach to a Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) might be the solution you're looking for, as it combines several innovative strategies to reduce your surgical trauma and help you recover your mobility faster, without restrictions placed on your movement during the healing process.

The key to this whole approach is called the SPAIRE procedure, and it's relatively new, though of course, it has been thoroughly tested and approved. Clinical trials show several benefits over more traditional hip replacement surgeries, and a report from MSK Doctors highlights how this technique allows a surgical team to perform your complete hip transplant while preventing damage to several important muscles, tendons, and nerves in the hip area.
With these muscles still intact after the surgery, clinical trials show that you should have stronger or more resilient hips during the healing process. This was a big outlier in the clinical trials, with clients who had the SPAIRE procedure reporting zero dislocations at all during recovery.
The worst part of the recovery, for many people, is the limitation on how you can move, what you can do, and even how you should sit.
After a typical hip replacement surgery, you normally get a whole list of things you can't do. With the SPAIRE procedure, it's different. You'll have no mobility restrictions during the healing process and can probably practice walking with crutches nearly immediately after your operation.
With all that strength still in your hips, it's no surprise this technique has been shown to reduce recovery times, post-operative pain, the risk of dislocation during recovery, and blood loss during the operation.
Let me give you one last extra bit of advice before we wrap up – it's a simple one.
If you need a new hip, and you're concerned at all about the resulting scar – just ask about the BIKINI procedure. I know, it has an unusual name, but that's because it's a full hip replacement procedure like SPAIRE, designed to minimise recovery times and blood loss, but with one added benefit.
It also minimises the visible scarring.
Of course, no one can promise to fully eliminate the scar, but with the right technique and an experienced surgeon, it can be hidden in your bikini line, where no one will ever see it.
Whatever you decide, don't wait. Your hip isn't going to get better on its own.
The best thing you can do is talk to a specialist about your options. As a new client, that's super easy. You can speak to a specialist, with no GP referral or waiting list, by scheduling an appointment online at the MSK Doctors website.
