Can Foot Surgery
Make Feet Pretty?

After years of high heel shoes and other foot abuse, many women are not happy with the look of their feet and are turning to plastic surgery. Is foot surgery an option for you?

Feet Before and After Surgery Dr Oliver Zong, Surgical Director of NYC Footcare, offers several corrective foot surgeries, including corn and bunion removal and toe straightening. Dr. Zong also performs many toe beautifying procedures, including the Toe Tuck, Toe Slimming and Toe Shortening:

Toe Tuck involves surgery on your pinky to to make it slimmer so it more easily fits into pointed shoes.
Toe Slimming involves removing fatty deposits from the tips of your toes (who knew that toes could get fat!)
Toe Shortening involves shortening the second toe.

Dr Zong serves as the Director of Surgery at NYC FOOTCARE and is on the Board of Directors at Gramercy Park Surgery Center (nycfootcare.com).

What do you think about plastic surgery for your feet? I have even heard that some women are getting their pinky toe removed completely, in order to wear more narrow shoes. But I have yet to hear a doctor confirm that is true. I can understand if you are having foot problems, but would you have surgery just to beautify your feet?

I have big feet. Size 9 1/2 wide with 2 very short little toes. I have to buy two pairs of shoes because my right foot is longer than my left foot, very expensive. I have to buy a hole size larger shoe for the right foot. Can my feet be slimmed, shortened to a size 7B and lengthen my little toes? I am much older than most of you here but I have been embarrassed by my feet for years and will not wear sandals,flip flops or heels. Please give me some suggestions on where to go for help. Thanks

I'm 12 and I wear a size 10.5! I absolutley hate my feet! Its embaressing, I no longer wear flip slops any where. Not even in my own front yard. Please help!

I'm 14 & I wear a size 9 or 10 . & on top of that, my feet are extremely wide . I HATE them so much -___- & I try my hardest to embrace them bcuss these are the feet that God gave me . But, I feel bad all the time bcuss I can't wear flats, & all of my sneakers get streched out . I have two older sisters who are 25 & 23 & they wear a size 7 & they have narrow feet. Every time I tell them that I don't like my feet, & that I wanna get surgery, they immediately reject what I'm saying & they think I shouldn't feel this way, but they just don't understand. They haven't been through the same things as me. I just need help ! & I'm so happy to have discovered that there's someone out there who feels the same way that I do .

Hey, I am 14 and have size 12 feet. I wish I could get down to a nine?? I look like I have Ronald McDonals shoes!

I have been looking this up since I was 12 and I wore a size twelve. I would love to get my toes shortened. I am now 19 with size 13 feet and it it absolutely torturous. I have seen women on other sites with size 9 and size 10 feet who say "oh I embrace my 'big feet' and I would never get surgery" well YOU DONT HAVE BIG FEET UNTIL THEY ARE SIZE 13!! and I would love to have just a little nomality in my body (im also 6'0) so yes I would love to go from a 13 down to a 10 or even 11 and have your "big feet" :]

I want to narrow my feet. I have wide feet and I can't wear nice heels like other girls.

I would definately have foot surgery, I have hammer toes and corns. I am so conscious about my feet I don't even wear sandals. I would really love to have beautiful feet, it's my dream.

Yes!!! I def wld hv foot surg done if I cld affrd it. I'm 30 years old n hv bn a h heel freak for the last 15 years. I had beaut feet up until about 07 whn I relizd I ws startn to get calluses n soft corns on my feet. I wld giv anythng to hv beaut feet agin!

Hey my name is desiree and im 19 I dont hate my feet bt I dislike that they are ft and really wide. I love shoes but its hard for me to find shoes. Not day go by that I am looking at someone else feet wishing mines was not wide and fat like theirs. I want to get an operation but I know is gonna be expensive. But I really want it.

my feet are size 8 but they also have hard skin lyk a crocodile, i refuse my boyfriend 2 rub my feet coz i thnk he'll freak out. We actually wear the same sneakers & he says hez ok with my big feet he thnks it's swit but i cant handle it. W@ can make my skin smoother & softer?

I Also Have Wide Feet. I Really Hate Them My Family Members And Friends Talk About Them. My Shoe Size Is a 9. iWant To Be A Size 6 1/2 To A Size 7 At The Most. My Feet Are Short. But They Are Jus Wide. And I NEED The Surgery. Btw Im 14 Soo When Im 20 I Guess I'll Get Them Done.

I mean my name is TAYLENA *

My name Is Tyalena nd im 14 years ol d, my feet are very fat and wide . i always wear a size 7 in jordans , however im really like a size 8-9 . i really want all this fat off my feet and my foot to actually feel right in a size 6-7 . i get teased everyday because of my feet . some of my true friends say my feet are beautiful becasue i keep up with getting my toe nails done. im also light skin and stuff , so i really wanna show my feet and be proud. i show my feet because my pretty toe nails and make a sad face because of my actuall foot :/. I HATE MY FEET . i Just want nice small , NOT WIDE FEET :)

I kinda want the surgery on my feet I'm a size seven that doesn't bother me however my feet are really wide I cant wear flip flops unless their guy sandals its just a bitch and all of my chick friends have really nice feet I want that also my toes are chubby and short so are the toenails I'm embarrassed to get pedicures and my pinky toe is really short how much would this cost??

I have really wide feet, so it's difficult to find nice pairs of shoes to wear, especially heels, so i would defintely get an operation to make my feet slimmer if it existed,
