Hip resurfacing is a procedure that replaces the damaged outer surfaces of the hip joint. Hip resurfacing is mainly used for younger, more active people with pain and disability due to hip deterioration. A total hip replacement is normally not ideal for young and active people because they will put too much stress on the replaced hip resulting in the need for another hip replacement a few years later. Less bone is removed with hip resurfacing than with a total hip replacement and it usually feels normal after surgery. If a total hip replacement is eventually necessary this is possible after hip resurfacing.
