What is Laser Surgery?
It is using a laser which is an intense beam of light that allows precise and controlled cutting. Laser energy instantly vaporizes the water found in tissue, allowing it to "cut" or essentially remove an extremely small area of tissue. The energy seals nerve ending and blood vessels as it moves through the tissue, resulting in less bleeding, less pain and virtually no trauma to the surrounding tissue.
The Benifts are:
•Less Pain
•Less Bleeding
•Less Swelling
•Extreme Precision
•Reduced Risk of Infection
•Quicker Recovery
In Many cases, laser surgery can be extremely beneficial over traditional surgery. Your veterinarian will discuss whether laser surgery is the best option for your pet.
