Laser Surgery - Less Pain for your Pet!
Laser surgery has been widely accepted as a higher standard of care in human medicine for over 30 years. It presents a host of benefits over traditional surgery, and in many procedures, this can replace the scalpel entirely.
What are the benefits of laser surgery you may ask?
Less Pain:
The laser seals nerve endings as it "cuts." As a result, your pet will experience less pain and be more comfortable after surgery.
Less Bleeding:
The laser seals small blood vessels during surgery. Because there is less bleeding, surgery is often completed more quickly, reducing the amount of time your pet will be under anesthesia. This further reducing the potential of complications.
Reduced Swelling & Infection:
Physical contact between the laser and the surgical region is never established, thus eliminating the crushing, tearing and bruising of tissue associated with traditional surgical methods. Additionally, the laser energy acts as an antimicrobial/antibacterial agent by producing high temperatures, effectively eliminating microorganisms.
