Tell me more about the Surgical Laser!
Laser surgery is a progressive new option for our clients who want the safest and least painful treatment for their pets.
​
In many cases, laser surgery can be extremely beneficial over traditional surgery. Some of the benefits includes the following;
-
Less Pain - The laser seals the nerve endings as it moves through the tissue, resulting in less pain after surgery.
-
Less Bleeding - The laser seals small blood vessels during surgery, resulting in less bleeding and quicker procedures.
-
Less Swelling - Only the light comes into contact with the tissue, causing minimal swelling.
-
Extreme Precision - The laser enables your surgeon to only affect or remove the target tissue, leaving the healthy surrounding tissue untouched.
-
Reduced Risk of Infection - The high heat of laser kills bacteria and micro-organisms as it moves through diseased area, reducing the chance of bacteria.
-
Quicker Recovery - For all of the above reasons, your pet is less likely to feel discomfort after surgery, and return home to normal activities sooner.
