Laser Surgery For Animals
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF LASER SURGERY FOR YOUR PET?
A laser is a device that generates an intense beam of light that can cut, seal or vaporize tissue. Lasers have been successfully
used on humans for over 30 years. This knowledge gained in human medicine is beneficial for your pets. Your pet's health is as
important to us as it is to you. Advances in veterinary medicine now allow us to offer laser surgery as an exciting new option
for safer, more comfortable treatment. In many procedures, the laser can replace the scalpel and provide a better alternative
to traditional surgery.
WHY LASER SURGERY?
•
Less Pain : The laser seals nerve endings as it "cuts". As a result, your pet will experience less pain and
be more comfortable post operatively.
•
Less Bleeding: The laser seals small blood vessels during surgery. This speeds many procedures,
reducing the time your pet needs to be under anesthesia, which further reduces possible
complications.
•
Less Swelling: Laser energy does not crush, tear or bruise tissue because the only thing that touches
your pet is an invisible beam of light.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR MY PET?
•
Reduced Risk of Infection: As the laser removes diseased tissue, it seals the skin and reduces the amount of bacteria
present.
•
Precision: The laser can remove unhealthy tissue while minimizing adverse effects to healthy surrounding tissue.
•
Quick Return to Normal Activities: Healing is rapid and there is less post-operative discomfort and a better course of
healing.
The laser is ideal for a wide variety of surgical procedures for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, exotics, horses and other pets. Laser
surgery is commonly used in soft-tissue surgical procedures. Your veterinarian will be able to tell you if your pet's procedure
can benefit from laser surgery. Common procedures include Oral/dental surgery; Spays and Neuters; Dermatology Problems;
and Tissue Removal. Veterinary Laser Surgery has improved our capabilities by allowing us to provide better pain
management, less bleeding and a faster recovery time. This means we can provide our clients and their pets with improved
patient care and cutting edge technology.
