Description

What are the primary benefits of laser surgery? Decreased Bleeding: as the laser cuts, it seals off blood vessels, resulting in much less bleeding. In addition to decreased blood loss, it also keeps the surgical field clean for the surgeon, allowing them to better visualize what they are doing. Decreased Swelling: in addition to sealing blood vessels, the laser also seals lymphatics – the vessels responsible for tissue swelling after injury. This results in less discomfort. Decreased Sensation of Pain: the laser seals nerve endings, decreasing the sensation of pain at the incision. Reduced Risk of Infection: this is one of the unique features of the CO2 laser beam – it efficiently kills bacteria in its path, producing a sterilizing effect at the incision, resulting in less postoperative infections.
