CO2 Surgical Laser
Report
The interaction of laser light with tissue provides a fundamentally different approach to surgery.
A highly focused laser beam can be used to ablate (either vaporize or chip away) the living tissue.
At the same time is seals or welds capillaries, small blood vessels, lymphatics, and nerve endings.
This provides significant benefits to the patient.
Our CO2 laser is used for soft tissue surgery and results in less bleeding, less pain, reduced risk of infection, and easier recoveries.
