Laser surgery...a less painful alternative for your cat
We are proud to offer laser surgery as a progressive new service for our clients who want the safest and least painful treatment for their cat.
Long used in human healthcare, laser technology is a proven service with multiple applications. Only recently have veterinarians turned to laser surgery and we are proud to be on the leading edge of advanced animal care.
The Benefits
Less pain - the laser seals nerve endings as it moves through tissue. Your cat will feel less pain after surgery.
Less bleeding - the laser seals small blood vessels during surgery, resulting in less bleeding and quicker procedures.
Less swelling - with laser technology, only 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 energy kills bacteria and microorganisms as it moves through the body tissue, reducing the chance of infection.
Quicker recovery - for all of the above reasons, your cat is likely to feel less discomfort after surgery and return home to normal activities sooner.
How it works
A laser is an intense beam of light. Using an instrument that allows it to be precisely controlled, the laser beam replaces the traditional scalpel.
Laser energy instantly vaporizes the water found in tissues, allowing it to "cut" or essentially remove an extremely small area of tissue, resulting in less pain and virtually no trauma to surrounding tissue.
