Pet Laser Surgery in Hudson County: Vet Checks on Patient

Laser Surgery for Dogs and Cats in Bayonne, Hoboken and Jersey City

What is a laser? A laser is a device that generates an intense beam of light that can cut, seal or vaporize tissues. Your pet’s health is as important to us as it is to you and advances in veterinary medicine allow us to offer laser surgery for dogs and cats 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?

The laser seals nerve endings as it “cuts”. As a result, your pet will experience less pain and be more comfortable post-operatively.

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.

Laser energy does not crush, tear or bruise tissue because the only thing that touches your pet is an invisible beam of light. There is no physical contact.

What does this mean for my pet?

  1. Reduced Risk of Infection: As the laser removes diseased tissue, it seals the remaining tissue and reduces the amount of bacteria present.
  2. Precision: The laser can remove unhealthy tissue while minimizing adverse effects to healthy surrounding tissue.
  3. Quick return to Normal Activities: Healing is rapid and there is less post-operative discomfort and a better course of healing.
