CO2 Laser Surgery ⚡

Advanced laser technology for gentler procedures with less pain and faster recovery

What Is CO2 Laser Surgery for Pets?

At Pocopson Veterinary Station, we offer CO2 laser surgery to help make many procedures gentler for pets. Laser technology can reduce discomfort, minimize bleeding, and support a smoother healing process—so your pet can get back to feeling like themselves sooner.

CO2 laser surgery uses a focused beam of light to precisely cut and treat soft tissue while simultaneously sealing small blood vessels and nerve endings. This added precision helps reduce common surgical side effects like swelling and post-operative discomfort.

Benefits of Laser Surgery for Dogs and Cats ⚡

A gentler approach to surgical care

Reduced Pain
The CO2 laser seals nerve endings during incision, which may reduce post-operative discomfort compared to traditional methods.
Reduced Bleeding
The laser seals small blood vessels as it works, often resulting in less bleeding and reduced need for extensive bandaging.
Reduced Swelling
Because laser surgery is a "no-contact" technique, it can help lessen tissue trauma, bruising, and tearing—supporting a calmer healing response.
Reduced Infection Risk
Laser energy generates high temperatures at the surgical site, which can help reduce microbial contamination during the procedure.
Faster Recovery
With less bleeding, swelling, and discomfort, many pets experience a quicker, more comfortable recovery and return to normal activity.
