What is
laser therapy?
Laser therapies are
medical treatments that use focused light. Unlike most light sources, light
from a laser (which stands for light amplification by stimulated emission of
radiation) is tuned to specific wavelengths. This allows it to be focused into
powerful beams. Laser light is so intense that it can be used to shape diamonds
or cut steel.
In
medicine, lasers allow surgeons to work at high levels of precision by focusing
on a small area, damaging less of the surrounding tissue. If you have laser
therapy, you may experience less pain, swelling, and scarring than with
traditional surgery. However, laser therapy can be expensive and require
repeated treatments.
