The\u00a0highly focused CO\u2082 laser beam vaporizes\u00a0cleanly and precisely while sealing blood\u00a0vessels at the same time. Many years of\u00a0experience in medicine and oral surgery\u00a0went into the design of this laser system,\u00a0which was made to provide superior care\u00a0for patients.<\/p>\n<p>Our laser is so precise that we can selectively\u00a0remove only a few cells at a time, if needed. At\u00a0the same time, it is powerful enough to de-bulk\u00a0large tumors.<\/p>\n<h3>Are LightScalpel laser\u00a0procedures safe?<\/h3>\n<p>When used according to accepted guidelines\u00a0by a trained practitioner, the laser is as safe\u00a0as other instruments.

Its extreme precision allows the practitioner to treat only one specific area, respecting the healthy elements around the treated zone.<\/p>\n<p>One can\u00a0also notice a significant reduction of inflammation and swelling thanks to the antibacterial action of this type of intervention.
