Spot spacing and the ability to program laser power and pulse duration ensure excellent control and precision when applying laser energy. William E. Schultz, DVM, in the article, “Correcting mild entropion with a CO2 laser,” describes the amazing potential for VetScalpel lasers to coagulate the collagen fibers in the epidermis and dermis with the consequent shrinking of the skin, without bleeding or scarring.

VetScalpel laser products are successfully used for incision, excision, vaporization, ablation, and coagulation of soft tissue in many veterinary ophthalmic surgical procedures.

WHAT VETERINARIANS SAY

We paid off our laser in a little more than a year, which is better than any other piece of equipment we ever bought. Plus ... it’s fun!

Kevin Erickson, DVM
Kulshan Veterinary Hospital, Lynden, WA

I love my laser more than anything in the world. ... I am going to be doing more elongated soft palates, stenotic nares, and facial folds.

Adrienne K. Mulligan, DVM
Camp Verde Veterinary Clinic, Camp Verde, AZ

It is now fair to say that various surgical lasers have extended the operative precision, range, and morbidity reduction in small animal surgery. Equine upper airway surgery has also been revolutionized, and there are certainly many applications yet to be developed.
