This BBC special features a flexible fiber CO2 laser surgery on a sea turtle. Large skin tumors caused by fibroma pillomatosis are excised with the laser beam. The video highlights the key points of the CO2 laser surgery, such as non-contact cutting (to prevent contaminating the wound) and excellent hemostasis.

What Veterinarians Are Saying
Surgical laser is a good addition to our busy practice. The best of all is your local representative, who is a great help to learn the proper use of laser. This has provided us a good opportunity to learn quick and use the equipment every day.
