What are some benefits of argon laser therapy?
Laser therapies, in general, have more precision relative to other procedures, ergo, the treatment better targets the diseased or damaged tissue. Incisions are made more superficially and shallower and cause significantly less cumulative tissue trauma. People often tend to recover more quickly from laser treatments than what is expected from traditional surgery.

As found with any operation, there are risks. However, due to the precise focus of laser therapy, it is generally considered less of a risk relative to alternate surgical techniques. Some of the associated risks include reaction to anesthesia, bleeding, infection, and pain. Your health is of the utmost importance to the GI providers at Digestive Health Specialists.
