Laser Treatment

Cold Laser Therapy

Cold Laser Therapy, also known as infrared laser therapy or photobiomodulation, is a non-invasive treatment that has been shown to reduce pain and aid in healing for a variety of conditions. This therapy is often used in conjunction with oral pain medication or when your pet cannot tolerate traditional medications. At Commonwealth Veterinary Hospital, our doctors may recommend Cold Laser Therapy for the following conditions:

  • Arthritis
  • Intervertebral disk disease (back pain)
  • Post-operative pain and swelling
  • Wound healing
  • Painful skin and ear infections
  • Acute injuries and sprains

Your doctor will prescribe a treatment protocol customized to the specific needs of your pet. Acute problems like wounds or infections may improve with a single laser treatment, while management of chronic conditions can be achieved with a series of short treatments spread out over several weeks.

CO2 Laser Surgery

We are proud to utilize CO2 laser technology for many of our soft tissue surgical procedures. CO2 laser surgery offers several benefits for our patients, including reduced hemorrhage, swelling, and pain during recovery. Additionally, CO2 laser technology allows for more precise removal of many forms of skin tumors, which are the most common cancer in dogs.

At Commonwealth Veterinary Hospital, we are dedicated to providing the highest level of care for your pet. If you believe your pet could benefit from Laser Therapy or CO2 Laser Surgery, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We are here to help improve your pet’s quality of life and aid in their healing process.
