Laser Therapy

Laser therapy (also known as photobiomodulation) is a surgery-free, drug free, noninvasive treatment that is used to help pets by reducing pain and inflammation and aid in your pet’s speedy recovery.

We at Dilworth Small Animal Hospital proudly use the technologically advanced Companion laser for all of our laser therapy procedures.

During these procedures, the laser light is delivered through a noninvasive hand piece to treat the affected area. Your pet may feel a gentle and soothing warmth. Most treatments take a matter of minutes.

Laser therapy is one of the most efficient ways to treat your pet’s post-surgical pain and many types of acute and chronic conditions including the following:

Acute Conditions:

• • Wounds
• • Allergies
• • Infections
• • Cuts/Bites
• • Inflammations
• • Tooth Extraction Pain Relief
• • Sprains, Strains & Fractures
• • Post-Surgical Healing & Pain Relief

Chronic Conditions:

• • Degenerative Joint Disease
• • Inflammatory Bowles Disease
• • Periodontal Disease
• • Geriatric Care
• • Hip Dysplasia
• • Feline Acne
• • Tendonitis
• • Arthritis
• • Otitis

Because each procedure is unique to each patient, treatments vary in time, complexity, and overall cost. Laser therapy can be used to enhance other treatment plans recommended by your veterinarian.
