Laser Surgery
Laser can remove small skin tumors from the skin. First the tumor is numbed with carbocaine. Then it is ablated with the laser. The laser seals blood vessels, seals nerve endings and sterilizes the area as it works. Many pets do not need to be sedated or anesthetized for this procedure. This method is ideal for pets that need to have problematic tumors removed, but also need to avoid general anesthesia.
