Laser Surgery

Rutland Pet Hospital is one of only two Kelowna veterinary clinics to offer the option of CO2 laser surgery.

CO2 laser surgery is utilized for spaying, neuters, most soft tissue surgeries and the majority of eye procedures.

The Benefits of C02 Laser Surgery Include:

• Lasers cut without touching
  This eliminates much of the trauma associated with standard surgical techniques.

• Precision
  Lasers allow the surgeon to be able to perform surgery with more precision.

• Faster Recovery
  The use of CO2 laser for surgery will speed up the recovery for your pet for almost any surgical procedure. Your pet will generally recover faster with fewer side effects including less bleeding, less pain and less swelling.

• Seals Nerve Endings
  Lasers cut tissue with a beam of light which seals the nerve endings so there is very little pain when your animal wakes up.

• Seals Blood Vessels
  Lasers also seal blood vessels as they cut so there is usually no need for bandaging after surgery.

• Seals Lymphatic Vessels
  Lasers seal the lymph vessels in the skin which nearly eliminates any swelling after surgery.
