Facts On Quantum Wave Laser Treatment

By Andrew Stone


Diseases cause so many deaths in the community each day and this has quite impacted economic growth in the state. A solution has to be sought to curb the deteriorating situation. Among the many medical remedies that have been introduced is quantum wave laser treatment. Unlike other surgical procedures, this system uses concentrated rays of light to isolate the infected organ and eliminate the cause of problem. The light used to accomplish this treatment is quite exquisite with unique medical characteristics.

The fact that these beams can be focused on a small local area helps the doctor to operate very precisely. Therefore, other tissue around the area being treated does not get damaged in the process. The patient in question experiences less, swelling, pain and scarring when compared to the traditional open incision surgery. This medical procedure can be used to treat a wide of health complications such as polyps, tumors and precancerous growths, remove kidney stones, repair a detached retina and enhance vision. Lasers can also be utilized to cauterize lymph vessels, blood vessels and nerve endings during surgery.

In addition to the above, there is also speculation that this method could prove quite helpful in the fight against cancer. The early stages of vaginal, cervical, basal skin cancer and penile cancer can be dealt with efficiently. Due to the complex nature of these conditions, however, the physician has to use the system together with other methods treatments such as chemotherapy, surgery or radiation. The method is also useful for cosmetic body repairs.

The procedure used during these operations varies depending on the condition being treated. For instance, during the treatment of a tumor, a flexible endoscope is required to direct the laser beam. This scope enables the surgeon to see materials inside the body. The thin, lighted gadget is inserted through the body opening such as the mouth. In contrast, cosmetic treatment is achieved by applying the laser beam directly to the affected skin.

The beams used during these operations differ depending on the nature of the job that has to be done. For treatments that require the making of shallow cuts, the doctor can use the carbon dioxide or Argon laser beams. The Argon beams are also useful during photodynamic procedures. More sophisticated incisions require more intense light concentrations such as the Nd YAP.

Using this protocol has very many benefits to the patient. These merits vary with different people, however, the common one include minimal tissue damage and accelerates recovery. Therefore, the patient gets to spend a lot less time in the hospital. This person also experiences less postoperative pain, swelling or scarring.

However, like any other medical process, several risks are taken during this surgery. Among these risks are bleeding, infection, pain and activating the herpes simplex virus that causes genital herpes and cold sores. Other side effects include scarring or skin color alteration. The system is also quite expensive.

To eliminate all these risks, one has to ensure that his or her surgeon is qualified, well experienced and highly reputable.
