The use of the fractional CO2 laser fiber technique usually results in faster healing and reduced downtime...
Surgery with medical laser fibers or without laser was based on surgeon preference Post operatively patients were examined at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months thereafter...
Two common examples are the CO2 laser medical fibers and the diode laser While the light emitted by CO2 lasers is absorbed primarily by water, diode laser light is absorbed by melanin and hemoglobin proteins ...
The advantages of CO2 laser fiber surgery are the sealing of blood and lymphatic vessels, sterilization of the surgical wound, no need for sutures, and healing of the excised tissue with minimal scar...
Its long wavelength (10 6 µm) prevents its transmission using standard Medical fiber optic cables, and bulky articulating arms with mirrors are required to transmit sufficient energy to the surgical site in direct line of sight...
