What are the benefits of argon laser therapy?
Laser therapies, in general, have more precision than other procedures, with the result being the treatment is more focused on the problematic or diseased tissue. Incisions can, therefore, be made shallower and shorter and result in less cumulative trauma to the tissue. Individuals generally tend to benefit from more expedited recovery following laser operations than what is expected from traditional surgery.
Is argon laser therapy safe?

Some of the potential risks can include pain, reaction to anesthesia, bleeding, and infection. Your wellbeing is extremely important to the gastrointestinal doctors at Colorado Gastroenterology.
