What is Laser Surgery?

LASER is an abbreviation for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission Radiation, and it is a procedure we use for surgery. The carbon dioxide laser delivers an intense beam of infrared light, which sterilises the surgical site and targets the tissue making a precise incision.
