Better
Capabilities Deliver Better Outcomes to Delicate Tissue Areas
 |
|
New
easy-to-use CO2 laser systems integrate with
endoscope and
microscope technologies to deliver custom tissue treatments around
delicate and critical structures.
A wide
range of treatment methods and delivery devices meet the needs
of discriminating physicians and deliver superior results.
| Clinically
Proven Benefits of CO2 Lasers for Gynecology: |
| • |
Minimal
post-op adhesions, rapid wound healing 1, 2, 3 |
| • |
Less
injury to delicate structures 4
— Protecting bladder, digestive and sexual function |
| • |
Less
pain & better quality of life 5 |
| • |
Preserving
cervical volume and structure 6 |
| • |
Very little scarring 7,8 |
|
| Laparoscopic |
| |
• Endometriosis
• Adhesions
• Tubal Surgery
• Myomas |
|
| |
Offers significant benefits over
open surgery to the patient
include healing faster with smaller scars and fewer post
surgical infections. |
