High-Energy Laser Therapy for Dogs: Accelerating Post-Mastectomy Recovery with VETMEDIX

Introduction
Post-mastectomy in dogs can lead to issues such as swelling, pain, and impaired blood circulation at the surgical site. If not properly managed, these complications can result in delayed wound healing, aggravated local inflammation, and even tissue adhesions, significantly affecting the dog’s recovery and quality of life. Laser therapy for dogs, especially high-energy laser therapy, has emerged as an advanced and effective solution in post-operative care and tissue repair. Known for its non-invasive and safe nature, laser pet therapy offers powerful pain relief and accelerates tissue healing, improving recovery outcomes. By enhancing blood circulation, promoting the resolution of blood stasis and edema, and facilitating faster wound healing, laser pet therapy provides significant benefits. It also helps to reduce post-operative pain, minimize licking or biting of the surgical site, and prevents restrictions in mobility caused by discomfort, thereby supporting a faster return to normal activity and life.
