For the Health, Happiness & Comfort
of Your Pet…
We use radiowave technology in our surgical procedures where we are able. We now have the ability to offer your pet shorter anesthesia and post-surgical healing times. In fact, some procedures may now require only a local anesthetic.
Ask if your pet’s surgery can be done with radiowaves.
How Does Radiowave Surgery Work?
A radiofrequency electrode tip becomes energized by the radiowaves but does not become hot. The ultra high frequency radiowaves provide specific and delicate tissue interaction. This results in a focused cutting and coagulating effect, which disintegrates and volatilizes single cells minimizing the amount of tissue destruction.
Healing is rapid and painless with the formation of a supple tissue identical to surrounding normal tissue.
Why is Radiowave Surgery Safe?
No contact is needed between the neutral plate and the patient, eliminating the possibility of burns or shocks. There is no risk of accidentally burning other areas of tissue through reflection or penetration of a light beam (as with laser). Radiowave surgery provides a tactile, but pressureless, incision which allows the doctor to sense what he is cutting. Radiofrequency energy is low-temperature, minimizing the occurrence of tissue necrosis and burning.
Distinct Benefits
- Affordable
- Decreased Post-Operative Pain
Radiowave surgery seals nerve endings as it cuts - Decreased Post-Surgical Edema
High Frequency/Low Temperature = less tissue destruction - Less Blood Loss
The radiowaves close off blood vessels as they cut - Reduced Risk of Infection
Radiowaves vaporize bacteria, preventing infectious agents from being seeded along the length of the incision - Quicker Recovery
With less tissue destruction, healing is hastened and your pet will recover quickly - Safer Than Laser & Electrocautery
There are minimal safety precautions involved with radiowave technology - No Burning or Charring of the Tissue
Radiowave surgery does not burn the tissue, like laser or high temperature electrosurgery
