Laser Surgery

---

Laser surgery uses special light beams instead of instruments for surgical procedures, and can offer an alternative to traditional surgery for a number of medical concerns. Laser surgery poses a minimal risk of infection, causes less trauma to tissues and can offer a quicker recovery for patients.

With more than a dozen different lasers tailored to treat specific medical conditions, Merit Health Rankin offers laser surgery for:

• Kidney stone removal
• Eye surgery
• Tumor removal
• Various oral, gynecological, ear, nose and throat conditions

Laser techniques are also used in a variety of cosmetic procedures.
