Cryosurgery
Welcome to Lincoln Plaza Veterinary Clinic in Riverside, California, where we pride ourselves on offering cutting-edge services to ensure the health and well-being of your beloved pets. One such innovative service we provide is cryosurgery, a state-of-the-art technique that offers numerous benefits for pets in need of surgical intervention.
Cryosurgery, also known as cryotherapy, involves the use of extreme cold to destroy abnormal or diseased tissue. At Lincoln Plaza Veterinary Clinic, our experienced veterinarians utilize cryosurgery to address a variety of conditions in pets, ranging from skin tumors to certain types of eye conditions.
Common Uses:
- Removal of Skin Tumors: Cryosurgery is highly effective for removing benign or malignant skin tumors in pets. By freezing the abnormal tissue, we can precisely target and destroy the tumor cells while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. This technique is particularly beneficial for tumors located in sensitive areas or those that are difficult to remove with traditional surgery.
- Treatment of Eye Conditions: Cryosurgery can also be used to treat certain eye conditions in pets, such as eyelid tumors or abnormal eyelash growth. By carefully applying cold temperatures to the affected area, we can safely remove the abnormal tissue and alleviate discomfort for your pet.
- Management of Warts and Skin Tags: Pets, like humans, can develop warts and skin tags that may cause irritation or discomfort. Cryosurgery offers a non-invasive solution for removing these growths, allowing pets to enjoy greater comfort and improved quality of life.
The Benefits of Cryosurgery at Lincoln Plaza Veterinary Clinic
- Minimally Invasive: Unlike traditional surgical procedures that require incisions and sutures, cryosurgery is minimally invasive, reducing trauma and discomfort for pets. This results in faster recovery times and less post-operative pain.
- Precise and Targeted: Cryosurgery allows for precise targeting of abnormal tissue, minimizing damage to surrounding healthy structures. This precision enhances the effectiveness of the procedure while reducing the risk of complications.
- Quick and Convenient: Cryosurgery is often performed on an outpatient basis, meaning pets can typically return home on the same day as the procedure. This makes it a convenient option for pet owners with busy schedules.
- Safe and Effective: Our veterinarians are highly skilled in performing cryosurgery and adhere to strict safety protocols to ensure the well-being of your pet. With careful monitoring and follow-up care, we strive to achieve the best possible outcomes for every patient.
