Argon lasers are devices that use argon gas to produce a beam of light characterized by wavelength absorbed only by specific pigments like hemoglobin and melanin and passes without damage through many other materials, such as fluids. Argon laser therapy applies this technology to help heal multiple gastrointestinal symptoms, including dysphagia, mucosal lesions, hemorrhages, and strictures. If you are seeking argon laser therapy in Ocean Springs, MS, we can help. Contact the gastrointestinal providers at a nearby Digestive Health Center to request an appointment to find out more about this therapy.
What are some benefits of argon laser therapy?
Generally, laser therapies are more precise compared to other methods, meaning that the treatment focuses more on the problematic or diseased tissue. Incisions can be shorter and shallower, resulting in less cumulative trauma to the tissue. Individuals typically experience a faster recovery from laser surgeries than from more traditional surgery.
Is argon laser therapy safe?
As with any surgery, there are risks. However, because of the focused nature of laser therapy, it is often considered a lower risk than alternate surgical procedures. A partial list of the possible risks can include pain, reaction to anesthesia, bleeding, and infection. Your safety is extremely important to the GI providers at Digestive Health Center. Talk with our office to hear more about how our procedures keep you safe while ensuring you receive reliable treatment.

Dr.McKee put a stint in me after my gallbladder was removed. Did a very good job of explaining to me the reasons why it was put in. Go back in a week to get it removed. Have a scheduled colonoscopy for next month with Dr.McKee. He was very comfortable to talk with and the nurse that scheduled all my appointments was very helpful and explained everything to me until I understood everything.
The whole staff from registering, pre op, procedure, and post op were super friendly and informative about the whole process of the procedure being performed. Excellent customer care!
Good experience
