Out of several laser types available the CO2 laser is considered the “workhorse” of laser surgery due to its unique capabilities in performing precise, haemostatic incisions, excisions and ablations of tissue. The CO2 laser emits continuous or pulsed infrared radiation which is highly absorbed in water. Since any soft tissue is composed mainly of water, tissue at the focal point of the laser beam is instantaneously vaporized, leaving behind a thin necrotic layer of tissue which assures haemostasis.
