Class IV laser disc decompression is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat herniated or bulging discs, sciatica, and other spinal conditions. This treatment involves the use of a Class IV laser to vaporize a portion of the disc nucleus, reducing pressure on the nerves and providing relief from pain.
During the procedure, the patient lies on their stomach, and a small incision is made in the back. The laser is then inserted into the affected area, and a portion of the disc is vaporized. The procedure typically takes less than an hour, and most patients are able to return home the same day.
Class IV laser disc decompression is a safe and effective option for those suffering from chronic pain. Unlike traditional open surgery, this minimally invasive procedure has a lower risk of complications and leads to a quicker recovery time.
