Histological evaluation of mouse tongue incisions after Er:YAG laser surgery with different pulse energies versus after conventional scalpel surgery

ConclusionCompared with surgical procedures using conventional scalpels, those using an Er:YAG laser with appropriate pulse energies can inhibit inflammation in the incisional area and promote incision healing. The use of an Er:YAG laser with appropriate pulse energies can alleviate intraoperative and postoperative pain in the incisional area.
