Percutaneous Laser Disc Decompression at Laser Spine Institute

Percutaneous Laser Disc Decompression at Laser Spine Institute


Percutaneous laser disc decompression is an endoscopic procedure in which a surgeon uses tiny tools to remove vertebral disc tissue that is pressing on a nerve and causing symptoms such as pain, tingling, numbness, and weakness. Rather than cutting through bone and muscle as in traditional open-back surgery, the surgeon is able to make a small incision and gently push aside muscle to get to the operation site. Because the incision is smaller than what’s used in a traditional surgery and the trauma to the body is reduced, the risk of infection is significantly lower and the recovery time is shorter. At Laser Spine Institute (LSI), we have some of the most experienced endoscopic surgeons in the world, and 85% of our patients have told us that their quality of life was increased within three months of treatment at one of our facilities.

We even have a travel assistance department to make your visit as trouble-free as possible.
