Scar Tissue is Less Likely to Form after a Back or Neck Procedure if it’s Performed at LSI

One of the largest problems with traditional back or neck surgery is the formation of scar tissue. In the body’s attempt to heal itself, it creates tough, fibrous tissue to repair muscle, skin and other body parts that were cut or torn during the surgery. When this happens internally near the spine, the scar tissue can build up and press on nerves exiting the spinal canal, causing back or neck pain, the very problem you were trying to solve. This is less of an issue, however, with back and neck procedures at Laser Spine Institute (LSI). We make only one small incision in the back and use a tube to access the procedure site. Muscle and other tissue are gently pushed aside, rather than cut through, and tiny, precise tools are used to treat the back or neck problem.  All of these efforts result in only a minimal amount of tissue damage, so the amount of scar tissue that forms is equally small. This increases your chances of being free from back or neck pain once and for all.

In addition to minimizing scar tissue, procedures at LSI are also superior to traditional, open-back or neck surgery because they: 

• Require no hospital stay
  
• Utilize only IV sedation and local anesthesia
  
• Have a lower chance of infection
  

These surgeries are also easier to recover from for most people, and a large majority of our patients are back to their normal activities quickly. LSI procedures are also highly effective. More than 85% of our patients report an improved quality of life within three months of procedure. 

If you need to undergo back or neck surgery and you’d like an option that limits scar tissue formation, contact LSI today. We can tell you about the procedures we perform and review your MRI or CT scan to determine if you are a good candidate for any of them.
