Why Use Class IV Laser in Veterinary Medicine?

2025-07-16

In recent years, the application of lasers in veterinary medicine has become more widespread. Class IV lasers, in particular, have proven to be highly valuable in both therapeutic and surgical procedures. Their ability to reduce inflammation, accelerate tissue healing, relieve pain when treating musculoskeletal disorders, wounds, and dermatological conditions, as well as enhance surgical accuracy, makes them an important addition in veterinary practice.

Class IV lasers have a relatively high power (tens of watts) output compared to low-level lasers. This enables deeper penetration into the tissue. For instance, in large-animal veterinary medicine, when treating deep muscle injuries in horses, the high-power output of Class IV lasers can ensure that the therapeutic energy reaches the affected area even through thick layers of muscle and fascia. They often operate with multiple wavelengths in the infrared or visible light spectrum. Different wavelengths are absorbed by different tissue components, which makes the treatment more effective and leads to a faster recovery time. Class IV lasers also make surgical applications possible. Equipped with a surgical fiber toolkit, the Class IV laser can be employed for hemostasis, tissue incision, and cutting in a minimally invasive manner, with reduced bleeding.

Fotonmedix veterinary Laser is a medically-certificated class IV multi-wavelength advanced laser for veterinarians. It has a power of up to 30W and up to 5 wavelengths, and can be used for animal rehabilitation and surgical treatment. The VETMEDIX veterinary Laser comes with various treatment heads, a surgical fiber toolkit, and thousands of pre-set protocols for rehabilitation and surgical treatment, which enables veterinarians to handle almost all conditions easily and quickly. The featured duty cycle-hot adjustment technique allows for an unchanged penetration depth during hot or cold laser treatment.

Therapeutic lasers have been used in the equine industry for more than 35 years. Now, they are spreading to small animals rapidly. Fotonmedix laser will enable veterinary hospitals, clinics, and horse farms to easily obtain veterinary lasers and recoup their investment quickly.
