Am I still a candidate for Laser Spine Surgery if I have had previous failed back surgery

?

A question that is often asked by people who are looking for a solution to a common problem is, 'Am I still a candidate for Laser Spine Surgery if I have had previous failed back surgery' The answer to this question is usually a resounding 'Yes' due to the fact that unlike traditional surgery or invasive surgery as it is often called, laser spine surgery doesn't involve any pain and recovery time is usually less than 24 hours which usually means that you will soon be back to normal and it can usually be performed when there is evidence of scar tissue from the previous surgery.

It should not be seen as some kind of magic wand treatment though. Not all types of spine surgery is suitable for the laser alternative and you should be guided by the expert advice of your surgeon to ensure that this is the ideal solution for you. There are many factors for your surgeon to take into consideration when making a decision as to whether laser spine surgery is suitable including the problem itself along with the reasons for which the previous invasive back surgery failed.

If it is deemed as being suitable, you will be surprised by the difference between laser spine surgery and the invasive surgery that you went through which hasn't turned out to be as successful as was initially hoped. The main difference is that there is usually no pain at all. All that is required is a local anaesthetic and as already mentioned, minimal recovery time is required which means that the person who is undergoing the laser surgery can soon get back to normal with regards to getting back to work etc.

It is also estimated that the cost of laser spine surgery is around half of the cost of the more traditional type of spine surgery so it is definitely an alternative that many people would prefer if they had the choice as the costs of surgery of any type can soon mount up.

It is often worth mentioning to your surgeon if, in his or her opinion, laser surgery would be suitable for your particular problem, it may be the case that this form of treatment is not even considered but if you make it clear that you would prefer laser surgery if possible, then there may be a way forward that could be considered as a solution for you.
