CO2 laser frenuloplasty for cryotherapy-induced frenulum perforation: a case report

CO<sub>2</sub> laser frenuloplasty offers several advantages over traditional scalpel surgery, including enhanced accuracy, reduced tissue trauma, minimal bleeding, and faster recovery. The laser's ability to coagulate blood vessels ensures a clearer surgical field and better hemostasis, while its sterilizing effect reduces post-operative infection risk. This case demonstrates the effectiveness of CO<sub>2</sub> laser frenuloplasty in treating frenulum damage, resulting in successful healing with minimal complications. Further studies with larger cohorts are recommended to confirm these findings and refine treatment protocols, highlighting the importance of precise surgical techniques and targeted post-operative care.

Abstract

CO<sub>2</sub> laser frenuloplasty offers several advantages over traditional scalpel surgery, including enhanced accuracy, reduced tissue trauma, minimal bleeding, and faster recovery. The laser's ability to coagulate blood vessels ensures a clearer surgical field and better hemostasis, while its sterilizing effect reduces post-operative infection risk. This case demonstrates the effectiveness of CO<sub>2</sub> laser frenuloplasty in treating frenulum damage, resulting in successful healing with minimal complications. Further studies with larger cohorts are recommended to confirm these findings and refine treatment protocols, highlighting the importance of precise surgical techniques and targeted post-operative care.
