Cold Sore Laser Treatment in Lawton, OK
Cold sores often heal on their own within days or weeks, but the irritation and appearance can be bothersome. While over-the-counter creams may offer some relief, cold sore treatment with laser therapy provides a faster and more effective solution. Early intervention with laser cold sore treatment can even prevent sores from fully developing and significantly reduce symptoms.
Our advanced laser cold sore treatment targets the virus beneath the skin to ease inflammation and accelerate the healing process. This noninvasive, pain-free procedure minimizes discomfort and can help prevent recurring outbreaks in the same area. Patients often notice immediate relief and faster healing compared to traditional treatments.
