Abstract

The main objective of this investigation was to evaluate the improvement in skin wound healing in cats with the use of soft laser (diodes) Ga-As-SHLD radiation (904 nm). Ovariohisterectomised cats were divided into a control group and a laser-treated group. Anatomopathological observations were taken on days 2, 4 and 8, post-surgery along with macroscopic evaluation. We concluded that laser diode Ga-As-SHLD application ameliorated the surgical wound healing process by increasing its tensile strength.
