A soft-tissue surgical laser built for the practice
Alexa CO₂ Veterinary gives veterinary and oral-surgery practices a precise 10,600 nm soft-tissue laser — and a reason the whole team will use it. It pairs controlled cutting with hemostatic support for a cleaner field, and an intelligent protocol system that lowers the intimidation factor of adopting CO₂ surgery. It is the veterinary platform in the Alexa CO₂ family, kept separate from the aesthetic and dental platforms because the patient, workflow, and procedures are different.
10,600 nm CO₂ — the soft-tissue mechanism
CO₂ energy at 10,600 nm is strongly absorbed by water. Because animal skin, mucosa, gingiva, and soft-tissue masses are water-rich, the energy converts to controlled heat — producing cutting, vaporization, ablation, and coagulative support. Focused delivery supports precise incision and excision; defocused delivery supports vaporization, contouring, and broader coagulative effect.
CO₂ vs diode and Er:YAG
Diode veterinary lasers use different wavelengths and a different tissue interaction; CO₂ gives a water-targeting soft-tissue pathway distinct from diode-based lasers. Er:YAG is an excellent ablative wavelength, but its shallow penetration can mean less coagulative depth. For soft-tissue procedures where bleeding control, visibility, and contouring matter, CO₂ is often the stronger fit because it pairs cutting with coagulative, hemostatic support.
Articulated arm delivery
Alexa CO₂ Veterinary uses articulated arm delivery — the beam travels through a precision mirror-based optical arm rather than a disposable fiber — supporting beam quality and power consistency and reducing reliance on expensive disposable fiber components for standard procedures. Maintenance and output verification are still required.
What you can treat
- Soft-tissue surgery — excision, ablation, and contouring of selected skin masses, growths, cysts, and superficial lesions with hemostatic support.
- Oral veterinary surgery — gingival, mucosal, and oral soft-tissue procedures with controlled cutting and hemostatic support.
- Gingival hyperplasia — a strong, recognizable category: controlled tissue reduction and contouring in vascular oral tissue, with improved visibility.
- Masses, warts & papillomas — selected procedures where veterinarian diagnosis and clinical judgment support CO₂ use; suspicious lesions require evaluation first.
- Eyelid & delicate-tissue procedures — selected eyelid mass and periocular lesion procedures where diagnosis, eye protection, anesthesia planning, and controlled technique are present.
- Tumor or growth excision — selected excisional workflows where margin planning and histopathology decisions are veterinarian-directed. Not a treatment for cancer.
The intelligent protocol system
Alexa CO₂ Veterinary is more than a wavelength. Its guided veterinary protocol system lets the user select the animal, choose the procedure, and follow guided protocol support through the device interface — instead of relying on memorized settings. This lowers the intimidation factor for novice and younger veterinarians, supports associate training and consistency for experienced teams, and helps a practice move from owning a CO₂ laser to using it across more procedures. It is not fully automatic: diagnosis, parameter confirmation, technique, safety, and clinical judgment remain veterinarian-directed, and training is still required.
Anesthesia, plume & safety
Veterinary CO₂ procedures require veterinarian-directed anesthesia, sedation, restraint, pain management, and patient monitoring appropriate to the species, procedure, and patient. Proper laser-safety protocols — eye protection, plume evacuation, fire-risk precautions, and equipment maintenance — apply.
Built for procedure expansion
Sold by practice model: general practices want soft-tissue procedure expansion; dental-focused practices want gingival hyperplasia and oral procedures; surgery centres want precision and hemostatic control; specialty hospitals want delicate and advanced procedures. The intelligent protocol system drives utilization by making the laser approachable for the whole team.

FAQs
What is Alexa CO₂ Veterinary?
A 10,600 nm CO₂ soft-tissue surgical laser for veterinary practices. It may support selected soft-tissue surgery, oral veterinary procedures, gingival hyperplasia, mass and growth removal, wart and papilloma procedures, and selected eyelid procedures — veterinarian-directed, where appropriate.
How does it work?
10,600 nm CO₂ energy is strongly absorbed by water in soft tissue, converting to controlled heat that cuts, ablates, vaporizes, and coagulates depending on mode and technique.
What is the intelligent protocol system?
A guided veterinary software menu: the user selects the animal, chooses the treatment category, and follows guided protocol support — designed to help novice and experienced veterinarians adopt CO₂ surgery with confidence. It does not replace training, diagnosis, parameter confirmation, or clinical judgment.
Does it reduce bleeding and recovery concerns?
CO₂ may support hemostatic control and reduce bleeding interference during selected procedures, but bleeding, swelling, and complications remain possible. It is veterinarian-directed and requires appropriate anesthesia and pain management; it should not be presented as eliminating bleeding, discomfort, or complications.
Does it remove tumors or treat cancer?
It may support selected tumor or growth excision workflows where diagnosis, margin planning, histopathology decisions, and clinical judgment are veterinarian-directed. It is not marketed as treating or curing cancer, and suspicious lesions require appropriate diagnostic evaluation first.
How is CO₂ different from diode and Er:YAG veterinary lasers?
CO₂ at 10,600 nm is strongly absorbed by water-rich soft tissue, giving a water-targeting pathway distinct from diode wavelengths. Compared with Er:YAG, CO₂ is often the stronger fit where coagulation, hemostatic support, and soft-tissue contouring matter.
Is it licensed or cleared for veterinary use?
Regulatory availability and indications may vary by jurisdiction. Contact Pro 1 Laser for current availability.
Does Pro 1 Laser provide training?
Yes. Alexa CO₂ systems include clinical training, onboarding, and ongoing support. Veterinary laser use requires veterinarian-directed diagnosis, patient selection, anesthesia planning, provider training, and clinical judgment.
