Laser surgery
Okay kiddo, have you ever played with a flashlight and noticed how you can point it at things and make a bright light beam? Well, imagine that bright light beam being even more powerful and able to do a special job like helping fix our eyes or skin.
That's what laser surgery is all about! Instead of using a regular knife or tool for surgery, doctors use a special type of light beam called a laser. This light beam is super strong and can cut or burn away things in a very precise way.
For example, if someone needs surgery to fix their eyesight, the doctor might use a special laser beam to gently reshape the person's eye. The laser can make tiny adjustments that help the person see better without needing eyeglasses or contacts.
Or, if someone has a birthmark or scar that they don't like, a doctor might use a laser beam to gently remove the mark or make the scar look better. It's like a magic wand that can make things disappear or change in a cool way!
But don't worry, kiddo: during laser surgery, you'll be given special medicine to help you feel relaxed and comfortable. And the doctors and nurses will be right there with you, making sure everything goes smoothly. Lasers are just one cool tool that doctors can use to help us feel better and look our best!
