Laser for Non-Healing Wounds
Overview
Low-level laser therapy is used as an adjunct in chronic wounds — diabetic ulcers, venous ulcers and pressure sores — to stimulate cellular activity and improve local circulation. It supports, and does not replace, the standard management of the underlying cause: glycaemic control, pressure offloading, compression and infection control.
Benefits of this treatment
Supports circulation and cellular activity
Low-level laser therapy is used as an adjunct to stimulate healing in chronic wounds.
Complements standard wound care
Works alongside, not instead of, the standard management of the underlying cause.
How the procedure is performed
-
1
10–15 minutes
Wound assessment
The wound and its underlying cause are assessed to confirm laser therapy is an appropriate adjunct.
-
2
15–30 minutes
Laser session
Low-level laser therapy is applied to the wound area to stimulate cellular activity and circulation.
Recovery and aftercare
-
Sessions two to three times weekly
Ongoing treatment
Sessions continue until the wound heals, alongside standard wound management.
Risks and side effects
Does not replace standard care
The most important expectation to set — this supports, and does not substitute for, glycaemic control, pressure offloading, compression and infection control.
Variable response
Response depends significantly on how well the underlying cause is being managed.
Rarer complications
- Underlying condition progression — If the root cause is not adequately managed, the wound may not heal regardless of laser therapy.
