Treatment of Facet Syndrome: The Bonati Laser Facet Debridement
Facet disease can be effectively treated with a procedure called a Bonati Laser Facet Debridement.
Debridement is the surgical removal of torn, inflamed, damaged or dead tissue.
Through minimally-invasive spinal surgery, the physicians at The Bonati Spine Institute perform facet debridement by using arthroscopes and lasers to vaporize irritated and painful nerves around the facets of the vertebrae.
The Bonati Procedure uses specially designed probes and the Holmium YAG Laser to remove pain-inducing tissue in nerve branches above and below the affected facet joints on the spine.
After a small incision is made, a tiny fiber optic camera is used to visualize the exact problem area and a laser is used to vaporize the painful nerves around the affected area.
The Bonati Procedure usually takes less than 1 hour and most patients find immediate relief from facet disease pain.
