FAQs

Here we will supply answers to common questions from pet owners and veterinarians

The timeline for noticing results from the laser therapy or photobiomodulation therapy (PBM) given by the MyPet Laser can vary depending on the specific condition being treated, the severity of the condition, and the individual's response to treatment. Generally, it is important to note that laser therapy often requires multiple sessions before noticeable improvements occur.

In some cases, patients may start to experience positive changes after just a few sessions, while for others, it may take several weeks of regular treatment to see significant results. It is important to be consistent with PBM therapy as the effects are typically cumulative, meaning that improvements tend to build up over time.

It's also worth mentioning that the specific goals and expectations of PBM therapy can influence when you may notice results. For example, if you are seeking pain relief, you might expect to see a reduction in pain or inflammation relatively quickly. On the other hand, if you are using PBM therapy for chronic conditions such as arthritis or degenerative joint disease, the effects may be more gradual and become evident over a longer period.

To get a better idea of the expected timeline for your specific condition and treatment plan, it is recommended to consult discuss the goals and treatment plan with your prescribing veterinarian. They can provide more personalized guidance based on your pet’s unique circumstances.

The frequency of laser therapy or photobiomodulation therapy (PBM) treatments can vary depending on the specific condition being treated. Generally, the overall number of treatments and the times of treatment per day (frequency) will be prescribed by your veterinarian during the MyPet Laser consultation. There generally is not a one size fits all approach and treatment for your pet will be individualized based upon the treatment goals.

Generally, PBM therapy is administered in multiple sessions over several days rather than as a one-time treatment. The frequency of treatments can range from single to multiple daily sessions to several sessions per week, depending on the goals and requirements of the therapy. Each session typically ranges from a few minutes to around 30 minutes.

The total number of treatments needed can vary widely, and it is best to consult with your veterinarian on the treatment plan being prescribed for your pet’s specific condition. They can consider factors such as the severity of the condition, the initial response to in-clinic laser therapy treatment, and any other considerations to provide personalized recommendations.

Additionally, it's important to adhere to the treatment schedule and follow any specific instructions provided for your pet’s MyPet Laser program. Consistency and adherence to the recommended treatment plan is crucial for maximizing the potential benefits of laser therapy.

It is important to follow the guidance of your veterinarian regarding your use of the MyPet Laser. In general, it is advised to complete your full course of prescribed at home treatment – unless expressly instructed by your prescriber. Stopping treatment with the MyPet can potentially lead to incomplete treatment and may not effectively address the underlying condition. It is recommended to discuss with your veterinarian if there is no improvement in symptoms after a designated treatment period, or if new or worsening symptoms arise during treatment. Always consult with your healthcare professional before making any changes to your treatment regimen.

Laser therapy or photobiomodulation (PBM) is a therapy that uses light to interact with our cells and triggers various biological processes. The light used in MyPet laser are combinations of super pulsed laser and medical grade light emitting diodes (LEDs). Light energy absorbed by our bodies helps to start the production of energy molecules called ATP, which are like fuel for cells. This boost in energy production helps the cells function better and carry out their natural processes more efficiently.

PBM also influences mitochondria, which are often called the "powerhouses" of our cells. Mitochondria play a crucial role in producing energy and regulating cell functions. The light from PBM can enhance the activity of mitochondria, leading to improved cell metabolism and increased production of substances that promote healing and reduce inflammation. Overall, PBM therapy harnesses the power of light to energize our cells, boost their function, and promote healing and well-being in the body.

Photobiomodulation (PBM) can be used on both short-haired and long-haired animals. The effectiveness of PBM therapy is not dependent on the length of an animal's hair. When performing PBM on short-haired animals, such as dogs with smooth coats, the light from the PBM device can easily penetrate through the fur and reach the skin, where it interacts with the cells and triggers the desired biological responses.

In the case of long-haired animals, such as dogs with thick or fluffy coats, the hair may create a barrier between the PBM device and the skin. In such situations, it may be necessary to part or thin out the hair in the treatment area to ensure that the light can reach the skin effectively. This can be done by gently brushing or using your fingers to separate the fur.

It's important to consider the specific needs and characteristics of the animal when performing PBM therapy. If you are unsure about the best approach for using PBM on your pet with long hair, contact your prescribing veterinarian to optimize the treatment and adjust the technique based on the animal's unique characteristics.

When using the MyPet Laser, which is considered low-risk and has minimal potential for eye damage, the use of goggles is recommended but generally not necessary. It's always a good idea to review the instructions and safety precautions that accompany the MyPet laser.

If you have any concerns about eye safety, it is recommended to consult with your veterinarian, or the manufacturer of the MyPet Laser for guidance. They can provide you with the most accurate and relevant information based on the specific device and treatment protocol you are using.

The MyPet Laser is safe for home use due to its special super pulsed laser, which poses minimal risk of harm to the eyes or skin. Super pulsed lasers are considered safe due to their unique delivery system, which emits high-power laser pulses in short durations, allowing for effective therapeutic results while minimizing the risk of tissue damage or overheating, making them suitable for personal therapeutic applications.

While laser therapy or photobiomodulation therapy (PBM) is generally considered safe and well-tolerated, there are some situations where caution should be exercised or PBM should be avoided. Your veterinarian will go over the following situations to determine if at home laser therapy with the MyPet Laser is indicated for your pet. It is a non-invasive therapy that does not involve surgery or pharmaceutical drugs, reducing the risk of complications. Studies have shown that PBM has a low risk of adverse effects.

Commonly reported side effects are mild and temporary, such as redness, warmth, or a temporary increase in pain, which typically resolve quickly. When using higher-powered PBM devices or devices that emit specific wavelengths of light, protective goggles may be necessary to shield the eyes from potential harm.

To ensure the safe and effective use of PBM, it is recommended to adhere to treatment plan prescribed by your veterinarian for your pet. Following the prescribed treatment plan will maximize the safety and potential benefits of PBM therapy.

Absolutely, the MyPet laser provides the same proven technology that is utilized in clinics, but in a different form factor for ease of use in the home setting. Chronic conditions often require long-term treatment to maintain benefits. Home use of the MyPet Laser enables patients to continue therapy over an extended period without time limitations imposed by clinical visits. This prolonged and consistent use can contribute to cumulative benefits. At home laser therapy with the MyPet offers distinct advantages over traditional in clinic care that are appealing to the pet parent.

Home PBM treatments provide the convenience of being able to undergo therapy in the comfort of one's own home. This eliminates the need to travel to a clinic, saving time and effort. Home PBM devices offer a more cost-effective alternative, allowing individuals to have regular treatments without the added expenses associated with clinical visits. The MyPet Laser program provides accessibility to individuals who may be residing in remote areas.

At home laser therapy with the MyPet Laser is easy. A few notes on getting the most out of your rental.

  • Be sure to follow the prescription on where to hold or scan the laser, what setting to use, and how often to apply it to your pet. Your veterinarian may suggest some local treatments like at the joint or muscles, but also some other areas that will help with improving blood flow or blocking pain.
  • Treatments are performed in direct contact with the pet’s skin. If you don’t hold the laser to the body, light will be lost and could affect the dose of light being administered. Always keep the device flat against the body and avoid breaking contact when possible. If there is hair or fur in the way, consider parting or thinning it out to allow better penetration of light.
  • If instructed, you may need to move the device slowly or in a specific pattern over the treatment area to ensure even coverage. This helps to deliver the light energy uniformly and consistently to the target tissues.
  • Remember to always follow veterinarian’s instructions, exercise caution, and prioritize safety during at-home PBM therapy.
  • Be sure to review all enclosed User Manual or instructions provided with your MyPet laser device.

If you are unsure about the treatment protocol or treatment technique for your pet’s specific condition, it is advisable to contact your prescribing veterinarian to provide personalized guidance and ensure that you are targeting the appropriate areas effectively.

Photobiomodulation (PBM), also known as laser therapy (LLLT) has gained recognition and acceptance in veterinary practice as a supportive modality for various conditions. While it may not be considered a standard of care for every condition, there is evidence supporting its efficacy in specific areas.

The MyPet Laser promotes wound healing by accelerating tissue formation, collagen synthesis, and reducing inflammation, manages acute and chronic pain in animals, aiding conditions like musculoskeletal disorders, osteoarthritis, and postoperative pain and supports animal rehabilitation by facilitating muscle recovery, reducing inflammation, and improving range of motion. Overall, PBM is increasingly being integrated into veterinary practice as both a primary and supportive therapy in across a wide array of clinical conditions.
