Cold Sore Treatment

Cold sores can be painful and embarrassing, but new treatment methods mean they can go away sooner than you'd think. Laser cold sore treatments provide relief and can dramatically decrease the time it takes cold sores to go away or even prevent them.

Cold Sore Care in Katy, TX

Cold sores can normally heal on their own within a few days, however, with modern technology, that time can be shortened and outbreaks can even be prevented. There’s no more need to wait weeks for stubborn outbreaks to resolve on their own. Or for potentially unreliable store-bought treatments to shorten healing times by days or provide temporary relief. Laser cold sore treatments offer a new way of providing relief, stopping outbreaks before they start, and reducing the likelihood of recurring outbreaks in the same location.
