Dealing with the discomfort and unattractiveness of cold sores can be a huge hurdle. But what if we told you there was a way to get rid of them quickly, safely, and effectively? At BLVD Dental Aesthetics in Los Angeles, Dr. Daniel Adelpour helps patients feel relief through laser cold sore treatment. So, choose laser cold sore treatment for that smooth, healthy look you deserve.

What are cold sores?

Cold sores, often called fever blisters, are a painful and unwelcome sign that the herpes simplex virus has entered the body. These unsightly lesions can appear around or inside of the mouth via breaks in the skin and are spread through kissing, sharing utensils, or razors. Fortunately, with the appropriate care, those suffering from cold sores can soon return to feeling and looking great!

Signs that You Could Benefit from Laser Therapy for Cold Sores

Since cold sores are a viral condition, they can trigger an immune response that showcases as:

  •         Lesions (blisters) around the lips
  •         Fever
  •         Sore Throat
  •         Swollen glands in the neck and other parts of the body


After these blisters appear, a clear fluid is released as compared before eventually scabbing over and vanishing within a few weeks. However, these unsightly sores can reoccur in the body for various reasons. One of the most common triggers is stress, which can weaken the immune system and make it easier for the herpes simplex virus to emerge. Other triggers include ultraviolet radiation from the sun, hormonal changes, and illness. Once the virus is activated, it moves from nerve fibers to the skin, causing an outbreak of cold sores. While understanding the triggers of cold sores and taking preventive measures can help individuals manage this chronic condition, cold sore laser treatment can quickly shrink lesions when they develop.

Laser Treatment for Cold Sores Expectations

Although there is no cure for the herpes simplex virus, our diode laser treatment can help cold sores vanish 50% faster than ointment alone. This straightforward treatment quickly reduces redness, swelling, itching, and tingling associated with the infection while providing visible healing results in as little as one day. During laser therapy for cold sores, Dr. Adelpour gently glides the diode laser over the blister to zap the virus that causes the cold sore. Consequently, the cold sore breaks down with little to no pain. So, instead of struggling through another uncomfortable round of outbreaks, consider this laser treatment that only takes a few minutes to complete.
