View allI'm dealing with a pilonidal sinus and am debating between laser surgery, pilonidal plasty, or traditional surgery. I've heard that recovery might not be complete with laser surgery. Any advice on whether laser surgery is effective for this? I'm feeling a bit worried and would appreciate your guidance.
Both laser surgery (pilonidal laser treatment) and traditional surgery can be effective for pilonidal sinus. However, laser surgery may not always fully resolve the issue, and there's a chance of recurrence. Traditional surgery, while more invasive, typically offers a higher success rate for complete recovery. It's best to discuss with your doctor to determine the most suitable option for your condition.
