Understanding Cold Sores: Causes and Treatment

Cold sores (fever blisters) are caused by the Herpes simplex virus (HSV-1) and typically appear on or around the lips. While extremely common, these lesions can be both painful and embarrassing, potentially affecting your personal and professional life.

Traditional treatments often require waiting 10-14 days for the sore to heal naturally. However, our advanced laser treatment can dramatically reduce healing time and even prevent outbreaks when caught early.

The Contagious Nature of Cold Sores

Cold sores are highly contagious during outbreaks and can spread through:

  • Direct skin contact
  • Sharing drinks or utensils
  • Kissing or intimate contact
  • Mother-to-child transmission during pregnancy

Early intervention with laser treatment can help reduce the risk of transmission by treating the outbreak quickly and effectively.

How Our Laser Treatment Works

Our precision laser technology targets the virus directly while preserving healthy surrounding tissue. The treatment process is:

  1. Quick – typically taking just 5-10 minutes
  2. Completely pain-free – no contact with skin required
  3. Immediately effective – begins working on contact
  4. Preventative – can stop outbreaks before they fully develop

Early Intervention is Key

If you experience early warning signs such as:

  • Tingling or burning sensation
  • Slight swelling or redness
  • Itching around the lips
  • Sensitivity in a specific area

Contact our office immediately at (408) 738-0800 for same-day treatment. Early intervention can prevent the cold sore from developing fully.
