Laser vasectomy offers no useful benefit to conventional vasectomy methods either in shortening the time of the procedure or by being less invasive. Whatever method is used, the vas deferens must first be exposed through an opening created by a scalpel, laser energy or pointed forceps specially designed for vasectomy.
