I have never heard of using laser as a spaying technique, but I guess it exists.

Less invasive? Then that means things are still left inside your pet. Just like with a human, it's best to have everything removed so you don't have any future issues or surgeries.

When you speak of recovery time . . . Spaying a pet is not like a woman having a hysterectomy.
Your pet will not moan and groan and beg you not to have to use the vacuum or stand there doing the dishes!
A day later you will be hard pressed to even know your baby was spayed.
Of course, you should limit strenuous exercise or rough playing, but the surgery is an every day occurrence in the life of a vet.
