Hi and welcome to HCM,
Yes, laser surgery is recommended for anal fissure.
Carbon dioxide laser surgery can be done. Laser vaporization of the fissure locally. The internal sphincter can be incised using this laser. In long-standing fissures, some degree of anal stenosis is present. It can be used to give relieving incisions in the three quadrants other than the fissure before the fissure is attended.
Wish you speedy recovery
thanks
