Contrary to popular beliefs, a light saber is actually a massless body. With the exception of air, it does not radiates heat nor expended energy until it came into contact with any material. The vast electromagnetic field produced by the energy arc of the blade causes resistance instead of allowing solid matter to enter and interrupt the arc. The intensity of the energy enables the lightsaber to slice through just about anything with ease. But this also depends greatly on what kind of material it cuts. A blast door for example will take so much longer than a limb. A wound created by the lightsaber is a very neat clean cut one. This is the result of the blade having a high energy arc that simulates heat radiation to the extend that all wounds will be sealed up by this.
