Used CO2 laser prices by model
The table above lists dealer and clinic asking prices for each CO2 laser model, as of November 2026, from AestheticDeviceMarket used price data.
Asking prices are what sellers list, not what a laser sold for.
Generation moves the price: most Lumenis UltraPulse units listed are older surgical generations (5000C, 3000C, Encore) asking $2,999 to $7,500, while a 2011 UltraPulse is listed at $32,900.
Configuration also matters for the Lumenis AcuPulse, which runs from $3,995 for a 2011 SurgiTouch surgical unit to $42,750 for a 2017 unit listed as fully loaded.
The Candela CO2RE has the tightest spread, from $19,000 to $31,000 with 2017 units at both ends, and the top price on a unit that includes the Intima handpieces.
The same ranges sit beside other device types in our used price guide for CO2 lasers and other aesthetic devices.

How much does a used CO2 laser cost?
A used CO2 laser is listed at $2,999 to $42,750 as of November 2026, depending on generation, power and the scanners or handpieces included.
The low end is a 1990s-generation Coherent UltraPulse 3000C listed at $2,999, and the high end is a 2017 Lumenis AcuPulse listed as fully loaded at $42,750 by a dealer.
Units from 2011 onward are listed higher: a 2011 DEKA SmartXide DOT with a new CO2 tube is listed at $22,500, and a 2015 UltraPulse Encore is listed from $28,000 on a dealer's site.
What to check before buying a used CO2 laser
Check the generation, the scanners and the service path before you pay.
- Match the generation to the price. UltraPulse generations span the 1990s 5000C and 3000C, the 2002 Encore, the 2015 UltraPulse and DUO, and the 2022–2023 ULTRApulse Alpha, so compare like with like.
- Confirm it is an aesthetic configuration, not a hospital surgical unit. Two AcuPulse listings are SurgiTouch surgical systems, including an ex-VA hospital 2012 40 W unit listed at $24,000.
- List every scanner and handpiece in the deal. A used ULTRApulse Alpha's value depends on whether DeepFX, ActiveFX and the TrueSpot handpiece are included, and the CO2RE's 510(k) lists standard, fractional and surgical handpieces.
- Ask for the pulse count and tube history. Good listings state them, such as a 2017 CO2RE listed with 294,321 total pulses or a 2011 SmartXide DOT listed with a new CO2 tube.
- Classify by model, not by the seller's category. Some DOTmed listings file the Fraxel Dual under CO2, but it is a non-ablative 1,550 nm and 1,927 nm fractional laser.
Service rules differ by brand: Lumenis services its lasers only through manufacturer-certified engineers and publishes no transfer fee, and Candela publishes no transfer fee for units bought from third parties.
Cynosure Lutronic's warranty on the eCO2 is non-transferable, and eCO2 buyers consent to Cynosure collecting the unit's precise GPS location through built-in IoT.
Before you sign, compare warranty and service options for a used Lumenis, Candela or Lutronic CO2 laser.
RF-excited vs DC-excited vs fractional: how CO2 lasers differ
CO2 lasers differ mainly by how the tube is excited, how much power reaches the tissue and which scanners deliver the beam.
CO2 lasers are Class II devices under 21 CFR 878.4810, so a model with a 510(k) is FDA-cleared, not FDA-approved.
| Model | Laser source and power | FDA status and cleared uses | Generations and clearances |
|---|---|---|---|
| Candela CO2RE | RF-excited 10,600 nm CO2 | Dermatological ablation, coagulation and resurfacing of soft tissue, including skin, plus surgical uses | Launched 2009; K151655 (2015), K181523 (2018) |
| Lumenis AcuPulse | DC-excited sealed-off CO2, up to 30 or 40 W on tissue | Class II laser surgical instrument (21 CFR 878.4810) | AcuPulse W (2020); K212703 (2021) |
| Lumenis UltraPulse / ULTRApulse Alpha | CO2; DeepFX mode reaches about 3,900 µm at 150 mJ (Lumenis) | Class II laser surgical instrument (21 CFR 878.4810) | 5000C/3000C (1990s), Encore (2002), UltraPulse/DUO (2015), Alpha (2022–2023) |
| Lutronic eCO2 | Fractional CO2; eCO2 3D up to 40 W fractional, 30 W surgical; earlier models 30 W | Ablation, resurfacing and coagulation of soft tissue; 120 and 300 µm spots also for wrinkles, fine lines, texture, pigmented lesions and vascular dyschromia | eCO2 (2009), eCO2 Plus (2011), eCO2 3D (2025) |
| DEKA SmartXide DOT | CO2, 30 W (as listed) | Not in our data | A 2011 unit is listed |
Er:YAG lasers such as the Dynamis Er:YAG work at 2,940 nm instead, and non-ablative fractional lasers such as the Fraxel Dual use 1,550 nm and 1,927 nm, so neither belongs on this page.
Most-listed CO2 laser models
The Lumenis UltraPulse and Lumenis AcuPulse are the most-listed CO2 lasers in our November 2026 price data, with 6 asking prices each.
UltraPulse asking prices run from $2,999 to $32,900 across five sellers, and AcuPulse asking prices from $3,995 to $42,750 across six sellers.
The Candela CO2RE has 5 in-stock listings from 3 sellers, asking $19,000 to $31,000.
The Lutronic eCO2 had no priced system listing in November 2026, only tips, so we publish no range for it.
If you are still choosing a platform, our 2026 picks of CO2 lasers for clinics ranks them by price and running cost.
Running costs: consumables and service
CO2 laser running costs come from service, replacement tips and any disposable handpieces.
Cynosure Lutronic says the eCO2 3D has zero per-treatment consumables, with reusable 120, 300 and 500 µm tips that are still sold as parts.
The CO2RE Intima vaginal handpieces are separate disposable accessories, so budget for them if you plan to offer that treatment.
Lumenis sells service plans covering parts, accessories, labor and travel, delivered only by its certified engineers.

Used CO2 lasers questions
Is a CO2 laser FDA-approved?
No, aesthetic CO2 lasers are FDA-cleared, not FDA-approved.
They are Class II devices under 21 CFR 878.4810 and reach the market through a 510(k) clearance.
Is the Fraxel Dual a CO2 laser?
No, the Fraxel Dual is a non-ablative 1,550 nm and 1,927 nm fractional laser, even though some DOTmed listings file it under CO2. Compare it with other fractional lasers, not with CO2 systems.
Does Lumenis charge a transfer fee on a used UltraPulse or AcuPulse?
Lumenis does not publish a transfer, relicensing or recertification fee for pre-owned systems.
Its service is provided only by manufacturer-certified engineers, so ask Lumenis for a service quote before you buy.
Which handpieces must a used CO2 laser include?
It depends on the model: the CO2RE's 510(k) lists standard, fractional and surgical handpieces, and an ULTRApulse Alpha's value depends on whether DeepFX, ActiveFX and TrueSpot are included.
