Used Elite+ for Sale: Current Listings, Used Price Range and What to Check

A used Elite+ is listed at $39,000 and $49,500 as of November 2026, on 2 dealer listings for 2018 units.

The $49,500 unit is a one-owner system made in February 2018, listed with a low shot count and a recently completed preventive maintenance.

The $39,000 unit is also a 2018 system, listed by a dealer as in stock and ready to ship.

Two listings are too few for a market range, so read both figures as single asking prices, not sale prices.

The price box above shows the live listings; the newer Elite iQ is priced on its own page.

The Elite line has four FDA-cleared steps: Apogee Elite, Elite+ (2014), Elite iQ (2020) and Elite iQ PRO (2024).

Cynosure, now operating as Cynosure Lutronic, still lists the Elite+ on its website.

Older Apogee Elite and Elite ELMD units were listed at $14,900–$25,000 in November 2026, well below the 2018 Elite+ asks.

One dealer's 2021 Elite iQ listing says Elite+ in its description, so confirm the model name on the console before you compare prices.

Elite+ is a dual-wavelength laser workstation that delivers 755 nm alexandrite and 1064 nm Nd:YAG energy, with air cooling.

Except for air cooling, which Cynosure lists on its website, these values come from the FDA 510(k) summary for K141425, not from a seller's spec sheet.

Elite+ is one of the dual-wavelength systems priced side by side with used 755 nm alexandrite lasers listed against the Elite+.

A complete used Elite+ system includes the console, its handpieces and spot sizes, the finger or foot switch, and the service records.

• Console with the alexandrite and Nd:YAG laser heads
• Handpieces, with each spot size listed (3–24 mm on the Elite+)
• Finger switch or foot switch
• Preventive maintenance and service records

Elite+ handpieces also trade on their own: a dealer listed a 2020 Elite+ 10 mm handpiece at $250 in November 2026, against a stated original price of $3,000.

Ask the seller for a written list of handpieces before you compare two asks, because a missing spot size is a separate purchase.

Cynosure Lutronic does not publish a transfer or recertification fee for a used Elite+, as of November 2026.

Cynosure Lutronic's published US terms of sale list no transfer, relicensing or recertification fee for used systems.

Those terms also say the warranty covers the original purchaser only and is not transferable.

Cynosure Lutronic's service page promises a 24–48 hour technical response to warranty or service-contract customers, so ask what a new owner needs to qualify.

Other Cynosure systems and their listings are on Cynosure Lutronic's used lasers beyond the Elite+.

At 755 nm, the Elite+ is FDA-cleared for stable long-term or permanent hair reduction on skin types I–VI, including tanned skin.

• 755 nm: stable long-term or permanent hair reduction, Fitzpatrick skin types I–VI, including tanned skin
• 755 nm: vascular lesions, benign pigmented lesions and wrinkles
• 1064 nm: benign vascular lesions, including leg veins and spider veins
• 1064 nm: benign cutaneous lesions and pigmented lesions

That wording comes from the 2014 clearance, K141425.

Check five things on a used Elite+: shot count, model name, handpieces, service records and serial match.

1. Shot count: ask for the number on the console, because one 2018 listing says only "low shot count".
2. Model name: confirm Elite+, not Elite MPX, Apogee Elite or Elite iQ, since listings mix these names.
3. Handpieces: match every spot size in the listing to a handpiece in the crate.
4. Service records: ask for the date and report of the last preventive maintenance.
5. Serial match: match the console serial to the service records and the bill of sale; one 2018 listing shows its serial, ELM+1788.

Elite+ weighs 180 lb and measures 41 x 15 x 25 in, per its 510(k) summary.

No, not everyone: the Elite+ is a prescription device, so sellers sell to licensed practitioners or clinics under a medical director, depending on the state.

Federal rules limit prescription devices to sale to or on the order of a licensed practitioner, and Texas requires a physician's order to buy a laser hair removal device.

The closest alternatives to a used Elite+ are the Cynosure Elite iQ, the Candela GentleMax Pro and the older Cynosure Elite MPX.

The newer Elite iQ was listed at $37,000–$59,999 across 5 dealer listings in November 2026, and its generations and fee are on the used Elite iQ page for the Elite+ successor.

Candela's GentleMax Pro, from the 755/1064 nm GentleMax family, was listed at $29,900–$79,995 across 10 listings, including GentleMax Pro Plus units, in November 2026.

A 2014 Elite MPX was listed at $43,000 in November 2026, above the lower of the two 2018 Elite+ asks.
