Why should I buy a previously owned laser instead of a new laser?

What is fiber alignment and why is it important?

In the GentleLASE® system, the fiber optic cable delivers the laser’s energy to the slider within the handpiece. The handpiece holds both the slider and distance gauge.

Proper vs. Improper Alignment

How do I tell if my Candela laser is a "Mini"?

“Mini” is an industry-wide term used to differentiate the GentleLASE® (GL) and GentleYAG® (GY) systems. If when adding water, you must remove the side panel, you do NOT have a “Mini” GL or GY. The Mini GLs and Mini GYs have a water tank easily accessible in the back of the machine.

Another way to tell if you have a Mini is by the 12-digit serial number on the back of your Candela laser.

  • Mini GL systems are represented by: XXXX-0880-XXXX
  • Mini GY systems are represented by: XXXX-0950-XXXX
