Even the best-made lasers occasionally break, and the parts guarantee on lasers is very limited, therefore service contracts are a must for high-tech aesthetic equipment. Parts for used laser equipment are frequently only covered for three months. Certain laser manufacturers even forbid the transfer of the initial one-year warranty to a different purchaser. Not only are lasers susceptible to normal wear and tear, but if they are not maintained, all cosmetic laser systems and handpieces will lose their dependability, safety, and efficacy.

Common problems can have a substantial influence on the lifespan of aesthetic laser equipment, necessitating repair and maintenance services that can have a large financial impact. One factor that frequently affects functionality is the fact that a lot of laser handpieces stop working after 50,000 pulses. These equipment typically need regular repair that ranges

from simple replacement of important parts like flash bulbs, IPL lamps, flow tubes, broken windows, and cables to more involved operations like cooling system maintenance.
Other frequent issues include base units, diode lasers, broken screens, power supply repairs, exterior shell replacements, and equipment recalibrating. Furthermore, it is anticipated that throughout the unit’s lifespan, routine maintenance will be required, such as the cleaning and alignment of optical components or reflecting cavities.
