Solta Medical (Reliant) Fraxel Dual 1550/1927
used resale value & depreciation report
Where the Solta Medical (Reliant) Fraxel Dual 1550/1927 stands on the used market
- Hard depreciator: only about 17% of its ~$120,000 new price survives to the used market — new, expensive, and sliding, the rep's favorite upsell.
- At 18 years (launched 2008) it is a veteran platform; age alone is not a reason to replace it — service, consumables and maker support are.
- Category demand is steady — priced inside the band, it trades at a normal pace.
- Status note: coined "fractional" (Fraxel 2004). Maker servicing / software-lock status affects whole-unit resale — parts may be the realistic path.
A new unit depreciates hard the day it ships — the single best reason not to finance one.
