Tax Breaks for Aesthetic Laser Purchase Under Section 179
Get the most out of your aesthetic laser investment this year by taking advantage of your tax benefits.
What Is Section 179?
Section 179 is a tax code for small to medium-sized businesses allowing business owners to deduct the total cost of qualifying equipment for the year.
For aesthetic laser business owners, this means that you can deduct the cost of your laser equipment in the year it is purchased and put in service, significantly reducing your tax burdens.
According to current tax law updates, for the 2026 tax year, the maximum amount a business can deduct under Section 179 is $2,560,000. As long as your total equipment investment does not exceed this amount and your equipment is in service by Dec. 31, 2026, your aesthetic laser device is 100% tax deductible.
Does My Aesthetic Laser Qualify for Section 179?
If your laser purchase falls under these requirements, you qualify for Section 179:
- Your laser must be purchased in 2026.
- Your laser must be put into service (actively used in the business) before December 31, 2026.
- The laser can be brand-new or used, as long as it is a tangible asset used in the business.

Bonus Depreciation
In addition to Section 179, Bonus Depreciation can be applied to further reduce taxes for purchases exceeding the Section 179 limit. While Section 179 applies up to a $2,560,000 deduction limit, 100% Bonus Depreciation can apply to the remaining cost of qualifying purchases with no dollar limit, allowing for massive potential write-offs.
Purchasing a laser device in 2026 is an excellent way to maximize your investment. The Bonus Depreciation rate is now permanently set at 100% for qualifying property acquired and placed in service after January 19, 2025, a significant increase from the 60% rate in 2024.
