Lasers that don’t sit idle.
You don't buy a laser. You buy the appointments it fills. We sell medical aesthetic lasers built to stay booked, then we install them, train your staff and take the service calls ourselves.
CO₂ depth. Fractional healing.
Selene treats thousands of micro-spots and leaves the skin between them alone. Patients get the depth of a CO₂ treatment with the healing profile of a fractional one.
What is a fractional CO₂ laser?
A radiofrequency-excited CO₂ laser on a mobile cart. It splits its energy into microbeams. Each one treats a spot about the width of a human hair, down to 120 microns, and the power per spot is adjustable to the patient in front of you. Multiple scanning modes and four interchangeable tips cover everything from a superficial pass to a surgical one.
One system covers a range of treatments, from a superficial pass to surgical work.

Four tips. Every patient.
With Selene, you can tailor safe, precise treatments to every patient.
Tiny, precise microbeams
The beam is split into microbeams, each treating a spot roughly a hair's width across, with laser power adjusted to the patient.
Skin in between is spared
Only the micro-spots are treated. Untouched tissue between them is what lets you go deeper and still heal faster.
Minimal downtime
Safe, effective regeneration with fewer side effects, so patients get back to normal activity sooner.
MicroThe traditional microspot. Small enough to keep healing time down and allow deeper ablation.
MacroA larger spot for more superficial, higher-density fractional ablation.
FaceA small-area scanning tip for work that needs greater precision.
SurgicalFor precision treatments where the surgical tip is the right tool.
Early fractional CO₂ for surgical scars
Published studies show that surgical incisions treated with fractional CO₂ within the first month of healing had significantly better scar outcomes than untreated controls. Some studies began treatment on the day of suture removal. Treatment no longer has to wait until the scar has matured.
A practice that closes incisions and sees the patient again at suture removal, from Mohs and facial plastic surgery to breast and thyroid work, can offer early scar treatment at that visit. Selene covers the pass with its interchangeable tips, our clinical team supplies the early-scar protocol guidance, and we train your staff on it before the first patient.
A new treatment on a laser you may already own.
Carbon Wave is a carbon-embedded hydrogel patch. Put it on the skin, fire a Q-switched Nd:YAG at it, and the patch converts that light into a mechanical shockwave. No new capital equipment.
How it works
A Q-switched Nd:YAG is a different physics from a CO₂ laser. Instead of removing tissue thermally, it fires ultra-short pulses that shatter a target mechanically and leave the surface intact. It is commonly used for tattoo and pigment work. Hyperion Medical sells the patches and the compression optic; the laser is the one already in your room.
Q-switched lasers work photo-mechanically: the energy is absorbed and a shockwave is produced. Normally the target is tattoo ink or a melanin aggregate. The patch gives the laser an exogenous chromophore at the surface instead, so the shockwave is generated where you want it and directed into the tissue below.
A compression optic sits on top of the patch and contains the wave rather than letting it dissipate. Bench pressure went from about 12 MPa to roughly 40 MPa.
The mechanism has a name in the literature: acoustic subcision. The comparison usually drawn is lithotripsy, where a shockwave fragments something dense without tearing up what surrounds it.
- Laser required
- Q-switched Nd:YAG, 1064 nm
- Fluence
- 1.5–2.5 J/cm², 10 Hz, 50% overlap
- Passes
- Vertical and horizontal, until the patch is fully opaque
- Course
- 2–3 treatments at four-week intervals
- Areas
- Legs and buttocks; also abdomen and upper arms
- Consumables
- Patches plus a reusable compression optic
Three patches is a typical full treatment: one per leg, one divided for the buttocks. Single-use, supplied in sealed foil packs.
Untreated control
After treatmentWhat the histology showed
In an ex vivo porcine skin study by Martin Kassir, MD, FAAD, treated samples showed clear fragmentation and disorganization of fibrous tissue on hematoxylin and eosin staining. Control tissue kept its native structure.
This was an ex vivo model, not a clinical trial. The study's own conclusion is that further in vivo research is needed to optimize parameters and confirm clinical efficacy. Ask us for the full study and the ROI model, and we'll send both.
