The Clarity II by Cynosure Lutronic - Why It Matters
Not all laser hair removal clinics in Montreal use the same technology. At Institut V Esthétique, we invested in the Clarity II by Cynosure Lutronic, a medical-grade dual-wavelength laser system at the forefront of hair removal innovation.
Dual Wavelength for Every Skin Type
The Clarity II combines two complementary wavelengths:
- Alexandrite 755 nm: ideal for fair to medium skin (phototypes I-III). Targets superficial melanin in the follicle with surgical precision.
- Nd:YAG 1064 nm: designed specifically for darker skin tones (phototypes IV-VI). Penetrates deeper into the dermis, targeting the follicle without affecting surface melanin. Safe and effective for Black, Arab, South Asian, and Mediterranean skin tones.
This versatility makes the Clarity II the ideal choice for Montreal's diverse population. Whatever your skin tone, we can treat you safely and effectively.
Built-in Cooling System
The Clarity II features an advanced integrated cooling system that protects the epidermis and keeps your session comfortable. Most clients describe the sensation as a mild snap, far less uncomfortable than waxing.
Certifications and Safety
The Clarity II is certified by Health Canada and approved by the US FDA. Every treatment at Institut V is performed by certified estheticians trained specifically on the Clarity II.
Speed
Variable spot size and high repetition rate. Underarms in 10 minutes, full legs in approximately 45 minutes.
Precision
Targets only the hair follicle without affecting the surrounding skin tissue.
Versatility
Also treats pigmentation and photorejuvenation. Effective on all Fitzpatrick phototypes I-VI.
Your Laser Hair Removal Journey at Institut V
From your first consultation to permanent smooth skin, here is what your experience at Institut V looks like.
Free Consultation ($0)
Your journey starts with a personalized consultation. Our certified estheticians assess your skin type using the Fitzpatrick scale, review your hair removal history, identify treatment zones, and build a custom plan. No commitment required.
Preparing for Your Session
Shave the treatment area 24 hours before your appointment. Avoid sun exposure for 2 weeks before. Stop waxing, threading, or tweezing at least 4 weeks before. The hair follicle must be intact for the laser to target it effectively.
Treatment with the Clarity II
The Clarity II is calibrated for your phototype and treatment zone. The integrated cooling system keeps you comfortable throughout. Sessions range from 10 minutes (underarms) to 60 minutes (full legs).
Aftercare and Follow-up Sessions
A soothing cream is applied after treatment. You can return to normal activities immediately. Sessions are spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. After 6 to 8 sessions, hair reduction is permanent for most clients.

Frequently Asked Questions - Laser Hair Removal in Montreal
How many sessions does it take to get permanent results?
6 to 8 sessions are generally needed for permanent hair reduction. Hair grows in cycles (anagen, catagen, telogen), and the laser only targets follicles in the active growth phase (anagen). Sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart ensure all follicles are treated. After a full course, 80 to 90 percent of hair is permanently eliminated.
Is laser hair removal painful?
With the Clarity II and its integrated cooling system, discomfort is minimal. Most clients describe the sensation as a mild snap, far less uncomfortable than waxing. Sensitive areas (bikini, face) may be slightly more noticeable but remain very tolerable.
Does laser hair removal work on dark skin?
Yes. The Nd:YAG 1064 nm wavelength on the Clarity II is specifically designed to treat phototypes IV through VI (medium-dark, dark, and very dark skin) safely. It penetrates deeper and bypasses surface melanin, eliminating the risk of burns or hyperpigmentation. Institut V is one of the few Montreal clinics equipped to safely treat all skin types.
What is the cost of laser hair removal in Montreal?
At Institut V, prices start at $50 per session (abdomen). Underarms: $55, face: $100, full bikini: $125, full legs: $245, back: $150 (women) / $170 (men), half-arms: $90, full arms: $125. Our $119 promo includes bikini, underarms, and intergluteal zone plus a gift - the best value in Montreal.
What is the best season to start laser hair removal?
Fall and winter are ideal because sun exposure is lower. That said, treatment is possible year-round with the Clarity II. We simply recommend avoiding direct sun exposure 2 weeks before and after each session.
What is the difference between laser and IPL?
Laser (like the Clarity II) emits a single concentrated wavelength targeting the hair follicle precisely. IPL (intense pulsed light) scatters a broad spectrum that is less targeted. Result: laser is more effective, requires fewer sessions, and delivers longer-lasting results. The Clarity II combines two wavelengths (Alexandrite 755 nm plus Nd:YAG 1064 nm) for superior efficacy over any IPL system.
Which body areas do you treat?
All areas: face (upper lip, chin, cheeks, sideburns), body (underarms, arms, back, chest, abdomen, torso), legs (full legs, half legs, thighs), and intimate zones (bikini, full bikini, intergluteal). Ask during your free consultation for a complete zone list.
How do I prepare for my first session?
Shave the area 24 hours before. Stop waxing, threading, and tweezing 4 weeks before. Avoid sun exposure and self-tanning products 2 weeks before. Do not apply any product (cream, deodorant, makeup) on the treatment zone on the day of your appointment.
Are the results truly permanent?
Yes. After a complete series, hair reduction is permanent for 80 to 90 percent of treated follicles. Occasional maintenance sessions may be recommended for fine residual hairs. Hormonal changes (pregnancy, menopause, PCOS) can occasionally stimulate new follicles, requiring touch-ups.
Is there parking available?
Free parking is available in front of the salon at 6532 Rue Beaubien Est and on surrounding streets. No downtown parking stress.
Can I combine laser hair removal with other treatments?
Absolutely. We recommend pairing your laser sessions with a HydraFacial for a complete beauty routine. The HydraFacial is ideal for your face while laser takes care of the body. Ask your esthetician during your consultation.
