- 1064nm laser – approved to reduce unwanted body hair
The approval authorizes the use of a single integrated platform across multiple treatment applications within regulated clinical settings of China.
Japan: Regulatory Approval
In Japan, Clarity II has received regulatory clearance as of 9th January 2026 for use in medical aesthetic practices.
- Product Name: Clarity II
- Approved Indication:
- Alexandrite 755nm / Nd:YAG 1064nm approved for Long-term hair reduction
The clearance confirms compliance with Japan's stringent medical device regulatory requirements for laser-based aesthetic treatments.
Clinical and Operational Context
In both China and Japan, medical aesthetic practices are operating under increasingly rigorous regulatory and clinical expectations, with heightened emphasis on treatment precision, indication-specific use, and safety.
The regulatory approvals of Clarity II reflect growing demand for laser platforms that consolidate multiple clinically validated applications within a single system, while maintaining strict control over energy delivery and treatment parameters. In China, approval across both hair removal and wrinkle treatment applications enables practitioners to address multiple patient needs with one versatile platform. In Japan, clearance of the latest-generation system reinforces confidence in technological refinement and output consistency within a highly regulated clinical environment.
Together, these approvals position Clarity II as a platform aligned with the evolving standards of advanced aesthetic practice in Asia compliance, and clinical versatility are increasingly critical.
