Dear Kyra Kang:
We have reviewed your section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

Analysis 1 Laser mode
Both pulsed and CW modes have been rigorously tested and validated to ensure they meet all applicable regulatory requirements and deliver consistent, reliable performance. The difference in laser mode does not affect the safety or effectiveness.
Page 4 of 6
Page 9
Analysis 2 Divergence angle of terminal laser beam
By calculation, the distance of the Tamburo laser is 0.84 times that of Olympus. During clinical use, the fiber directly contacts the tissue. The distance difference can be ignored. The device has been rigorously tested and validated to ensure that it meets all applicable safety and performance standards, demonstrating that the divergence angle does not affect its ability to deliver effective and controlled laser energy for its intended use. Therefore, this difference does not pose any risk to the safety or effectiveness of the device.
