More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on the hardware components of a laser system and does not mention any software or algorithms that would suggest AI/ML.

Yes
The device is indicated for the treatment of wrinkles, which makes it a therapeutic device.

No
The device is described as a laser system intended for the treatment of wrinkles, not for diagnosing any condition.

No

The device description explicitly lists hardware components such as a main laser console, fiber optic delivery device, optical handpiece, and footswitch, indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.

Based on the provided information, the NLite System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the treatment of wrinkles in the specialties of Dermatology and Plastic Surgery. This is a therapeutic application performed directly on a patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a laser system used for treatment, not for analyzing biological samples outside of the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.), performing tests on these samples, or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The NLite System's function is entirely different.
