The summary describes a pulsed light hair removal system with no mention of AI or ML technology. The changes from the predicate device are limited to contact switches and expanded indications.
No
The device is intended for the removal of unwanted hair, which is a cosmetic procedure and not a therapeutic treatment for a disease or medical condition.
No.
The SpaTouch is intended for the removal of unwanted hair using photothermal treatment, which is a therapeutic function rather than a diagnostic one.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "Pulsed Light Hair Removal System" and mentions a "handpiece" with "contact switches," indicating it is a hardware device that uses pulsed light for treatment.
Based on the provided information, the SpaTouch device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for "removal of unwanted hair by using a selective photothermal treatment." This is a therapeutic or cosmetic procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device is a "Pulsed Light Hair Removal System." This describes a physical device that applies energy to the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a person's health. The SpaTouch does not involve the analysis of any biological specimens.
Therefore, the SpaTouch falls under the category of a therapeutic or cosmetic device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Predicate Devices
Radiancy (Israel) Ltd. DeLight II Hair Removal System
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The SpaTouch is intended for removal of unwanted hair by using a selective photothermal treatment. The device is generally indicated for dermatological use. The SpaTouch is specifically indicated for patient removal of unwanted hair by using a selective photothermal treatment under the direction of a physician, after training by a healthcare professional.
Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence
The SpaTouch and its predicate device are intended for removal of unwanted hair by using a selective photothermal treatment. The device is generally indicated for dermatological use. The SpaTouch is specifically indicated for patient removal of unwanted hair by using a selective photothermal treatment under the direction of a physician, after training by a healthcare professional. With the exception of contact switches added to the handpiece, the SpaTouch is the exact same device as the previously cleared DeLight II device. The only differences between the cleared DeLight II and the SpaTouch are the addition of the contact switches to the handpiece and the expanded indications for use. Neither of these differences raises new issues of safety or effectiveness. Thus, the SpaTouch can be found substantially equivalent.
Performance Data
Clinical data demonstrated that the device can be used safely and effectively under the supervision of a health professional.

Dear Mr. Kahan:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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 (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. 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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
