Intended Use
585nm - 600nm: The TriStar Aesthetic Workstation laser is indicated for benign vascular and vascular dependent lesions removal. 1064mm: The TriStar laser is intended for the coagulation and hemostasis of benign vascular leasions such as, but not limited to, port wine stains, hemangiomas, warts, telangiectasia, rosacea, venus laske, leg veins, spider veins and poikiloderma of civatte and treatment of benign cutaneous lesions such as but not limited to, lentigos (age spots), solar lentigos (sun spots), café au lait macules, seborrheic keratoses, nevi, chloasma, verrucea, skin tags, keratoses, tattoos (significant reduction in the intensity of black and/or blue/black tattoos) and plaques. The laser is also indicated for the treatment of wrinkles such as, but not limited to, periocular and perioral wrinkles. Additionally, the laser is indicated for the removal of unwanted hair, for the stable long tern, or permanent, hair reduction through selective targeting of melanin in hair follicles, and for the treatment of psuedofolliculitis barbae (PFB). 1320 nm: The TriStar laser is indicated for use in gental surgery and dermatology for the incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, coagulation and hemostasis of soft tissue. It is also indicated for the treatment of periorbital and perioral wrinkles. It is also indicated for the treatment of fine lines and wrinkles.
Device Description
The TriStar laser is a combination of two laser devices; one pulse dye laser and the other Nd:YAG laser. They are housed in the same box with two separate laser energy delivery fibers. Laser activation is by foot switch. Overall weight of the laser is 25 Kg, and the size is 180x62x42 cm (HxWxD). Electrical requirement is 110 VAC, 15A, 50-60 Hz, single phase.

No
The summary describes a laser device with different wavelengths for various dermatological treatments. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven decision-making components in the device description or performance studies.

Yes
The device is indicated for the treatment of various medical conditions, including benign vascular lesions, wrinkles, unwanted hair, and soft tissue. Its intended use extends beyond aesthetic purposes to address health-related issues, aligning with the definition of a therapeutic device.

No.
The description states the device is a laser for treatment of various skin conditions, not for identifying or classifying a condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a combination of two laser devices housed in the same box with physical components like fibers, a foot switch, and specific dimensions and weight, indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended uses described are all related to treating various skin conditions, vascular lesions, wrinkles, and unwanted hair. These are all procedures performed on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a laser system designed to deliver energy to tissue.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any such analysis of biological samples.

The TriStar Aesthetic Workstation laser is a therapeutic device used for aesthetic and dermatological treatments.
