No
The summary describes a laser system with different operating modes for specific treatments. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven algorithms typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices. The description focuses on the physical characteristics and modes of operation of the laser.
Yes
The intended uses listed (removal of tattoos, treatment of benign pigmented lesions, and removal of unwanted hair) are all therapeutic applications.
No
The device is described as a laser system for cutting, vaporization, ablation of soft tissue, removal of tattoos, treatment of benign pigmented lesions, and removal of unwanted hair. These are all therapeutic or aesthetic procedures, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "694 nm Ruby laser system," which is a hardware device, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: The intended uses are for the cutting, vaporization, or ablation of soft tissue, removal of tattoos, treatment of benign pigmented lesions, and removal of unwanted hair. These are all procedures performed directly on the patient's body (in vivo).
- Device Description: The device is a laser system designed to deliver energy to the skin and soft tissue.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples taken from the body (like blood, urine, tissue biopsies) or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device's function is therapeutic and cosmetic, not diagnostic.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The SINON is indicated:
- 1 . In the Q-Switch Mode, for the cutting, vaporization, or ablation of soft tissue. This includes the removal of tattoos and treatment of benign pigmented lesions.
-
- In the Free-Running Mode, for the removal of unwanted hair in patients with Fitzpatrick skin types of I and II.

Device Description
The SINON is a 694 nm Ruby laser system which can be operated in two different modes. The quality-switch or Q-switch or QS Operating Mode is characterized by extremely short pulse widths (ns = 103s) and high peak power (MW = 106W). The QS Operating Mode in the SINON is used for the removal of tattoos and treatment of pigmented lesions. The second mode is the Free-Running Operating Mode which is used for the removal of hair.
