The RevLite System with LCD Panel laser unit and controls are contained in a single console. Electrical power is supplied to the console by the facility's power source. Laser energy produced within the device is delivered to the tissue by means of an articulated arm and a specially designed MultiSpot Handpiece or optional Multilite Dye Laser Handpieces. The user activates laser emission by means of a footswitch. The RevLite System incorporates 2 very narrow laser applications designed to apply more energy over a larger spot size at the same fluence level, enabling the physician to treat a larger area more rapidly.
The provided K063834 RevLite Q-Switched Laser System did not include any clinical performance data or studies. The submission explicitly states "Nonclinical Performance Data: None" and "Clinical Performance Data: none".
Therefore, I cannot provide a table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance, nor can I answer any of the subsequent questions related to a study, as no such study is described in this document.
The FDA's decision was based on a comparison to an equivalent device (RevLite C6 Q-Switched Nd: YAG Laser System - K063112) in terms of indications for use, technical specifications, operating performance features, and general design features, rather than on new performance data for this specific submission.

(a)
Identification. (1) A carbon dioxide laser for use in general surgery and in dermatology is a laser device intended to cut, destroy, or remove tissue by light energy emitted by carbon dioxide.(2) An argon laser for use in dermatology is a laser device intended to destroy or coagulate tissue by light energy emitted by argon.
(b)
Classification. (1) Class II.(2) Class I for special laser gas mixtures used as a lasing medium for this class of lasers. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 878.9.
