The Spectra VRMIII Laser System is indicated for the incision, excision, ablation, vaporization of soft tissues for general dermatology, dermatologic and general surgical procedures for coagulation and hemostasis.
- 532nm Wavelength (nominal delivered energy of 585 nm and 650 nm with optional dye handpieces):
- Tattoo removal: light ink (red, tan, purple, orange, sky blue, green)
- Removal of Epidermal Pigmented Lesions
- Removal of Minor Vascular Lesions including but not limited to telangiectasias
- Treatment of Lentigines
- Treatment of Café-Au-Lait
- Treatment of Seborrheic Keratoses
- Treatment of Post Inflammatory Hyper-Pigmentation
- Treatment of Becker's Nevi, Freckles and Nevi Spilus
- 1064nm Wavelength:
- Tattoo removal: dark ink (black, blue and brown)
- Removal of Nevus of Ota
- Removal or lightening of unwanted hair with or without adjuvant preparation.
- Treatment of Common Nevi
- Skin resurfacing procedures for the treatment of acne scars and wrinkles
The Spectra VRMIII Laser System produces a pulsed beam of coherent near infrared (1064 nm) and visible (532nm) light. This beam is directed to the treatment zone by means of an articulated arm coupled to a handpiece. In addition, two dye handpieces are available that convert the 532 nm wavelength to 585 nm and 650 nm. When the beam contacts human tissue, the energy in the beam is absorbed, resulting in a very rapid, highly localized temperature increase to the target chromospheres such as melanin and tattoo particles. This increases localized temperature of the chromospheres. The instantaneous temperature increase causes fragmentation of the chromospheres to smaller particles. By directing the beam onto specific tissue locations, using different handpieces, and controlling the treatment fluence, the intensity of the temperature of the target can be varied. The physician can optimize the effect for different applications by controlling the energy of the laser pulse and the spot size of the treatment beam.
The provided text is a 510(k) Summary for the Lutronic Corporation Spectra VRMIII Laser System. It is a premarket notification for a medical device seeking substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices. Crucially, this document explicitly states "Performance Data: None presented."
Therefore, based on the provided text, the device did not undergo a study to prove it meets acceptance criteria in the context of clinical performance or effectiveness. The 510(k) process often relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing devices rather than new clinical trials for performance.
Given this, I cannot provide the requested information, but I can elaborate on why:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
- Cannot be provided. The document states "Performance Data: None presented." This means there are no reported acceptance criteria or reported device performance metrics in this submission.
2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective):
- Cannot be provided. No test set was described as no performance data was presented.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience):
- Cannot be provided. No test set or ground truth establishment was described.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
- Cannot be provided. No test set or adjudication method was described.
5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:
- Cannot be provided. No MRMC study or AI component is mentioned. This device is a laser system, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:
- Cannot be provided. This is a laser system, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert concensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):
- Cannot be provided. No performance data or ground truth establishment was described.
8. The sample size for the training set:
- Cannot be provided. No training set was described. This is a laser system, not a machine learning model.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Cannot be provided. No training set or ground truth establishment was described.
In summary, the 510(k) summary explicitly states "Performance Data: None presented," indicating that the document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than providing new clinical performance data from studies.

Dear Ms. O'Connell:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate 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.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Center for Devices and Radiological Health's (CDRH's) Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0115. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding postmarket surveillance, please contact CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometric's (OSB's) Division of Postmarket Surveillance at (240) 276-3474. For questions regarding the reporting of device adverse events (Medical Device Reporting (MDR)), please contact the Division of Surveillance Systems at (240) 276-3464. You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (240) 276-3150 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/industry/support/index.html.
