The ProLite III TM Pulsed Light System with the HR handpiece (containing a 630-1100 nm, 630-990 nm, or 750 - 1100 nm filter) is intended for the removal of unwanted hair in all Fitzpatrick skin types.
The ProLite III TM Pulsed Light System with the PR handpiece (containing a 530-1100 nm, 550-1100 nm, or 580-1100 nm filter) is intended for the treatment of benign pigmented lesions and the removal of tattoos, the treatment of vascular lesions, and the treatment of shallow veins, telangiectasia, facial hemangiomas, and rosacea vascular lesions.
The ProLite III IPL is a device designed for dermatological use. It produces an intense light pulse within the wavelengths of 450 to 2000 nanometers, which is tailored to specific indications by a bandpass filter. The system is composed of a Tower which encloses the power supply and cooling system and a Handpiece which contains the flash lamp, filter and waveguide. The device is controlled by a touchscreen graphic user interface.
This 510(k) summary does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study that proves the device meets specific performance criteria. It primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on technological similarities and equivalent physical output characteristics.
Therefore, I cannot populate the requested tables and information based on the provided text.
Here's a breakdown of why the requested information is absent from this document:
- No Performance Data for Acceptance Criteria: The document describes the device's technical specifications (e.g., wavelength range, fluence, pulse duration) and its intended uses. However, it does not specify quantitative performance metrics (like efficacy rates, accuracy, precision, or safety outcomes) that would serve as acceptance criteria for a new clinical or performance study.
- No Study Details: The submission relies on "substantial equivalence" to previously cleared predicate devices (ProLite K021304 and Dermalux K010618) rather than presenting new clinical or performance study data for the ProLite III. The core argument is that because the new device uses similar technology and has equivalent output characteristics, its risks and benefits are comparable to those already established for the predicates.
- No Mention of Training or Test Sets: Since no new performance study is detailed, there's no discussion of sample sizes for test sets, training sets, data provenance, ground truth establishment methods, or expert involvement.
- No MRMC or Standalone Study: The document does not describe either a multi-reader multi-case comparative effectiveness study or a standalone algorithm performance study. These types of studies are typically conducted for AI/software devices or when demonstrating new performance claims that go beyond established equivalence.
In summary, the provided 510(k) summary is a "traditional" 510(k) submission that leverages substantial equivalence to predicate devices, rather than a submission that presents novel performance data against specific acceptance criteria.

D. Device Description [21 CFR 807.92(a)(4)]
The ProLite III IPL is a device designed for dermatological use. It produces an intense light pulse within the wavelengths of 450 to 2000 nanometers, which is tailored to specific indications by a bandpass filter. The system is composed of a Tower which encloses the power supply and cooling system and a Handpiece which contains the flash lamp, filter and waveguide. The device is controlled by a touchscreen graphic user interface.
E. Device Specifications [21 CFR 807.92(a)(6)]
The ProLite III IPL outputs a flash with selectable pulse durations of 5 to 120 milliseconds with a shot fluence adjustable in the range of 5-30 J/cm². The maximal repetition rate is 1 shot ver second. The photorejuvenation "PR" handpieces output the spectrum from 530 to 1100 nm, 550-1100 nm, or 580-1100 nm using a userinaccessible bandpass filter. The hair removal "HR" handpieces output the spectrum from 630 to 990 nm, 630 to 1100 nm, or 650 to 1100 nm using a user inaccessible bandpass filter. The waveguide area is 6 cm (1.5 x 4 cm). The waveguide is cooled by thermo-electric "Peltier" devices with the temperature setpoint adjustable from room temperature to 5℃.
F. Indications for Use [21 CFR 807.92(a)(5)]
The ProLite III TM Pulsed Light System with the HR handpiece (containing a 630-1100 nm, 630-990 nm, or 750 - 1100 nm filter) is intended for the removal of unwanted hair in all Fitzpatrick skin types.
The ProLite III TM Pulsed Light System with the PR handpiece (containing a 530-1100 nm, 550-1100 nm, or 580-1100 nm filter) is intended for the treatment of benign pigmented lesions and the removal of tattoos, the treatment of vascular lesions, and the treatment of shallow veins, telangiectasia, facial hemangiomas, and rosacea vascular lesions.
G. Conclusion [21 CFR 807.92(b)(3)]
Technologically, the ProLite III was found to be substantially equivalent to the currently cleared ProLite (K021303) and Dermalux (K021304). Thus, the risks and benefits for the ProLite III are comparable to the predicate devices.
The indications for use are exactly the same as the previously cleared pulsed light system, the ProLite (K021303).
We believe that there are no new questions of safety or efficacy raised by the introduction of the ProLite III.

Dear Dr. Johnson:
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.
