More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a radiofrequency and mechanical massage device with standard components and no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No.
The device is intended for temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite, which is a cosmetic indication rather than a therapeutic one directed at treating a disease or condition.

No

The device is intended for therapeutic purposes (temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite) through RF energy delivery and mechanical manipulation, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly details hardware components such as a handpiece, RF emission indicator (LED), thermo-electric cooler, umbilical cable, and handpiece connector with an integrated impedance matching network and memory chip. This indicates it is a physical device with hardware, not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use and Indications for Use: The device is intended for use in dermatologic and general surgical procedures to provide temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite through the application of RF energy and mechanical manipulation of the skin. This is a therapeutic and aesthetic application, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details a device that delivers energy and provides mechanical massage to the skin. It does not describe any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) which is the core function of an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD-related information: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analysis of biological samples.
    • Detection or measurement of analytes.
    • Diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions based on in vitro analysis.

In summary, the device is a therapeutic/aesthetic device used on the body's surface, not a diagnostic device used to analyze samples taken from the body.

Regulatory Class: II

Product Code: NUV, GEI, ISA Dated: December 16, 2008 Received: December 22, 2008

Dear Ms. Worden:

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.
