More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a laser handpiece for dermatological procedures and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

Yes.
The device is intended for dermatological procedures such as skin resurfacing, coagulation of soft tissue, and treatment of melasma, acne scars, and surgical scars, which are all therapeutic interventions.

No

The device description focuses on therapeutic procedures (coagulation, skin resurfacing) and does not mention any function for identifying, analyzing, or determining a medical condition.

No

The device description explicitly states that the Lux1540 and Lux1440 Handpieces are hardware components that attach to a larger hardware system (StarLux System console) which includes a power supply, chiller, electronics, cart, and footswitch. This is not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "dermatological procedures requiring: coagulation of soft tissue, skin resurfacing procedures, melasma, acne scars, and surgical scars." These are all procedures performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description details a laser handpiece that attaches to a system with a power supply, chiller, etc. This is consistent with a device used for external treatment.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to test samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) in vitro (outside the body) to diagnose a condition.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on biological samples to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device is a therapeutic device used for direct treatment of skin conditions.

Dear Ms. Timberlake:

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 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); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set
