No
The summary describes a standard IPL device with no mention of AI or ML in its intended use, device description, or performance studies.

Yes
The device is indicated for medical treatments such as benign cutaneous vascular lesions, benign pigmented epidermal and cutaneous lesions, and inflammatory acne, which categorizes it as a therapeutic device.

No

The device description and intended use clearly state that it is an Intense Pulsed Light device for treatment of various dermatological conditions and hair removal, not for diagnosing them.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "light based medical device" and lists hardware components such as a control console, display panel, power supply, cooling system, and hand piece. This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the device as being used for medical and aesthetic treatments applied directly to the patient's skin (e.g., treatment of vascular lesions, pigmented lesions, acne, hair removal). This involves interacting with the patient's body, not analyzing samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The device description details a light-based system with a handpiece that delivers light to the patient. This aligns with a therapeutic or aesthetic device, not a diagnostic one that analyzes samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro analysis.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device's function is to deliver light energy to the body for therapeutic and aesthetic effects.

Dear E. J. Smith:

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you; however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

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
