The description details a TENS device with pre-set programs and no mention of adaptive learning, data processing, or AI/ML terms.
No.
The device is intended for "cosmetic use" and its function of applying Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) is for facial stimulation for aesthetic purposes, rather than for diagnosing, treating, or preventing disease.
No
The device is intended for facial stimulation for cosmetic use, applying Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) to the facial area. There is no mention of it being used to diagnose any condition or disease.
No
The device description clearly outlines hardware components including a rechargeable electronic device, applicator, gel pads, and a battery pack, indicating it is not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "facial stimulation" for "over the counter cosmetic use." This clearly indicates a cosmetic purpose, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description details a device that applies electrical impulses to the face for stimulation. This is consistent with a cosmetic or therapeutic device, not a device used to diagnose a condition.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, or tissue) or providing information about a person's health status or disease. IVDs are specifically designed for these purposes.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on safety and compliance with electrical and medical equipment standards, not on the accuracy or reliability of a diagnostic test.
In summary, the BMR Face is described as a cosmetic device for facial stimulation, which falls outside the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
BMR Face. Type 371/372* (* Type 372 is simply a black version of Type 371) is a twochannel, battery operated cosmetic device which is intended for use on the face. The device consists of a rechargeable electronic device which connects to an applicator. Each side paddle of the applicator contains a set of replaceable twin conductive gel pads which deliver electrical impulses to the face.
The BMR Face device operates by applying Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) to the facial area. Low-level electrical impulses are sent from the stimulator unit via an applicator to gel pads that are positioned anterior to each ear and strategically over the cranial nerve #7 of the face,
3 programs are available to the user and these vary in treatment times from 10 to 20 minutes. Power is derived from a 3.6V NiMH rechargeable battery pack that is pre-installed in the unit and there is no capability for charging the unit whilst any treatment is ongoing. All internal connections of the unit are over molded to prevent moisture ingress.

Dear Ms. Keenan:
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 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 forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please go to http://www.fda.gov/AboutFDA/CentersOffices/CDRH/CDRHQffices/ucm115809.htm for the Center for Devices and Radiological Health's (CDRH's) Office of Compliance. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to
http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm for the CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometrics/Division of Postmarket Surveillance.
