The device description focuses on the hardware components and basic electronic control (microcontroller) of a CO2 laser system. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven algorithms typically associated with AI/ML applications in medical devices.
Yes.
The device is indicated for medical procedures such as incision, ablation, vaporization, and coagulation of soft tissues, and for skin resurfacing, all of which are considered therapeutic interventions.
No
The device is described for incision, ablation, vaporization, and coagulation of body soft tissues, which are therapeutic actions, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device description clearly outlines numerous hardware components including a metallic shell, touch screen display, key switch, emergency button, power supply, laser source, optical bench, arm, and articulated control electronics. This is not a software-only device.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue samples) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
- Device Function: The YOULASER CO2 Laser is a surgical device that directly interacts with body tissues inside or on the body (in vivo). It uses laser energy for incision, ablation, vaporization, and coagulation of soft tissues.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes surgical procedures performed on the body, not laboratory testing of specimens.
- Device Description: The description details the physical components of a laser system designed for surgical application, not a device for analyzing biological samples.
Therefore, based on the provided information, the YOULASER CO2 Laser is a surgical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
YOULASER CO2 Laser is indicated for Use incision. Intended excision, ablation, vaporization and coagulation of body soft tissues including intraoral tissues, in medical specialties including aesthetic (dermatology and plastic otolaryngology surgery). (ENT), gynaecology, neurosurgery, dental and oral surgery and genitourinary surgery. YOULASER CO2 Laser with the scanning unit is indicated for full ablative skin resurfacing for the following application: Dyschromia, Atrophic + Acne scars, Hypertrophic scars
The scanning modality is intended for the above described use. In this case the handpiece simply enables a laser-tissue interaction in different positions within a specific area.
