No
The device description details a standard analog laser system with no mention of AI or ML components. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".
Yes
The device is intended for stable, long-term or permanent hair reduction and for coagulation and haemostasis of vascular lesions, which are therapeutic effects on the body.
No
The device's intended use is for permanent hair reduction and coagulation/hemostasis of vascular lesions, which are therapeutic rather than diagnostic purposes.
No
The device description clearly indicates it is a physical laser system with specific dimensions, weight, and electrical requirements, controlled by a 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 describes a device used for treating conditions (hair reduction and vascular lesions) by applying energy directly to the body. IVDs are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) taken from the body to provide information about a person's health status.
- Device Description: The description details a laser system, which is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one that analyzes biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, calibrators, controls, or any other components typically associated with IVD devices.
Therefore, the CLS001 Laser System is a therapeutic device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Substantial Equivalence ' ' ' ' '
The CLS001 Laser System is as safe and effective as the other devices in its class, the Smartepil and the Depilase. The sponsor believes that with the exception of the configuration of the predicate devices, the devices are identical in the key areas that effect safety and efficacy. Both The sponsor believes that the difference in the physical appearance or in the method of delivering the radiant energy of the device systems is of no consequence and does not effect the therapeutic value or the safety profile. The sponsor believes that the difference between the devices is limited to the method of controls. The CLS001 is an analog system and the predicate devices are digital, microprocessor controlled systems. The CLS001 laser system is another safe and effective Nd: YAG laser intended to effect stable, long-term or permanent hair reduction, in Fitzpatrick skin types I-VI, including sun tanned skin types. Permanent hair reduction is defined as long-term, stable reduction in the number of hairs regrowing after a treatment regime The CLS001 Laser System is intended to effect coagulation and haemostatis of vascular lesions in Fitzpatrick skin types I-VI. including suntanned skin types. Therefore, the CLS001 Laser System satisfies the FDA's substantial equivalence criteria and should be granted a 510(k) clearance for marketing.
