The description focuses on light therapy and temperature stabilization, with no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.
Yes.
The device is indicated for the treatment of mild to moderate acne, which is a therapeutic purpose.
No
The device is indicated for treatment of acne, not for diagnosis. The performance studies measure treatment efficacy (reduction in lesion count, improvement percentage), not diagnostic accuracy.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "hand held device battery operated that uses low power light spectrum, LED, at wavelength of 415 ±15 nm, combine with tip temperature stabilizer at 41ºC," indicating it is a hardware device with integrated software for control and operation.
Based on the provided information, the Silkn Blue device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "for the treatment of mild to moderate acne." This is a therapeutic use, not a diagnostic one. IVDs are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description: The description details a phototherapy device that applies light directly to the skin. This is a physical treatment method, not a method for analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, or any of the typical components or processes associated with in vitro diagnostics.
The Silkn Blue is a therapeutic device used for treating a medical condition (acne) directly on the patient's body.

Summary of Performance Studies
The clinical study involves 50 subjects who used the Silk'n Blue twice a week over four weeks (a total of 8 treatments), and 2 follow-up visits to evaluate the results. All subjects demonstrated a reduction in lesion count.
The average improvement after one month was 56.7% and remained similar also after 3 months 57.7%±9.4%.
The users were asked to fill a questionnaire regarding the device use and labeling. Safety was evaluated by monitoring immediate reaction and adverse effects. There were no other adverse effects associated with the treatment.
