Intended Use

The Sunetics LaserBrush is indicated to treat Androgenetic Alopecia, promote hair growth and prevent further hair loss in males who have Norwood Hamilton Classifications of IIa to V and Fitzpatrick Skin Types I to IV & also in females who have Ludwig (Savin) I-4, II-1, II-2, or frontal patterns of hair loss & Fitzpatrick Skin Types I to IV.

Device Description

The Sunetics LaserBrush consists of a handheld low-level laser device intended to promote hair growth. Depending upon the Sunetics LaserBrush model, the device provides distributed laser light using seven (7), nine (9), or twelve (12), collimated, 650 nm, <5 mW laser modules, while brush bristles simultaneously part the user's hair to ensure that the laser light reaches the user's scalp.

AI/ML Overview

The provided 510(k) submission for the Sunetics LaserBrush does not include a study demonstrating device performance against specific acceptance criteria relevant to an AI/ML medical device. The submission focuses on substantial equivalence to a predicate device (HairMax LaserCombs) through comparison of technological characteristics.

Therefore, the following information is not present in the provided text:

  • A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance (in the context of AI/ML performance metrics).
  • Sample size for the test set or data provenance for an AI/ML study.
  • Number of experts or their qualifications for establishing ground truth for an AI/ML study.
  • Adjudication method for an AI/ML study.
  • Whether a multi-reader, multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done or its effect size.
  • Whether a standalone (algorithm only) performance study was done.
  • The type of ground truth used for an AI/ML study.
  • Sample size for the training set for an AI/ML model.
  • How ground truth for the training set was established for an AI/ML model.

What is provided regarding performance:

The submission states under "Performance Data":
"The laser wavelength, average and peak power levels, laser treatment field and energy delivery of the Sunetics LaserBrush and the Lexington Hairmax LaserComb were substantially equivalent."

And in the "Conclusions":
"The performance data discussed above demonstrate that the Sunetics LaserBrush device is as safe and effective as the predicate device."

This indicates that the "performance data" refers to the physical and operational characteristics of the laser device being comparable to the predicate, rather than clinical efficacy data generated from a new trial or AI/ML performance metrics. The FDA's 510(k) clearance confirms substantial equivalence based on these comparisons.

Dear Mr. Carullo:

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 that I DA has made a coulations 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
