More Information

Not Found

No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, or any related concepts like image processing, training sets, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML devices. The device description focuses on microcurrent stimulation.

No
The device is described as being for "over-the-counter cosmetic use" and "stimulation of healthy facial skin," which places it outside the typical definition of a therapeutic device designed to treat a medical condition or disease.

No
The device is intended for stimulation of healthy facial skin for cosmetic use, not for diagnosing any medical condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "hand-held, battery-powered device" and is used with "conductive treatment gel," indicating it includes hardware components beyond just software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The intended use is for "stimulation of healthy facial skin" and "facial stimulation for over-the-counter cosmetic use." This clearly describes a cosmetic or aesthetic purpose, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The device description mentions stimulating the face with microcurrents using a conductive gel. This aligns with a physical stimulation device, not a device that analyzes biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting diseases, or providing diagnostic information.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This device does not fit that description.

Dear Mr. Rubin,

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.
