The device description and performance studies focus on laser technology and clinical outcomes, with no mention of AI or ML.
Yes
The device is indicated for the "treatment of acne scars and wrinkles" and "tattoo and benign pigmented lesions removal," which are therapeutic applications.
No
The device is indicated for tattoo and benign pigmented lesions removal, and treatment of acne scars and wrinkles. It is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "high-powered, Alexandrite system that delivers laser energy," indicating it is a hardware-based laser system, not software only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for tattoo and benign pigmented lesion removal, and treatment of acne scars and wrinkles. These are all procedures performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device is a laser system that delivers energy to the skin. This is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health condition. The device's function is to treat conditions, not diagnose them.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

Device Description
The PicoSure™ workstation is a high-powered, Alexandrite system that delivers laser energy in the 755-nm nominal wavelength. The system offers fast and efficient treatment through a variety of spot sizes, fluences and repetition rates. Laser activation is by footswitch. In addition to the 755 nm handpiece, an optional 532 nm Laser Delivery System can replace the 755 nm handpiece at the distal end of the articulated arm. This 532 nm Laser Delivery System converts the 755 nm laser energy into a 532 nm wavelength and is available in multiple spot sizes.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Clinical tests submitted: The study was performed using 18 subjects with a total of 23 tattoos. Subjects were ages 24 - 47. Subjects received 2 to 7 treatments every 6 weeks (+/- 2 weeks). Subjects were divided into two groups and treated exclusively with PicoSure or the tattoo was split into two treatment areas and treated with PicoSure and the predicate device. Three blinded reviewers performed an evaluation of photographs using a 6 point categorical efficacy scoring scale as well as rating the clearance of individual colors present in the tattoo. Mean scores for all three evaluators were calculated per subject to determine overall mean scores. The results of the blinded evaluation were subjects treated with PicoSure were rated 3.8/6 overall mean score, showing the PicoSure to be as effective as the predicate device RevLite, rated 3.7/6 overall mean score. There were no deaths, serious adverse events (SAEs) or unanticipated adverse device effects (UADEs) reported in this study. The primary objectives of the study were to assess overall treatment efficacy through blinded photographic evaluation using a 6 point scale to grade improvement, assess safety of the PicoSure laser through the recording of side effects during the course of the study and compare efficacy of the PicoSure laser to the predicate device in a subset of patients, have been met.
Non-clinical tests submitted: Software verification and validation testing to support the 532 nm Laser Delivery System was successfully completed.
Conclusions drawn from clinical and non-clinical tests submitted: Testing confirmed that the PicoSure workstation with the 532 nm Laser Delivery System is safe and effective in the removal of tattoos.
