No.
The device is intended for non-invasive reduction in abdominal circumference and fat reduction in the flanks and thighs for a desired aesthetic effect, which is not considered a therapeutic function.
No
The device is described as delivering focused ultrasound energy to disrupt subcutaneous adipose tissue for non-invasive aesthetic effects, such as fat reduction and reduction in circumference. Its intended use is for treatment, not for diagnosing medical conditions or diseases.
No
The device description explicitly states that the UltraShape System is comprised of multiple components, including a control unit and two ultrasonic transducers, which are described as electro-mechanical devices. This indicates the presence of hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for non-invasive reduction in abdominal circumference and fat reduction for aesthetic purposes. This is a therapeutic/aesthetic application, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The device uses focused ultrasound energy to disrupt subcutaneous adipose tissue. This is a physical mechanism for treatment, not a method for analyzing biological samples to diagnose a condition.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or any diagnostic purpose. IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
The UltraShape System is a medical device used for body contouring, which falls under a different regulatory category than IVDs.

Device Description
The UltraShape System is comprised of multiple components, including the control unit and two ultrasonic transducers. The UltraShape System selectively targets subcutaneous adipose tissue via focused ultrasound for the purpose of non-invasive aesthetic body contouring. The transducers are electro-mechanical devices that convert an electrical signal into mechanical (acoustical) energy. The operating parameters of the UltraShape System achieve selective disruption of adipose tissue without damaging neighboring tissues such as blood vessels, nerves, or muscle. The UltraShape System has two treatment modes available, the Single Focus Deep Mode and the Super Mode.

Summary of Performance Studies
Nonclinical Performance Testing. The following nonclinical performance testing was previously conducted to support the substantial equivalence of the UltraShape System to the predicate device, consistent with FDA's Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Focused Ultrasound Stimulator System for Aesthetic Use (2011). In all instances, the UltraShape System functioned as intended.
- Biocompatibility testing in accordance with ISO 10993 for skin irritation, sensitization, and cytotoxicity supported the biocompatibility of the patient-contacting components of the device.
- Beam profile testing demonstrated that the acoustic energy is delivered and concentrated in the desired target location.
- Acoustic power testing demonstrated that the acoustic power of the transducers is highly predictable with low variability.
- In vitro acoustic and thermal measurements demonstrated the safety of non-targeted tissues both proximal and distal to the targeted region.
- Software verification and validation was performed, and demonstrated that the software performs as intended.
- Electrical safety (IEC 60601-1), electromagnetic compatibility (IEC 60601-1-2) and electromagnetic immunity testing was conducted and results were passing.
- In vivo testing in an animal model was performed which demonstrated the treatment effects of the UltraShape, and supported its safety and efficacy profile for the intended use.
Clinical Data: Clinical evaluation of the UltraShape device for non-invasive lipolysis of the thighs was performed in a prospective, single-arm, self-controlled study. A total of 47 subjects (all female) across a range of ages, ethnicities, and skin types were enrolled at 3 U.S. sites. The mean age was 46 years and the majority of the subjects were Caucasian. The mean weight at baseline was 70±10 kg (range 51-103 kg). Each subject received 3 biweekly treatments on one randomized thigh, while the other thigh remained untreated throughout the study to serve as a control. Subject follow up was conducted at 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 16 weeks after the last treatment.
The study met its primary effectiveness endpoint, where blinded reviewers who were shown randomized pairs of thigh photographs correctly identified both pre- versus post-treatment and treated versus untreated thighs in 81% of cases. Further, even in the Intent-to-Treat population, with worst case imputation where all missing data were treated as failures, 64% of the subjects were successes. UltraShape treated thighs showed statistically significantly greater circumference reduction compared to the control thighs at each follow-up visit. Fat thickness reduction results following UltraShape treatment were statistically significantly greater compared to controls as measured by ultrasound. Investigators were satisfied with results following UltraShape treatment for 77% of the subjects at 4 week follow up, 81% of the subjects at 8 week follow up, and 68% of the subjects at 16 week follow up. At 4, 8 and 16 weeks following end of treatments. 62%, 61% and 68% of the subjects were satisfied or very satisfied. Finally, treatment with the UltraShape System in the thigh area demonstrated a strong positive safety profile, with no adverse events reported after 128 treatment sessions and only mild anticipated treatment responses (e.g., erythema) that resolved without intervention. This is consistent with the results observed for prior UltraShape clearances, including the predicate device.
Study Design: Prospective, single-arm, self-controlled, multicenter clinical study
Sample size: 47 subjects at 3 sites were enrolled in the study
Principal Eligibility Criteria: Fat thickness of at least 1.5 cm in the treated area as measured by calibrated caliper. BMI interval: 22 ≤ BMI ≤ 30 (normal to overweight, but not obese). General good health confirmed by medical history and skin examination of the treated area.
Follow up intervals: 3 treatment visits and follow up visits at 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 16 weeks.
Endpoints:
Primary: Circumference and fat reduction in thighs was based on visual assessment of randomized photographs of before (baseline) versus after (16 weeks following last treatment), as well as treated versus untreated thighs by 2 blinded reviewers. The primary endpoint was achieved when at least 80% of treated versus control thighs and pre- versus post-treatment photographs were correctly identified.
Secondary: Circumference reduction on treated thigh compared to control thigh. Fat thickness reduction on the treated thigh compared to the control thigh, measured by ultrasound. Fat thickness reduction on the treated thigh compared to the control thigh, measured by caliper. Investigator satisfaction assessment. Subject satisfaction self-assessment. Subjects' comfort level assessed immediately after each treatment.
Effectiveness Results:
Primary: Met endpoint; blinded reviewers identified correctly (by agreement between the blinded reviewers) both the pre-/post-treatment photographs as well as the treated/un-treated thighs in 81% (30 of 37) subjects.
Secondary: UltraShape treated thighs showed statistically significantly greater circumference reduction compared to the control thighs at each follow-up visit. Fat thickness reduction results following UltraShape treatment were statistically significantly greater compared to controls as measured by ultrasound. Fat thickness reduction results following UltraShape treatment were greater compared to controls as measured by caliper, although the difference was not statistically significant at all visits. Investigators were satisfied with results following UltraShape treatment for 77% of the subjects at 4 week follow up, 81% of the subjects at 8 week follow up, and 68% of the subjects at 16 week follow up. At 4, 8 and 16 weeks following end of treatments, 62%, 61% and 68% of the subjects were satisfied or very satisfied. Subjects reported no to minimal pain on average for each of the three treatments.
Safety Results: No adverse events were reported after 128 treatment sessions were conducted. The only immediate responses recorded were mild and resolved completely within days without any intervention.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The UltraShape System delivers focused ultrasound energy that can disrupt subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) for lipolysis (breakdown of fat) to provide a non-invasive approach to achieve a desired aesthetic effect. It is intended for non-invasive reduction in abdominal circumference and fat reduction in the flanks and thighs.
Device Description
The UltraShape System is comprised of multiple components, including the control unit and two ultrasonic transducers. The UltraShape System selectively targets subcutaneous adipose tissue via focused ultrasound for the purpose of non-invasive aesthetic body

contouring. The transducers are electro-mechanical devices that convert an electrical signal into mechanical (acoustical) energy. The operating parameters of the UltraShape System achieve selective disruption of adipose tissue without damaging neighboring tissues such as blood vessels, nerves, or muscle. The UltraShape System has two treatment modes available, the Single Focus Deep Mode and the Super Mode.
Technological Characteristics
The UltraShape System has similar technological characteristics compared to its predicate. Both devices are comprised of the system console, including the computer, and two ultrasonic transducers. The transducers deliver the focused ultrasound energy beam to the targeted treatment area, and real-time optical and acoustic feedback (optional) on the treatment is provided via the tracking and guidance system. With both the UltraShape and its predicate, the transducers' functionality is based on the piezoelectric effect implemented with the ceramic element. The transducers' membranes of the subject UltraShape are composed of the same material as previously cleared for the U-Sculpt transducer of the predicate.
In addition, the subject UltraShape System has the same treatment parameters as the previously cleared UltraShape device, including the same frequency, burst duration, node duration, and user interface. The power intensity levels were previously cleared for the UltraShape, and the focal distribution of the energy beams delivered to the treatment area is consistent between the device and its predicate, including the focal depth, diameter, and length.
Therefore, the subject UltraShape System has very similar technological characteristics as its predicate.
Performance Data
Nonclinical Performance Testing. The following nonclinical performance testing was previously conducted to support the substantial equivalence of the UltraShape System to the predicate device, consistent with FDA's Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Focused Ultrasound Stimulator System for Aesthetic Use (2011).

Clinical Data: In addition, clinical evaluation of the UltraShape device for non-invasive lipolysis of the thighs was performed in a prospective, single-arm, self-controlled study. A total of 47 subjects (all female) across a range of ages, ethnicities, and skin types were enrolled at 3 U.S. sites. The mean age was 46 years and the majority of the subjects were Caucasian.

Finally, treatment with the UltraShape System in the thigh area demonstrated a strong positive safety profile, with no adverse events reported after 128 treatment sessions and only mild anticipated treatment responses (e.g., erythema) that resolved without intervention. This is consistent with the results observed for prior UltraShape clearances, including the predicate device.

Therefore, clinical evaluation of the subject UltraShape device demonstrated its favorable performance and safety profile for lipolysis of the thighs. Results thus further support substantial equivalence of the device as compared to the predicate.
Substantial Equivalence
The UltraShape has the same intended use and very similar indications for use, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as its predicate device. The technological differences between the UltraShape and its predicate mainly consist of minor improvements to the device to facilitate use. Nonclinical and clinical studies of the
7
UltraShape have demonstrated the device's safety and effectiveness profile in the intended population. Thus, the UltraShape is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
Conclusion
Syneron's UltraShape System is a Focused Ultrasound Stimulator System for Aesthetic Use Class II device that has been evaluated in nonclinical testing in accordance with FDA's corresponding Special Controls Guidance Document. Testing demonstrated that the device performs as intended. The UltraShape device is substantially equivalent to its predicate device (K141708).
