No
The device description focuses on the hardware (LEDs, controller, thermistors) and basic software for controlling light output and monitoring temperature. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data analysis beyond simple monitoring. The software classification is "Minor," which is typically associated with simpler control functions, not complex AI/ML algorithms.
Yes
The device is indicated for the treatment of periorbital wrinkles, which is a medical condition, making it a therapeutic device.
No
The device description explicitly states: "The equipment is not used to make measurements of any sort, or to draw any conclusions regarding the indication to treat." This indicates it's a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly outlines hardware components such as a controller, LED face pads, power supply, and cables. While it mentions software within the controller, the device's primary function and components are hardware-based.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the treatment of periorbital wrinkles by emitting light energy. This is a therapeutic application, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The device description focuses on the physical components, light emission properties, and control mechanisms for delivering light therapy. It explicitly states, "The equipment is not used to make measurements of any sort, or to draw any conclusions regarding the indication to treat." This is a key characteristic that differentiates it from an IVD.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: IVDs are designed to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not interact with biological specimens in this way.
In summary, the Lightfusion™ LED system is a therapeutic device that uses light energy to treat a medical condition, not a diagnostic device that analyzes biological samples.

Device Description
The LIGHTFUSION™ LED system is a table top, portable phototherapy device whose purpose is to produce an even, cool, narrow-band of light for the treatment periorbital wrinkles.
The system consists of a main body or controller that controls the 3 LED face pads. The controller switches the LEDs ON/OFF and controls power to the face pads. The controller contains a timer display consisting of a Dot matrix display. The controller contains software that monitors the face pad temperature via thermistors within the face pads contain the light emitting diodes (LEDs). The LEDs generate the light. The LEDs emit light energy in the red and near infrared light wavebands with peak wavelengths of 630nm +/-10nm, NIR: 830nm +/-17.5nm (Spectral range: Red 620-640nm, NIR 812.5-847.5nm). The therapy heads are designed to be placed over the forehead, sides of the face and chin.
The power supply is connected to a suitable mains outlet via a 2 or 3 pin input socket and wall plug. The power cable is connected to the controller by a standard coaxial connector. The face pads are connected to the controller by individual connectors that are sealed within the controller and cannot be removed by the user. The face pads contain a temperature sensor (thermistor) that feeds the temperature back to the controller.
The equipment is not used to make measurements of any sort, or to draw any conclusions regarding the indication to treat. The equipment does not require checks on the light output as the LEDs do not dim with age to any practical extent.
LIGHTFUSION Light emitting diode (LED) system emits light energy in the red and near infra-red (NIR) region of the light spectrum and is intended to treat periorbital wrinkles through a non-thermal mechanism of Photobiomodulation. Photobiomodulation is a form of light therapy that utilizes non ionizing forms of light sources such as LEDs, in the visible and near infrared spectrum. It is a non thermal process involving endogenous chromophores eliciting photophysical and photochemical events at various biological scales.

Non Clinical Performance & Safety Data:
To demonstrate safety and effectiveness and substantial equivalence the LIGHTFUSION™ LED system has undergone a number of non-clinical performance tests in line with recognised standards in terms of general requirements, biocompatibility, electrical safety and software.
General requirements and safety: The Light fusion LED system complies with IEC 60601-1: "Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1 - General Requirements for Basic Safety and essential performance" and IEC/EN 60601-1-2: Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic Compatibility – Requirements and test.
7
The LIGHTFUSION™ LED System has been evaluated against EN62471: Photobiological Safety of Lamps and Lamp Systems" in consideration of maximum possible light exposure to users and the results demonstrate that it poses no risk of retinal injury due to phototoxic effect, or the thermal damage mechanism. LIGHTFUSION™ LED System was assessed with regards to usability for compliance with IEC 62366: Medical devices - Application of usability enqineering to medical devices.
Software: In accordance with IEC 62304: 2006 Medical device Software - software life cycle process Vitage LED Ltd has allocated a software safety classification of Class A for the LIGHTFUSION LED system. The software has also been classified using the FDA level of concern matrix and the level of concern for the device software is: Minor.
Biocompatability: Considering the intended use for the LIGHTFUSION™ LED system Vitage LED Itd believes that the device is safe and compliant with the requirements of ISO 10993 and the FDA - Blue Book Memorandum #G95-1in terms of biocompatibility. This position is supported by ISO 10993-1:2009 annex B.
These non-clinical tests demonstrate that the LIGHTFUSION™ LED system is safe and effective and performs at least as safely and effectively as the legally marketed predicate devices
Substantial Equivalence statement:
The intended use and technological characteristics of the LIGHTFUSION™ LED System are virtually identical to the intended use and technological characteristics of the listed predicate device. Differences between the LIGHTFUSION™ LED System and the predicate device raise no new questions of safety and efficacy and introduce no new risks.
The LIGHTFUSION™ LED System and its predicate device are light based devices that use non thermal red and near infrared light energy to treat periorbital wrinkles by exposing the surface of the skin to red and near infrared light and work through the non-thermal mechanism of photobiomodulation.
The systems share the same general indications for use, wavelengths and similar functional features. Any minor differences have been identified by the manufacturer and these have been negated by non clinical performance testing.
VITAGE LED Ltd believe that the LIGHTFUSION™ LED system demonstrates substantial equivalence to the currently marketed predicate device, Young Again K124064.
Clinical Performance
Since the LIGHTFUSION™ LED system raises no new questions in terms of safety and efficacy clinical data is not required.
