The summary describes a standard CO2 surgical laser system with a touch screen interface and foot switch activation. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any features that would suggest the use of such technologies. The performance studies focus on standard device safety and functionality testing.
Yes
The device is indicated for medical procedures such as Incision, Excision, Ablation, Vaporization, and Coagulation of Human Body Soft Tissues, and Ablative Skin Resurfacing, Wrinkle, Fine line, Rhylides, and Furrows, which are therapeutic interventions.
No
Explanation: The device is a surgical laser system used for incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, and coagulation of tissues, and for ablative skin resurfacing. Its intended uses involve treatment and modification of tissue, not diagnosis.
No
The device description explicitly lists hardware components such as a main body, articulated arm, hand-piece, protective goggles, foot switch, and power cable, indicating it is a hardware-based system with integrated software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information about a person's health. They are used outside of the body (in vitro) to diagnose, monitor, or screen for diseases or conditions.
- Device Function: The BIOXEL CO2 Surgical Laser System is a surgical laser used for direct interaction with human body soft tissues (incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, coagulation, and skin resurfacing). This is an in vivo (within the living body) procedure.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes surgical procedures performed directly on the patient's body, not the analysis of specimens taken from the body.
Therefore, the BIOXEL CO2 Surgical Laser System falls under the category of a surgical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Trade/Device Name: BIOXEL Fractional CO2 Surgical Laser System Regulation Number: 21 CFR 878.4810 Regulation Name: Laser Surgical Instrument For Use In General And Plastic Surgery And In Dermatology Regulatory Class: Class II Product Code: GEX, ONG Dated: June 1, 2018 Received: June 5, 2018
Dear Mr. Henderson:
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 Actinclude 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 or any Federal statutes and regulations 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 device
1
related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm.
For comprehensive regulatory information about medical devices and radiation-emitting products, including information about labeling regulations, please see Device Advice (https://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/) and CDRH Learn (http://www.fda.gov/Training/CDRHLearn). Additionally, you may contact the Division of Industry and Consumer Education (DICE) to ask a question about a specific regulatory topic.
