No.
The device's intended use is for cosmetic hair removal and permanent hair reduction by heating hair roots, not for treating a disease, injury, or other medical condition.

No

The device is intended for hair removal and hair reduction, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a physical device that uses Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology and includes hardware components like a treatment window head, facial adaptor, battery charger/AC cord, and operates on AC power. It is not solely 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 the removal and permanent reduction of unwanted body and facial hair. This is a physical treatment applied to the body, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The device uses Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) to heat hair roots. This is a therapeutic mechanism, not a diagnostic one.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device being used to diagnose a condition, measure a substance in a biological sample, or provide information about a patient's health status based on in vitro analysis.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any such function.

Dear Iris Fung:

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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/ofdocs/ofpmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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.

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 of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/CombinationProducts/GuidanceRegulatoryInformation/ucm597488.html; good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

2. Device Description

IPL Salon Hair Reduction System, Model: F60001, a small over-the-counter device, is a homeuse device for the permanent reduction of hair growth based on Intense Pulsed Light (IPL). Emission activation is by finger switch. Device includes a treatment window head, a facial adaptor and battery charger/AC cord. It is used AC Powered(100-240 V AC; 50/60 Hz).The weight of the device is 650g, and the size is 143 x69.5 x 43mm (HWD).The device incorporates Intense Pulse Light (IPL) technology. The purpose of the light is to heat the root where the hair grows.

5. Intended Use / Indications for Use

The IPL Salon Hair Reduction System (Model: F60001) is an over the Counter device intended for the removal of unwanted body and/or facial hair in adults. It is also intended for permanent reduction in unwanted hair. Permanent hair reduction is defined as the long-term stable reduction in the number of hairs re-growing when measured at 6. 9. and 12 months after the completion of a treatment regimen.

6. Design

A flash of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is directed at the skin and the light energy travels along the pigment in the hair, where it is converted to heat energy. It is the heat energy that disables the hair follicle preventing the hair from regrowing. Treated hairs will shed naturally within a couple of weeks of treatment and will not regrow. Each treatment will only be effective on hairs that are in their active growth phase at the time, so it is important to follow a course of treatments over a twelve-week period to ensure all hairs are treated.

The device contains a Xenon Lamp and a skin proximity sensor to detect appropriate skin contact. If the IPL Hair Removal Device is not properly applied to the treatment area (in full contact with the skin), the device cannot be triggered. The device is designed for use on the legs, underarms, bikini line, chest, stomach, back, arms and on the face below the cheekbones [although not recommended for use on male facial hair].
