No
The document describes a physical device that uses RF energy, magnetic fields, and manual massage. The software update is mentioned but only in the context of reflecting hardware changes. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any data-driven decision-making or analysis within the device's operation.
Yes
The device is intended for the treatment of various medical conditions, including relief of minor muscle aches and pain, muscle spasm, temporary improvement of local blood circulation, and temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite. These are therapeutic indications.
No
The device is described as being "intended for the treatment" of medical conditions, and its function involves delivering non-thermal RF, massage, and magnetic field pulses to achieve therapeutic effects rather than to diagnose conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states it consists of a console (main unit) and two applicators (Large and Small), which are hardware components. It also mentions hardware changes and increased RF output power.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes treatment of medical conditions (muscle aches, pain, spasm, blood circulation, cellulite). IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description: The description focuses on delivering energy (RF, magnetic fields) and performing physical manipulation (massage) to the body. This is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one that analyzes samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), performing tests on specimens, or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.
The device is a therapeutic device used for physical treatment and symptom relief.

Device Description
The subject device Venus Heal system is a modification of the legally marketed Venus Legacy CX system cleared under K143554. The proposed system is a smaller and lightweight version of the previously cleared Venus Legacy CX system. The Venus Heal system consists of a console (main unit) and two applicators (Large and Small). The console design change is driven to enhance the ergonomic capabilities of the product family.
The additional changes are summarized below:
Ergonomics of the user interface: bigger Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) color touch a) screen.
- Tissue manipulation includes manual massage only. c)
- d) Increase of Maximal RF output power.
- Updated software to reflect hardware changes. e)
The Venus Heal RF energy, pulsed magnetic fields (PMF) and tissue manipulation are utilized to trigger changes in the tissue which result in muscle spasm relief and pain relief, along with local blood circulation improvement.
Temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite is similarly achieved by combination of these three main mechanisms: RF and Pulse Magnetic Field (PMF) delivery as well as tissue manipulation,
Consistent with the previous clearance, the system is intended to be used in professional healthcare facilities (prescription use) just as the predicate, and its major components are still the main console unit, and individual modules/hand pieces.

Summary of Performance Studies
A bench test was performed to verify that RF output power elevation has not changed the temperature stability and raising time to endpoint on skin surface.
The bench test intended to demonstrate the ability of the Venus Heal device to reach and maintain a desired range of temperatures on the surface of the treated human skin during treatment time.
Treatment procedure included the temperature ramp up stage, and the maintenance stage in which the temperature was kept at desired temperature range (per user manual). Results of that bench test demonstrate the capability of the device to maintain the skin temperature of 40-45℃ for 10-15 minutes, hence the device meets the labeling specifications per the different anatomies.
In addition software verification and validation testing has been performed, and biocompatibility was confirmed using the same product material as in the predicate device.
In all instances, device functioned as intended and the results observed were as expected.

Dear Yoni Iger:
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.

V. Intended use of device and Indications for Use [21 CFR 807.92(a) (5)]
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Venus Heal device is intended for the treatment of the following medical conditions; using the Large and Small applicators for delivery of non-thermal RF combined with massage and magnetic field pulses:
- Relief of minor muscle aches and pain, relief of muscle spasm
- 트 Temporary improvement of local blood circulation
- . Temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite
VI. Summary of technological characteristics of the device compared to the predicate[21 CFR 807.92(a)(6)]
The technological principles underlying the subject device and its prior legally marketed iteration (K143554) are the same.
Operation of the modified system involves the delivery of RF energy and PMF through electrodes, similar to the previously cleared device. Energy source types are the same. The technological differences in the subject device as compared to the prior iteration is the slight alteration of the tissue manipulation mechanism and increase of optional maximal RF output. The previously cleared device, the Legacy CX, utilizes a tissue manipulation mechanism which emphasize lead mechanism of massage, assisted by suction. In the subject device this was reduced to massaging technique alone.
The new RF output levels along with PMF delivery are commonly used in the Family of Venus RF Systems, as well as in other previously cleared systems for the same indications for use.

A bench test was performed to verify that RF output power elevation has not changed the temperature stability and raising time to endpoint on skin surface.
The bench test intended to demonstrate the ability of the Venus Heal device to reach and maintain a desired range of temperatures on the surface of the treated human skin during treatment time.
Treatment procedure included the temperature ramp up stage, and the maintenance stage in which the temperature was kept at desired temperature range (per user manual). Results of that bench test demonstrate the capability of the device to maintain the skin temperature of 40-45℃ for 10-15 minutes, hence the device meets the labeling specifications per the different anatomies.
In addition software verification and validation testing has been performed, and biocompatibility was confirmed using the same product material as in the predicate device.
In all instances, device functioned as intended and the results observed were as expected.
VIII. Clinical Data [21 CFR 807.92(b) (2)]
Based on the similarities in the safety and effectiveness profiles of the subject and the predicate, no clinical studies were deemed needed to support this submission.
IX. Conclusions Safety and Effectiveness SE [21 CFR 807.92(b) (3)]
The Venus Heal system is as safe and effective as its predicate device, the Legacy CX, cleared under K143554. The modified system has the same intended use and indications,

similar technological characteristics, and similar principle of operation as its predicate device. The above discussed slight modifications do not alter the intended use of the device and does not affect its safety and effectiveness when used as labeled. Thus, the Venus Heal system is substantially equivalent to its predicate.
