The summary describes a laser and IPL system for aesthetic and surgical applications. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies. The software validation is standard for medical devices and does not indicate AI/ML.
Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is intended for "therapeutic" applications, as well as aesthetic, cosmetic, and surgical applications. It also lists numerous medical conditions and procedures for treatment, such as benign vascular lesions, benign pigmented lesions, acne scars, wrinkles, and inflammatory acne, which fall under the category of therapeutic uses.
No
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section lists aesthetic, cosmetic, and surgical applications, including incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, coagulation, and removal/treatment of various lesions, tattoos, and hair. These are all therapeutic or cosmetic treatments, not diagnostic procedures. While it mentions diagnosis in a standard it complies with, its primary use described is not for diagnosing.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "laser family" and includes physical components like laser sources, handpieces, an articulated arm, and a touch screen display. While it mentions controlling software, it is an integral part of a hardware system.
Based on the provided text, the Discovery Pico Family device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "aesthetic, cosmetic and surgical applications requiring incision, excision, ablation, vaporization and coagulation of body soft tissues". These are all procedures performed on the body, not on samples taken from the body.
- Indications for Use: All the listed indications involve treating conditions directly on the patient's skin or body tissues (tattoo removal, lesion treatment, hair removal, wrinkle treatment, acne treatment, etc.).
- Device Description: The description details a laser system with handpieces and cooling systems, designed for delivering energy to the body. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The Discovery Pico Family does not perform this function.
Therefore, the Discovery Pico Family is a therapeutic and surgical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
The Discovery Pico Family is a laser family that includes Q-Switched and/or Pulsed laser sources, emitting at one or more of the following wavelengths: 532 nm, 1064 nm, 694 nm (Ruby laser)
The Discovery Pico Family systems, through the special universal Twain connector, can be equipped with intense pulsed light handpieces (Twain IPL) emitting at the following wavelengths: 650-1200nm, 625-1200nm, 590-1200nm, 570-1200nm, 550-1200nm, 400-1200nm.
It can also be connected to Er:YAG handpieces cleared under K173002.
The Discovery Pico Family systems, when operating with Pulsed laser sources and IPL, can be used in combination with optional contact, or air, cooling systems.
The optical delivery system is an articulated arm with fixed handpieces. The optical delivery system for the IPL system is a handpiece (Twain IPL) with fixed or interchangeable light filters at different wavelengths.
All the models belonging to the Discovery Pico Family have the same components and the same controlling software. The only difference between different models is the optical bench that depends on the sources installed.
The Discovery Pico Family is controlled via a touch screen display housed in the front of the device.
Emission is triggered by means of a footswitch.

The modified device Discovery Pico Family is derived from the legally marketed (unmodified) device Discovery Pico Family (K172376).
Performance Standards:
There are no mandatory performance standards for this device.
Description of the device (unchanged from K172376):
The Discovery Pico Family is a laser family that includes Q-Switched and/or Pulsed laser sources, emitting at one or more of the following wavelengths: 532 nm, 1064 nm, 694 nm (Ruby laser)
The Discovery Pico Family systems, through the special universal Twain connector, can be equipped with intense pulsed light handpieces (Twain IPL) emitting at the following wavelengths: 650-1200nm, 625-1200nm, 590-1200nm, 570-1200nm, 550-1200nm, 400-1200nm.
lt can also be connected to Er:YAG handpieces cleared under K173002.

The optical delivery system is an articulated arm with fixed handpieces. The optical delivery system for the IPL system is a handpiece (Twain IPL) with fixed or interchangeable light filters at different wavelengths.
All the models belonging to the Discovery Pico Family have the same components and the same controlling software. The only difference between different models is the optical bench that depends on the sources installed.
The Discovery Pico Family is controlled via a touch screen display housed in the front of the device.
Emission is triggered by means of a footswitch.
Description of the modifications:
This Special 510(k) is submitted due to the adding of microbeam handpieces to the already approved fractional handpieces, as per the table below:

- Thermal-histology performance data for fractional handpieces
- . Bench testing measurements were done to confirm the output of microbeam handpieces
Software Verification and Validation Testing
Software verification and validation testing were conducted and documentation was provided as recommended by FDA's Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices".
Biocompatibility:
The biocompatibility of the Discovery Pico Family is established based on the predicate devices.
Comparison with predicate device:
The subject device and its predicate have the same general intended use and technological characteristics.
Any minor differences do not present any new types of safety or effectiveness concerns since the Discovery Pico Family parameters are similar to or within the range of the predicate.
Summary
Testing of the Discovery Pico Family demonstrated that the device performs as intended. The Discovery Pico Family is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
