Intended Use

The Diode Laser Therapy Device is indicated for permanent reduction in hair regrowth defined as a 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. It is suitable for all skin types (Fitzpatrick skin type I-VI), including tanned skin.

Device Description

The Diode Laser Therapy Devices is designed to be used in dermatological practice for stable, long term hair reduction. The principle of laser hair removal is selective photothermolysis. The wavelength of 810nm, 755, and 1064nm would be able to effectively penetrate deep into and absorbed by the target chromophore. The laser power is delivered to the treatment region via a delivery system. The proposed device includes power supply system, delivery system, control system, cooling system, laser system. The 755nm, 810nm, 1064nm handpieces with different treatment size are available for different models.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for a Diode Laser Therapy Device. However, it explicitly states "VIII Clinical Testing: It is not applicable." Therefore, the document does not contain information about clinical studies with acceptance criteria, sample sizes, expert ground truth establishment, MRMC studies, or standalone performance for an AI/CADe device.

The information you are requesting typically applies to the clinical evaluation of AI/CADe devices, often involving extensive human reader studies and ground truthing. This document is for a laser therapy device, and its clearance process does not involve such studies for proving device performance in the same way an AI/CADe device would.

Therefore, I cannot populate the table or answer the questions related to acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them based on the provided text. The document focuses on non-clinical testing (electrical safety, electromagnetic compatibility, biocompatibility) to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

Dear Claire Zhang:

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/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.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

{1}------------------------------------------------

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/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); 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 (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 https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.

The indication of proposed device is covered by the predicated device. The proposed device is only intended to use for hair removal. The device includes seven models for clearance in this submission. The differences between models are the treatment area, laser energy density, pulse frequency, pulse width. These are covered by the predicated device. The different wavelengths (755nm/810nm/1064nm) are available for all models. The proposed device does not have NIR Modules or Trio Diode Laser modules (combining wavelengths) compared to the predicate device. The minor differences in indication do not alter the use of the proposed device.
