The provided text describes a laser device for various dermatological and aesthetic procedures. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies summary. The technology described is based on established laser principles.
Yes
The device is intended for various medical treatments, including the treatment of benign pigmented and vascular lesions, wrinkles, acne, relief of muscle and joint pain and stiffness, and treatment of onychomycosis, all of which are considered therapeutic applications.
No
This device is a therapeutic laser system used for various dermatological and aesthetic treatments, not for diagnosing conditions. Its indications include hair reduction, treatment of skin lesions, wrinkles, acne, and pain relief.
No
The device description clearly states it is based on Nd:YAG and Alexandrite laser technology and includes a physical console, laser unit, optical fiber delivery system, and handpiece/scanner. These are hardware components, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The AvalancheLase Family is a laser system used for various dermatological and aesthetic treatments directly on the patient's body (hair reduction, lesion treatment, wrinkle treatment, etc.). It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The stated intended uses are all therapeutic or aesthetic procedures performed externally on the patient.
- Device Description: The description details a laser unit and delivery system, not equipment for analyzing biological samples.
Therefore, the AvalancheLase Family falls under the category of a therapeutic or aesthetic medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
The AvalancheLase Family is based on Nd:YAG (1064 nm) and Alexandrite (755 nm) laser technology. The laser unit and controls are contained in a single console. Electrical power is supplied to the console by the facility's power source. The unit combines two flashlamppumped laser sources in one housing, with optical cavities containing the Nd:YAG and Alexandrite crystals. A green diode aiming beam (520 mm) is combined with both therapeutic laser beams. The combined therapeutic and aiming beams are guided through an optical fiber delivery system to an optical manual handpiece or scanner.
The AvalancheLase Family is designed to operate in single wavelength (Nd:YAG or Alexandrite) configurations (models) and dual wavelength (Nd: YAG and Alexandrite) configurations (models).

Software verification/validation
AvalancheLase Family is a laser device controlled by software. Software verification and validation testing were conducted as recommended by FDA's Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices." The software for this device was considered as a "moderate" level of concern, since a failure or latent design flaw could directly result in minor injury to the patient or operator.
Biocompatibility
Biological evaluation according to ISO 10993-1 and the FDA guidance recommendations was performed on handpieces and scanner, which are the only parts that come in direct contact with the patient. Based on nature of body contact and the duration (time) of contact the following endpoints were considered: Physical and/or Chemical Information, Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, Irritation or Intracutaneous Reactivity, Material Mediated Pyrogenicity and Acute Systemic Toxicity.
Clinical Summary:
No premarket clinical investigations for AvalancheLase Family were conducted since the performance of the device under evaluation is based on well-established laser technology with long history of use for the same intended purpose and it is additionally sufficiently supported by clinical trials assessing performance and safety published in peer reviewed scientific journals.
Conclusions:
The AvalancheLase Family indications for use and technological characteristics do not raise new types of questions regarding safety and efficacy when compared to the predicates. Based on its technical characteristics, design, functional features, performance test data, and its indications for use as listed above, the AvalancheLase Family is considered to be as safe, as effective and to perform as well as the predicate devices.

Dear Tina Bartolic:
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
1
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/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.
