Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Performance testing was conducted to confirm compliance to design specifications. All functions of the modified products have been verified to operate as designed, and all acceptance criteria were met by the new devices. The Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps conforms to the following recognized standards: IEC-60601-1, IEC-60601-11, IEC-60601-2-22 (2007/Third Ed.), and IEC-60825-1 (Ed. 3). This report validates for the Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps the laser class of 3R which establishes the AEL (accessible emission limits) as 5 milliWatts maximum. The charger conforms to IEC 61959. The performance data demonstrates that the Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps has exactly the same diode laser and LED wavelengths, output power (per diode laser or LED), and treatment area as the Bosley Revitalizer 272, 164 and 96 Laser Caps cleared under K181253 and K192585. Total "dose" - delivered energy over time - (J/cm 3) may vary slightly due to the variations in the number of laser diodes and/or LEDs utilized in the various models. However, since the cap is intended to be used indefinitely (if treatment is stopped, results are lost), it is believed that the slight variations in the number of laser diodes and/or LEDs utilized will only affect the time required to witness the same result as achieved with the Bosley Revitalizer 272, 164 and 96 Laser Caps. Just as for the Bosley Revitalizer 272, 164 and 96 Laser Caps and predicate devices cited, there have been no reported adverse events for these products.

Technological Characteristics
The Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps incorporates the same technology as the Bosley Revitalizer 96, 272 and 164 Laser Caps in every way except the following:
The Bosley Booster 128 has 51 red, visible light laser diodes (LDs) and 77 light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The Bosley Booster 162 has 65 red, visible light laser diodes (LDs) and 97 lightemitting diodes (LEDs). The Bosley Booster 288 has 115 red, visible light laser diodes (LDs) and 173 light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The LDs and LEDs utilized all have a wavelength of 650 nanometers and a power output of 5 mW each, and are configured within an outer cap and protective inner liner, configured for portable use with rechargeable battery and adapter.
The predicate Bosley Revitalizer 164 Laser Cap utilizes 164 red, visible light, diode lasers operating at 650 nanometers, configured within an outer cap and protective inner liner, and configured for portable use with rechargeable battery and adapter. The Bosley Revitalizer 272 Laser Cap utilizes 272 red, visible light, diode lasers operating at 650 nanometers, configured within an outer cap and protective inner, and configured for portable use with rechargeable battery and adapter. The Bosley Revitalizer 96 Laser Cap utilizes 96 red, visible light, diode lasers operating at 650 nanometers, configured within an outer helmet and protective inner liner, and configured for portable use with rechargeable battery and adapter. Just as with the Bosley Revitalizer 272, 164 and 96 Laser Caps, the Bosley Booster Family of laser Caps can detect whether or not the device is in the correct position on the user's head and will automatically pause therapy if it is not. The devices will resume therapy when the correct head position is reestablished. The system is powered by rechargeable Lithium-ion battery cells assembled into a proprietary battery pack. Both the battery pack and charger are fully compliant with recognized, international standards.
Design Control Activities:
The Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps design and development team followed ANSI/AAMI/ISO 14971:2007/(R)2010 Risk Management: Medical devices - Application of risk management to medical devices. Significant changes include assessing the effects different numbers of diode lasers and/or LEDs would have on the end product, both for safety and for efficacy. All residual risks have been found to be acceptable. Based on the Bosley Revitalizer 272, 164 and 96 Laser Caps, the verification and validation activities remain the same (e.g. output of each laser diode or LED, operation of safety interface, and output of power pack), and
6
were performed and assessed by designated personnel qualified to perform such activities. All methods, tests, and acceptance criteria are stipulated on the verification and validation reports.
Safety ratings remained the same; there was no change to the output of the individual laser diodes or LEDs (≤ 5mw); however, the "dose" (total delivered energy/cm2) may vary slightly due to number of laser diodes and/or LEDs utilized. This may affect efficacy; this observation is made based on the performance of other devices similar to the Bosley Revitalizer and Booster Family of Laser Caps that are currently cleared under device code OAP and utilize a wide variety of numbers of laser diodes and/or LEDs.
Instructions for use with the Boster Family of Laser Caps do not change materially from the instructions provided with the Bosley Revitalizer 272, 164 and 96 Laser Caps. Indications for use and the dose schedule remain similar to those utilized for the Bosley Revitalizer 272, 164 and 96 Laser Caps and as for other devices in the same category (product code OAP); which is for a treatment duration of 25 minutes each day. The laser diodes and LEDs was verified to remain the same (each diode and LED) as for the predicate models. Design control activities were followed per 21 CFR 820.30:
- a) General: The Beijing Toplaser Technology Co., Ltd. Quality Management System is compliant to the requirement of the quality system regulation and specifically to design controls as stipulated by 21 CFR 820.30. The main design activities included the following: 1.) identification of product technical solutions; 2.) risk analysis; and 3.) product validation.
- b) Design and development planning: During project planning activities, the risks were identified and assessed with respect to the design changes for the Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps. The proposed design change was minimal and affected only the number of laser diodes and LEDs utilized in each PCB array. The power packs remain exactly the same. Review of the risk assessment from the previous models revealed no significant changes or risks identified for the new Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps. Vigilance activities for the Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps indicated that there were no significant problems identified (no adverse events reported).
- c) Design input: Design requirements for the Bosley Revitalizer 272, 164 Laser Caps have been transferred to the Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps and an input/output matrix was completed for the project.
- d) Design output: Design requirements for the Bosley Revitalizer 272, 164 and 96 Laser Caps have also been transferred to the Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps. Design outputs are verified per performance tests.
- e) Design review: Appropriate design reviews were conducted. Due to the minimal modifications made (i.e., only the variations in the number of laser diodes and LEDs
7
utilized), a technical evaluation and a verification of inputs and outputs (physical values) were completed.
- f) Design verification: All verification activities to assess the impact of the modifications (i.e., the variations in the number of laser diodes and LEDs utilized) were completed. It was determined that the total power output remained the same, but the total dosage mav vary due to the variations in the number of laser diodes and LEDs utilized with the new models. Since the cap is intended to be used indefinitely (if treatment is stopped the results are lost), the variations in the numbers of laser diodes and LEDs will likely affect only the time required for users to experience the same results as achieved with the Bosley Revitalizer 272, 164 and 96 Laser Caps. The Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps is offered as a lower-cost alternative to the earlier models.
- g) Design validation: Feedback from hair restoration specialists and consumers indicate that a lower-cost alternative is desired. The modestly lower efficacy is accepted by users, with the understanding that treatment is intended to be continued indefinitely.
- h) Design Transfer: The Boster Family of Laser Caps are manufactured on-site in the facility of the manufacturer in Beijing, China. Design transfer was minimal; training requirement to the new PCB was minimal, and all other components (including overall build) remained the same.
- Design changes: The design of all models follows the manufacturer's established design i) control, change control, and document control procedures.
- Design history: The design history file for the Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps i) affirms that appropriate design reviews were conducted. Due to the minimal modifications made from previously-cleared models, a technical evaluation and a verification of inputs and outputs (physical values) were completed.
Performance Data:
All verification and validation activities were performed by designated individuals.
The product design change (reduction of number of laser diodes) was carried out in accordance with the control requirements of design and development activities as detailed in ISO13485 and CFR820, and records of all activities have been maintained.
The Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps is comprised of new models modified on the basis of the Bosley Revitalizer 272, 164 and 96 Laser Caps. With the new models the number of laser diodes utilized along with LEDs varies slightly between the different models. The parameters of the laser diodes and LEDs such as wavelength, and output power remain unchanged. The control method, software and usage method also remain the same as with the Bosley Revitalizer 272,
8
164 and 96 Laser Caps. The risk analysis method utilized was failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA)-- a step-by-step approach for identifying all possible failures in a design, a manufacturing or assembly process, or a product or service. FMEA incorporates each of the following risk analysis components:
- "Failure modes" (the ways, or modes, in which something might fail. Failures are any errors or defects, especially ones that affect the customer, and can be potential or actual);
- "Effects analysis" (refers to studying the consequences of those failures). Failures are . prioritized according to how serious their consequences are, how frequently they occur, and how easily they can be detected. The purpose of FMEA is to take actions to eliminate or reduce failures, starting with the highest-priority failures. Failure modes and effects analysis also documents current knowledge and actions about the risks of failures, for use in continuous improvement. FMEA is initially used during design to prevent failures, but after production has begun it is used for control, before and during ongoing operation of the process.
Based on the risk analysis report produced for the Bosley Revitalizer 272, 164 and 96 Laser Caps, the risks caused by variations in the numbers of laser diodes and LEDs utilized in these models have been analyzed one by one. The conclusion is that there is no new unacceptable risk due to the reduced number of laser diodes. New product samples of the Bosley Booster models have been tested to meet the requirements and the test methods utilized and were identical to the test methods utilized for the Bosley Revitalizer 272, 164 and 96 Laser Caps. Due to changes in product specifications, the identification labels have been modified and a new user manual has been created for the Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps.
Due to variations in the number of laser diodes and LEDs utilized with the different models, the corresponding product bills of materials have also been modified. There is, however, no change in the manufacturing process flow. The results of the verification and validation activities demonstrate that the predetermined acceptance criteria were met.
Performance testing was conducted to confirm compliance to design specifications. All functions of the modified products have been verified to operate as designed, and all acceptance criteria were met by the new devices. The Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps conforms to the following
9
recognized standards: IEC-60601-1, IEC-60601-11, IEC-60601-2-22 (2007/Third Ed.), and IEC60825-1 (Ed. 3). These IEC standards are recognized and accepted standards by the FDA. The guidance document for these standards is found in the Federal register, July 26, 2001 (volume 66, Number 144). This report validates for the Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps the laser class of 3R which establishes the AEL (accessible emission limits) as 5 milliWatts maximum. The charger conforms to IEC 61959. The performance data demonstrates that the Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps has exactly the same diode laser and LED wavelengths, output power (per diode laser or LED), and treatment area as the Bosley Revitalizer 272, 164 and 96 Laser Caps cleared under K181253 and K192585. Total "dose" - delivered energy over time - (J/cm 3) may vary slightly due to the variations in the number of laser diodes and/or LEDs utilized in the various models. However, since the cap is intended to be used indefinitely (if treatment is stopped, results are lost), it is believed that the slight variations in the number of laser diodes and/or LEDs utilized will only affect the time required to witness the same result as achieved with the Bosley Revitalizer 272, 164 and 96 Laser Caps. Just as for the Bosley Revitalizer 272, 164 and 96 Laser Caps and predicate devices cited, there have been no reported adverse events for these products.

Conclusion
The submitter believes that with the exception of slight variations in the number of laser diodes and LEDs utilized and slight differences in the configuration of the optical elements, the Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps are the same devices in form, function, safety, and efficacy as the previous Bosley versions and the predicate device(s) cited above. The submitter believes that the minor differences in the physical appearance, the number of laser diodes and/or LEDs utilized, or in the method of delivering the radiant energy of the systems is of no consequence and does not affect the therapeutic value or the safety profile.
All compliant LLLT systems which use red light diode lasers are classified as class 3R laser systems by the IEC standard for allowable emission levels, which is a recognized standard by the FDA as well, and the adverse event profile is the same. For these reasons, the Bosley Booster Family of Laser Caps satisfies the FDA's requirements (for device modification) with respect to intended use, and technological and design characteristics. Additionally, no new safety or efficacy concerns are raised due to the minor differences between these devices.
