No
Explanation: The SofWave System is described as a non-invasive dermatological aesthetic treatment device for improving facial lines, wrinkles, lifting tissue, and improving the appearance of cellulite. It also has a module for improving muscle tone and firmness. Its primary purpose is aesthetic treatment, not diagnosis of a medical condition.
No
The device description clearly outlines hardware components including a console, applicator with ultrasonic transducers, and an Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) Module. While software is mentioned for control and user interface, it is integral to the function of these physical components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for non-invasive dermatological aesthetic treatments (improving lines/wrinkles, lifting tissue, improving cellulite, improving muscle tone). This is a direct treatment applied to the body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body.
- Device Description: The device uses ultrasound and electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) to directly interact with the patient's tissues. It does not analyze biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or any other biological sample. The device's function is to deliver energy to the body for therapeutic/aesthetic purposes.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

Technological Characteristics
The SofWave System is an ultrasound system intended for aesthetic purposes. The system generates high frequency ultrasonic pulses that elevate the temperature in the dermis layer and cause controlled isolated areas of thermal damage.
The SofMave System consists of three main functional components: 1) console: 2) applicator: and 3) Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) Module (Pure Impact). The console includes power sources, cooling unit, electrical components, IoT, BLE, and the user interface. The applicator is comprised of an array of ultrasonic transducers that emit continuous acoustic waves at 10-12 MHz and an active cooling element that is used to cool the skin area in contact with the applicator. The applicator is connected by a flexible cable to the console. The EMS module is wirelessly connected to and controlled by the SofWave console. It functions independently from the ultrasound system. The user selects either the ultrasound treatment or the EMS treatment, but not both, at the beginning of the treatment.
Comparison of Technological Characteristics with the Predicate Devices
The SofWave module is almost identical to the previous SoftWave device that was cleared in K240687, other than a few minor changes made to the hardware of the cleared device. These minor modifications do not change the treatment parameters or energy specification, nor do they present any new questions of safety or effectiveness.
The subject Pure Impact module is very similar to the predicate SofMave device that was cleared in K240687. No hardware changes were made to the cleared SofWave device's Pure Impact module. The software has been updated to allow the previously cleared plyometric protocol to arms. The Pure Impact module also has similar technology to the accufit predicate device (K233926). Both devices are electrical muscle stimulators that generate electrical impulses, which are delivered through electrodes on the skin in direct proximity to the muscles to be stimulated. Both devices contract muscles rhythmically to achieve the intended use of strengthening, firming, and toning the muscles of the arms, thighs, and buttocks. Both the Pure Impact module of SofMave system and accufit consist of a console with a touchscreen control panel and power supply module. For both devices, all system functions are controlled through the console. During a treatment session, one or more electrodes are secured to the patient, and electrical stimulation is delivered to the treatment area at the selected treatment mode and intensity.
The minor differences in the subject device's technological characteristics compared to the predicate devices do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness.

Performance Data
Performance testing, including design verification testing and electrical safety testing, confirmed the minor changes in the SofWave module did not raise different questions. The software modifications were evaluated through software verification testing, which was completed successfully with no major issues found. In all instances, the subject SoftWave System performed as intended.
Clinical Summary
No clinical test data was used to support the decision of substantial equivalence.
Conclusion
SofWave has the same general intended use and similar indications for use and technological characteristics as the predicate device. The addition of arms to the Pure Impact indications for use and minor technological differences between the subject and the predicate devices do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness. Performance testing has demonstrated that the device performs as intended. Thus, the SofWave System is substantially equivalent.
