Intended Use

The IPL Hair Removal Device is an over-the-counter device intended for removal of unwanted body and/or facial hair.

Device Description

IPL Hair Removal Device, is an over-the-counter, home-use device for unwanted hair reduction by using Intense Pulsed Light (PL), and it has been designed 3 models with the same IPL technology for hair removal, which is model JM-843, M-865, JM-638. The device works below the skin's surface and does not involve any cutting or pulling, reducing hair growth with minimal pain. The device is only powered by the external power adapter and its IPL emission is by finger switch. IPL Hair Removal Device is a Pulsed Light system which emits intense pulsed light (IPL) at a wavelength ranging from 530-1200m and 500-1200m. The device works on the principles of selective photothermolysis. That is, causing thermal damage to target chromophores by using light of appropriate wavelength in pulses that exceeds the chromophores thermal relaxation time but sparing normal skin by limiting the thermal relaxation time for skin.

AI/ML Overview

This document does not contain information about acceptance criteria for a device's performance in a clinical study for hair removal, nor does it describe a study proving the device meets such criteria.

The provided text is an FDA 510(k) summary for an IPL Hair Removal Device (models JM-843, JM-865, JM-638). This summary focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices, primarily through:

  • Comparison of technological characteristics: This involves comparing specifications like wavelength, energy density, spot size, pulse duration, and power supply.
  • Performance data from bench testing: This includes biocompatibility, electrical safety, EMC, eye safety, software verification, and a "Verification Report of Times of Flash" (service life of the lamp tube).

The document does not include:

  • Clinical acceptance criteria for hair removal efficacy (e.g., percentage of hair reduction after a certain period).
  • Results from a clinical study on human subjects to evaluate hair removal performance.
  • Details about a test set (sample size, data provenance, ground truth establishment, expert qualifications, or adjudication methods) for assessing hair removal efficacy.
  • Information on MRMC comparative effectiveness studies or standalone algorithm performance for hair removal.
  • Details about a training set for an AI/algorithm related to hair removal efficacy.

The "Performance Data" section primarily addresses safety and technical performance aspects of the device, not its biological effectiveness in hair removal on humans. The conclusion states that "the subject device IPL Hair Removal Device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the legally marketed predicate device," but this "effectiveness" is primarily inferred from the similarity of technological characteristics to predicate devices that are presumably already accepted for hair removal.

Dear Youshan Gong:

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 (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 available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrb/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

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

Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).

Note 1:

{10}------------------------------------------------

Though the dimension is different from the predicate device, this difference is insignificant and do not raise any safety or effectiveness problems.

Note 2:

Though the energy density and the output energy of subject device is a little different from the predicate device and reference device, consider the error ±20%, the energy density and the output energy of subject device is similar to the predicate device and reference device, and they all comply with IEC 62471 requirements, so this difference will not raise any safety or effectiveness issue.

Note 3:

There is minor difference in spot size between the subject device. The spot size is related to energy density while the energy density of subject device is the same as explained in Note 2, so this difference is not significant and will not raise any safety or effectiveness issue.

VIII.Performance Data
