IPL Hair Removal Device is an over-the-counter device intended for removal of unwanted body hair and/or facial hair.
Device Description
IPL Hair Removal Device is an over-the-counter, home use, light based device for unwanted hair reduction by using Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology. The device works below the skin's surface and does not involve any cutting or pulling, removing hair growth with minimal pain. The device includes 12 models, they are M8011, M8013, M8015, M8021, M8022, M8023, M8025, M7011, M7012, M7021, M7023. Those models with model name of "M80XX" are equipped with cooling function for a better hair remove experience, while those of "M70XX" have no cooling function. The device is only powered by the external power adapter and its IPL emission activation is by a switch or auto light emission, and it contains a skin sensor to detect appropriate skin contact, if the light outlet is not in full contact with the skin, the device cannot emit light pulses.
More Information

No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, or related terms, and the device description focuses on standard IPL technology and safety features like a skin sensor.

No.
A therapeutic device is typically used to treat a disease, injury, or other medical condition. This device is intended for the cosmetic purpose of removing unwanted body and/or facial hair.

No
The device is described as an "IPL Hair Removal Device" intended for "removal of unwanted body hair and/or facial hair," which is a therapeutic purpose, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly details hardware components such as an external power adapter, a switch or auto light emission mechanism, a skin sensor, and the use of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology, which is a hardware-based light emission method.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "removal of unwanted body hair and/or facial hair." This is a cosmetic or therapeutic purpose, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details how the device works to reduce hair growth using IPL technology. It does not mention analyzing samples from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to diagnose a condition.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are defined as medical devices and accessories used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not fit this definition.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies listed are related to safety and performance of the device itself (biocompatibility, electrical safety, usability, photobiological safety), not the accuracy of a diagnostic test.

This device is a light-based therapeutic or cosmetic device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

No

The clearance letter explicitly states "Predetermined Change Control Plan (PCCP) - All Relevant Information for the subject device only (e.g. presence / absence, what scope was granted / cleared under the PCCP, any restrictions, etc). Not Found." This indicates that the device is not authorized as a PCCP device.

Dear Riley Chen:

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 (the 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/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.

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).

Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality System (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, 21 CFR 820.30, Design controls; 21 CFR 820.90, Nonconforming product; and 21 CFR 820.100, Corrective and preventive action. Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review, the QS regulation requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (21 CFR 820.30 and 21 CFR 820.70) and document changes and approvals in the device master record (21 CFR 820.181).

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 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reporting-combination-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 Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050.

All medical devices, including Class I and unclassified devices and combination product device constituent parts are required to be in compliance with the final Unique Device Identification System rule ("UDI Rule"). The UDI Rule requires, among other things, that a device bear a unique device identifier (UDI) on its label and package (21 CFR 801.20(a)) unless an exception or alternative applies (21 CFR 801.20(b)) and that the dates on the device label be formatted in accordance with 21 CFR 801.18. The UDI Rule (21 CFR 830.300(a) and 830.320(b)) also requires that certain information be submitted to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID) (21 CFR Part 830 Subpart E). For additional information on these requirements, please see the UDI System webpage at https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/device-advice-comprehensive-regulatory-assistance/unique-device-identification-system-udi-system.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 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-devices/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reporting-mdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.

For comprehensive regulatory information about medical devices and radiation-emitting products, including information about labeling regulations, please see Device Advice (https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/device-advice-comprehensive-regulatory-assistance) and CDRH Learn (https://www.fda.gov/training-and-continuing-education/cdrh-learn).
