Device Description

AI/ML Overview

I am sorry, but the provided text is a letter from the FDA regarding a 510(k) premarket notification for the CYNOSURE PhotoGenica LPIR Dermatological Laser. While it states the device's intended use for "hair reduction" and mentions its regulatory classification, it does not contain any information about acceptance criteria, specific studies, sample sizes, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, or multi-reader multi-case studies.

Therefore, I cannot fulfill your request to describe the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them from the given input. The letter focuses on the FDA's marketing clearance and regulatory compliance, not the technical details of the device's performance studies.
