The summary describes a physical implant made of silicone elastomer with specific material properties. There is no mention of software, algorithms, data processing, or any terms related to AI/ML.
No
The device is an implant for augmentation or reconstruction of malar eminence deficiencies, which is a structural or cosmetic purpose, not a therapeutic one that treats a disease or condition.
No.
The device is described as an implant for augmentation or reconstruction of malar eminence deficiencies, which is a therapeutic rather than diagnostic function.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a physical implant made from liquid elastomer materials, not software.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description: The description clearly states that the Pillar Malar Implant is a physical implant made from silicone elastomer materials. It is designed to be surgically implanted into the body for augmentation or reconstruction.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the augmentation or reconstruction of malar eminence deficiencies. This is a surgical procedure, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
The information provided describes a medical device intended for surgical implantation, not a diagnostic test performed outside the body.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The intended use of the Pillar Malar Implant is to augment or reconstruct facial malar deformities caused by facial trauma or congenital defects. The Pillar Malar Implant is implanted using the same accepted surgical methods of the predicate device.
Each Pillar Malar Implant is indicated for the augmentation or reconstruction of malar eminence deficiencies, whether congenital or acquired by trauma or disease.

Device Description
The Pillar Malar Implant is made from identical liquid elastomer materials and manufacturing processes as the predicate device.
The physical properties of this device are the same as the predicate device in that equivalent materials will be used in manufacturing. The raw materials are Nusil's MED 4211 unrestricted silicone fluid from Nusil Technologies, Inc. The durometers or hardness (shore A) of each implant will range from 5 to 30. The appearance is described as clear to opaque. Tensile strength averages 700 psi and the percent of elongation is over 400 percent. Raw material are certified and tested to comply with the requirements of the manufacturer. For more information, see FDA master-file MAF 612.

Dear Mr. Fritzenkotter:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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 (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (OS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
