{1}------------------------------------------------
The FaceMaster System is a transcutaneous electrical stimulator that incorporates a control module and two electrodes on separate, handheld probes to deliver electrical stimulation to the face muscles. The device is prepared for use by laying it flat on a table, opening the control module cover and removing the probes from their cradles inside the control module. Conductive solution is dispensed into a basin within the control module and, after placing the foam pads over the distal end of each probe the pads are soaked in the solution until they are moist. The user then pushes the power (ON/OFF) button to turn the device on and follows the instructions for use and the LCD and audible prompts from the control module to complete the three cosmetic stimulation modes, i.e., the eye cycle, the facial cycle, and the feathering cycle.
### Performance Data
The FaceMaster Facial Toning System complies with FDA's performance standard for electrode lead wires and patient cables set forth in 21 C.F.R. § 898.12. A clinical study of the FaceMaster System, which included testing both with trained observers and self-assessments, was completed to demonstrate the substantial equivalence of the FaceMaster System to other transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulator devices for OTC cosmetic use.
#### Substantial Equivalence
The FaceMaster System is substantially equivalent to other legally marketed transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulator devices for cosmetic use. Specifically, the FaceMaster System is substantially equivalent to Salton, Inc.'s Rejuvenique® Facial Toning System ("Rejuvenique" or the "predicate device"). The FaceMaster System has the same intended use and the same indication for use as the Rejuvenique. The device also has similar technological characteristics as its predicate device. Minor differences in the technological characteristics of the FaceMaster System and the Rejuvenique do not raise any new issues of safety or effectiveness. Thus, the FaceMaster System is substantially equivalent.
