Intended Use

The Equinox CO 2 laser when used in traditional non-fractionated scanner mode is indicated for incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, and coagulation of body soft tissues. The Equinox CO 2 laser when used in fractionated mode is indicated for ablative skin resurfacing.

Device Story

Equinox CO2 Laser System (10,600nm wavelength) delivers thermal energy to epidermis and upper dermis. System comprises main body, color touch screen, arm, hand-piece, and foot switch. In non-fractionated mode, used for soft tissue surgery (incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, coagulation). In fractionated mode, uses scanning optics to deliver patterned thermal energy for skin resurfacing. Operated by clinicians in clinical settings. Output is laser energy; healthcare providers use device to perform surgical or dermatological procedures. Benefits include precise tissue interaction and controlled thermal damage for resurfacing.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Histology study performed on human arm tissue to evaluate thermal damage zones (depth/width) at energy levels up to 70mJ per microbeam. Measurements recorded at day 0, day 3, and day 14 post-treatment to assess healing response. No clinical study data provided.

Technological Characteristics

10,600nm CO2 laser; scanning optics for fractional delivery; system includes main body, color touch screen, arm, hand-piece, and foot switch. Class II device (21 CFR 878.4810).

Indications for Use

Indicated for incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, and coagulation of body soft tissues (non-fractionated mode) and ablative skin resurfacing (fractionated mode).

Regulatory Classification

Identification

(1) A carbon dioxide laser for use in general surgery and in dermatology is a laser device intended to cut, destroy, or remove tissue by light energy emitted by carbon dioxide.(2) An argon laser for use in dermatology is a laser device intended to destroy or coagulate tissue by light energy emitted by argon.
