| Device Description | The IPL Therapy Systems (ST-AI) is an intense pulsed<br>light system which delivers intense pulsed light at a<br>wavelength ranging from 640nm-1200nm. Intense Pulsed<br>Light (IPL) systems work on the principles of selective<br>photothermolysis. That is, causing thermal damage to target<br>chromophores by using light of appropriate wavelength in |
{1}------------------------------------------------
pulses that exceeds the chromophores' thermal relaxation time but sparing normal skin by limiting the pulse width below the thermal relaxation time for skin. IPL Therapy system is different from lasers in that they deliver many wavelengths in each pulse of light instead of just one wavelength. Generally, IPL enhances penetration without using excessive energy levels and enables targeting of specific chromophores. Based on this, the IPL Therapy Systems (inclusive of the handpiece used to deliver pulsed-light energy) is indicated for use in surgical, aesthetic and cosmetic applications in the hair removal. Test Conclusion The IPL Therapy Systems is designed, tested and will be manufactured in accordance with both mandatory and voluntary standards, including: IEC 60601-1, Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1: General Requirements for Safety, 1988; Amendment 1, 1991-11, Amendment 2, 1995. IEC 60601-1-2, Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1-2: General Requirements for Safety - Collateral standard: Electromagnetic Compatibility - Requirements and Tests (Edition 2: 2001 with Amendment 1: 2004; Edition 2.1 (Edition 2: 2001 consolidated with Amendment 1:2004) SE Determination The proposed device is Substantially Equivalent (SE) to the predicate device which is US legally market device. Therefore, the subject device is determined as safe and effectiveness. Intended The IPL Therapy Systems (inclusive of the handpieces used Use/Indication for Use to deliver pulsed-light energy) is indicated for use in surgical. aesthetic and cosmetic applications in the hair removal at a wavelength ranging from 640nm-1200nm.
