#### Device Description:
The InMode Hair Removal (HR) device is designed to deliver optical energy to the skin via a pre-cooled sapphire block. The good optical contact between sapphire block and skin is achieved by using water based gel. The device provides individual adjustment of light fluence and pulse duration to achieve maximum efficiency and safety for each patient. The scanning system embedded into the laser InMode HR hand piece allows efficient treatment with less risk of overlap. The hand piece has integrated skin cooling to enhance safety and comfort of the treatment.
The InMode Hair Removal device consists of an AC/DC power supply unit, a diode driver, water cooling system, controller and user interface including an LCD screen and functional buttons. The diode laser hand piece is connected to the console via a cable and a foot switch activates the energy delivery to the hand piece. The hand piece comprises the InMode HR laser with linear scanning system, cooled sapphire output window (8 x 50mm), and electronic shutter.
The sapphire light guide is located on the front tip of the hand piece and delivers the laser beam energy to the treated tissue, while cooling the skin. The pair of thermoelectric coolers (TECs) located on both sides of the sapphire block provide cooling to a temperature of 4°C. The hand piece contains a trigger button which starts the laser scan and radiation. Fluence (light energy density) is delivered within the limits of 10 to 60J/cm2. The hand piece has a cable that is 170cm long and connects to the hand piece to the console via a connector.
### Intended Use/Indication for Use:
The InMode Hair Removal (HR) device is indicated for use for hair removal.
### Performance Standards:
The InMode Hair Removal (HR) Device has been tested and complies with the following voluntary recognized standards:
- IEC 60601-1, Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1: General Requirements for ● Safety, 1988; Amendment 1, 1991-11, Amendment 2, 1995
- IEC 60601-1-2, (Second Edition, 2001), Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1-. 2: General Requirements for Safety - Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic Compatibility -- Requirements and Tests
- IEC 60825-1 Safety of laser products, Part 1: Equipment classification and . requirements;
- IEC 60601-2-22 Medical Electrical Equipment Part 2-22: Particular . requirements for basic safety and essential performance of surgical, cosmetic, therapeutic and diagnostic laser equipment;
- IEC 60601-1-4 Medical electrical equipment Part 1-4:General requirements for safety - Collateral Standard: Programmable electrical medical systems
{2}------------------------------------------------
### Non-Clinical Performance Data:
Additionally, bench tests were conducted comparing the InMode Hair Removal (HR) device laser output parameters to those of the Leda EPI 808 predicate device. The results of the bench test demonstrate that the InMode HR device has the same laser output specifications as the predicate Leda EPI 808 device and therefore, is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
#### Clinical Performance Data:
Not Applicable
#### Substantial Equivalence:
The indications for use of the InMode Hair Removal (HR) device are substantially equivalent to the indications for use of the LightSheer and the Leda EPI 808 predicate devices. The design and components in the InMode Hair Removal (HR) device, including the console (with power supply, software, cooling system and touch screen user interface), the water-cooled hand piece (with cable and connector to console) and the foot switch are similar to the design and components found in the LightSheer and Leda EPI 808 predicate devices. The performance specifications (including wavelength; fluence, pulse width, pulse repetition rate, spot size and cooling) in InMode Hair Removal (HR) device are similar to performance specifications in the LightSheer and Leda EPI 808 predicate devices. These safety features in the InMode Hair Removal (HR) device are substantially equivalent to the safety features found in the predicate devices. The performance tests demonstrated that any minor differences in the device software and specifications meet the system requirements and do not raise new safety or effectiveness concerns. Consequently, the InMode Hair Removal (HR) device is substantially equivalent to the LightSheer predicate device, cleared under 510(k) K001746, and to the Leda. EPI 808 predicate device, cleared in 510(k) submission K090762, and therefore, may be legally marketed in the USA.
#### Conclusions:
Based on the performance testing and comparison to predicate devices, the InMode Hair Removal (HR) device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices listed above.
