Indications for Use
The PicoSure™ workstation is indicated for tattoo and benign pigmented lesions removal. The PicoSure™ workstation with the 3mm and 6mm hand pieces and the Focus Array are indicated for the treatment of acne scars and wrinkles in Skin Types I-IV.
Device Story
PicoSure™ is a high-powered Alexandrite laser system (755-nm wavelength) used by clinicians in dermatology and plastic surgery. The system comprises a console housing power supply, control electronics, and laser source; energy is delivered to the skin via an articulated arm and activated by a footswitch. The device utilizes specific handpieces (3mm, 6mm) and a Focus Array lens to treat acne scars and wrinkles. By delivering short-pulse laser energy, the device targets skin tissue to improve appearance. Clinical outcomes are assessed by healthcare providers through visual evaluation of skin condition and wrinkle severity scales. The device benefits patients by providing a non-invasive method for tattoo removal, pigmented lesion clearance, and skin rejuvenation.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical study included 40 subjects (ages 47–64, Skin Types I–IV). Primary endpoints: correct identification of post-treatment photographs (target ≥80%) and Fitzpatrick Wrinkle Severity Scale (FWSS) improvement score (target ≥1). Results: 91% of 38 subjects correctly identified at 4-month follow-up; mean FWSS improvement score was 1.2. No deaths, serious adverse events, or unanticipated adverse device effects reported; observed events were typical laser treatment reactions.
Technological Characteristics
Alexandrite laser system; 755nm wavelength; 450ps-900ps pulse width; 6.37 J/cm² max average fluence; repetition rates 1, 2.5, 5, 10 Hz. Delivery via articulated arm with zoom (2-6mm) and fixed (2-10mm) handpieces, plus Focus Array (3mm, 6mm). Console-based; footswitch-activated. No specific material standards or software algorithm class provided.
Indications for Use
Indicated for tattoo and benign pigmented lesion removal; treatment of acne scars and wrinkles in patients with Skin Types I-IV.

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.

| Discussion of Clinical Study:<br>The study was performed using 40 subjects ages 47 – 64 whose skin types<br>ranged from I to IV. Before and after ( 4 months post treatment)<br>photographs were evaluated by three blinded evaluators, who were able to<br>identify correctly the before and after images in 91% of the 38 subjects that<br>returned for 4 month evaluation. The mean improvement score using the<br>Fitzpatrick Wrinkle Severity Scale at four months was 1.2 Therefore the<br>primary objectives of the study: correct identification of post treatment<br>photograph of 80% or greater and FWSS improvement score of "1" or<br>greater, have been met. There were no deaths, serious adverse events<br>(SAEs) or unanticipated adverse device effects (UADEs) reported in this<br>study. The events that were logged were typical reactions to laser<br>treatments | | | | |
