Intended Use
The Elevare Plus is an Over-the-Counter (OTC) device intended for the use in treating wrinkles on the face.
Device Story
Elevare Plus is a battery-powered, handheld LED device for OTC facial wrinkle reduction. It emits red and infrared light (610, 630, 660, 850nm) via a 25-LED array. The user applies the device directly to the skin; integrated safety features include a skin contact sensor, fan, temperature sensor, and inactivity timer. The device operates on Li-ion rechargeable batteries. It is intended for daily use (3 minutes per area, 5 days/week for 8 weeks). The device helps improve skin appearance by delivering light energy to the face. Healthcare providers do not operate the device; it is for patient self-use.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Testing included electrical safety (IEC 60601-1), EMC (IEC 60601-1-2), biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1, -5, -10), photobiological safety (IEC 62471), and home healthcare environment standards (IEC 60601-1-11). Performance testing confirmed skin temperature remains within 41+/- 2 ºC (max 43ºC) and verified radiant flux and spectral distribution specifications.
Technological Characteristics
Handheld LED device; 25 LEDs over 17 cm2; wavelengths 610, 630, 660, 850nm (+/- 5nm); irradiance 65 mW/cm2 (+/- 5 mW); power source: 2 Li-ion rechargeable batteries. Safety features: skin contact sensor, fan, temperature sensor, inactivity timer. Conforms to IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 62471, and ISO 10993 standards.
Indications for Use
Indicated for individuals with wrinkles on the face for OTC use.

#### Summary of the technological characteristics of the device compared to the predicate device:
The Elevare Plus has the same indications for use, treatment time, and treatment regime as the predicate device. The proposed device uses a different infrared wavelength than the predicate device, however the sponsor's use of the 850nm is identical to the reference devices K120775 (LightStim for Wrinkles) and within +/- 5nm to the reference device K120560- (Trinity Wrinkle Remover). The sponsor is certain that the difference in number of LEDs, treatment surface area, and slightly different power output does not affect the safety or efficacy of the device as there are a wide range of number of LEDs and power output devices cleared under device code OHS. Scientific and Performance Data i.e. bench
{6}------------------------------------------------
testing and safety testing included in this submission shows the Elevare Plus device is substantially equivalent to the predicate and reference devices. Based on technology, similar design, wavelength parameters and treatment regime these differences between the Elevare Plus device and predicate device does not adversely affect the safety or efficacv of the device

The Elevare Plus device has been tested to ensure the device meets specifications:
#### PERFORMANCE TESTING:
#### . Software Validation Testing
The Elevare Plus device's software was tested and validated in accordance with FDA's "Guidance for the content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices."
#### . Skin Temperature Testing
Two devices were tested for heat output, with the treatment surface contacting the skin. Temperatures were recorded every 1 minute, up to 30 minutes, using a calibrated digital temperature sensor, around areas of the face. The test was performed under nominal use conditions and the device used in accordance with the recommended use approach (continuous movement during treatment). The test results concluded that the Elevare Plus device was within specification of 41+/- 2 ºC and did not elevate skin temperature above 43ºC.
#### . Wavelength/Power Output Testing
The Elevare Plus device was tested for the following optical and electrical characteristics to ensure product meets specifications:
- 1. Radiant Flux (Output energy), W
- 2. Output energy Spectral distribution, W/nm
### PREDICATE COMPARISON TESTING:
Evaluation testing was done on several FDA cleared devices that have the same indications for use i.e. treating wrinkles on the face.
The devices were evaluated for total power output and specific irradiance levels (Spectral Flux was measured) for each of the stated wavelengths cited in the respective device's 510k Summary.
The conclusion from this testing demonstrated that the Elevare Plus device is substantially equivalent to other legally marketed devices.
#### 8. Substantial Equivalence Conclusion
After an analysis of the safety, indications, intended uses, performance, design materials, power output, technological properties, treatment areas, treatment regimes and methods of operation, the manufacturer believes that no significant differences exist between the device and the predicate and reference devices and no new issues arise for safety and effectiveness. Therefore substantial equivalency is hereby requested.
