The Dye VL Handpiece (500-600 nm) is indicated for: - The treatment of benign pigmented lesions including café -au-lait (macules), lentigines (senile and solar), freckles (ephelides), chloasma, nevi, nevus spillus, nevus of Ota, and Becker's Nevi. - The treatment of other pigmented cutaneous lesions including verrucae, skin tags, keratosis, and plaques. - The treatment of benign cutaneous vascular lesions including port wine stains, hemangiomas, facial, truncal and leg telangiectasias, rosacea, erythema of rosacea, angiomas and spider angiomas, poikiloderma of Civatte, leg veins and venous malformations. - Use on skin types (Fitzpatrick I-V).
Device Story
Harmony XL Multi-Application Platform is a console-based laser/light system for dermatological procedures. The Dye VL handpiece delivers intense pulsed light (500-600 nm) to target pigmented and vascular cutaneous lesions. The system comprises a console, footswitch, and interchangeable handpieces; it utilizes a system controller, power supply, and cooling system. Operated by clinicians in a clinical setting, the device emits light energy absorbed by chromophores in the skin to treat lesions. The output is controlled via the console interface. Benefits include non-invasive treatment of various skin conditions. The device is a modification of existing cleared platforms, maintaining identical principles of operation.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Evidence includes software verification and validation, electrical safety testing per IEC 60601-1, electromagnetic compatibility testing per IEC 60601-1-2, and biocompatibility testing of patient-contacting components per ISO 10993.
Technological Characteristics
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) instrument. Wavelength: 500-600 nm. Console-based system with system controller, power supply, cooling system, and footswitch. Patient-contacting components tested for biocompatibility per ISO 10993. Electrical safety per IEC 60601-1; EMC per IEC 60601-1-2. Fitzpatrick skin types I-V.
Indications for Use
Indicated for treatment of benign pigmented lesions (e.g., café-au-lait, lentigines, freckles, chloasma, nevi), other pigmented cutaneous lesions (verrucae, skin tags, keratosis, plaques), and benign cutaneous vascular lesions (port wine stains, hemangiomas, telangiectasias, rosacea, angiomas, poikiloderma, leg veins) in patients with Fitzpatrick skin types I-V.

# Device Description
The Harmony XL™ continues to be comprised of the identical console unit, footswitch, and a variety of handpieces. The main console of the Harmony XL™ continues to consist of the same control panel, system controller, power supply modules, cooling system, switching module, and isolation transformer.
## Comparison of Technological Characteristics
The subject change is to add a version of the 515-950 nm SVL515 Module AFT handpiece ("SVL515") provided in the company's cleared Harmony XL™ (K072564) to the Harmony XL™ system. The modified handpiece has a narrowed wavelength range of 500-600 nm as compared to the SVL515 handpiece that has a wavelength of 515-950 nm. In addition, the modified handpiece is named the "Dye VL handpiece." Further, the identification color of the distal end of the handpiece is being changed from turquoise to light green.
With regard to indications for use, the intended use/indications for use of the Dye VL handpiece are the same as the primary and secondary predicate devices. Specifically, the Dye VL handpiece consists of a subset of the indications for use of the 532 nm Long Pulsed and Q-Switched FD Nd: YAG Laser Module Handpiece ("532 nm handpiece") included in the primary predicate. Both the subject handpiece and the 532 nm handpiece are indicated for the treatment of benign pigmented lesions including café-au-lait (macules), lentigines (senile and solar), freckles (ephelides), chloasma, nevi, nevus spillus, nevus of Ota, Becker's Nevi and other pigmented cutaneous lesions including verrucae, skin tags, keratosis, and plaques. Further, the indications for use of both the subject Dye VL handpiece and the SVL515 included in both the primary and secondary predicate device are indicated for the treatment of benign cutaneous vascular lesions including port wine stains, hemangiomas, facial, truncal and leg telangiectasias, rosacea, erythema of rosacea, angiomas and spider angiomas, poikiloderma of Civatte, leg veins and venous malformations and are indicated to be used on skin types Fitzpatrick I-V. Therefore, the indications for use of the subject device are the same as its predicates.
### Performance Data
- . Software verification and validation was performed, and demonstrates that the software performs as intended.
- . Electrical safety (IEC 60601-1) and electromagnetic compatibility (IEC 60601-1-2) was established.
- Biocompatibility of patient-contacting components was established per ISO 10993. .
In all instances, the subject device functions as intended and meets all the same acceptance criteria as the predicate devices.
### Substantial Equivalence
The Harmony XLT™ has the same intended use/indications for use, as well as very similar
{5}------------------------------------------------
technological characteristics, and identical principles of operation as its predicate devices. The minor technological differences between the subject and predicate devices do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.
# Conclusion
The minor technological differences between the subject and predicate devices do not raise new or different questions of safety or effectiveness. Design verification activities demonstrated that the device performs as intended and thus is substantially equivalent.
