Indications for Use
The EON (1064nm laser) is intended for non-invasive lipolysis of the abdomen and flanks to achieve disruption of adipocyte cells intended for non-invasive aesthetic use to achieve a desired aesthetic effect. It is intended for individuals with a Body Mass Index of 30 or less.
Device Story
EON is a 1064nm diode laser system for non-invasive lipolysis of abdomen and flanks. Operated by clinicians in a clinic setting, the device uses a robotic arm to position a non-contact treatment head over the target area. The system delivers concurrent 1064nm laser energy and jet impingement cooling air. The laser heats adipose tissue to 42°C–50°C to induce adipocyte apoptosis, while the cooling system maintains skin temperature below 43°C. The device monitors skin temperature in real-time and automatically terminates laser emission if the temperature exceeds 43°C. By reducing subcutaneous adipose tissue, the device improves the appearance of visible fat bulges, providing aesthetic benefits to patients. The system operates on 110V power.
Clinical Evidence
Prospective clinical study evaluated safety and efficacy for flank fat reduction. 33 subjects treated for 20 minutes. Primary endpoint: blinded photo evaluation (success defined as 2 of 3 readers correctly identifying ≥9 of 11 pre/post sets). Results: 81.8% (27/33) sets correctly scored; study success achieved. Secondary endpoints: mean subcutaneous adipose thickness reduction of 6.1 mm per flank (12.1 mm per patient, -15%, p<0.01) at 12 weeks. Mean pain score 1.95/10 during procedure. One adverse event (palpable thickening) resolved by 12 weeks. 100% subject satisfaction.
Indicated for non-invasive lipolysis of abdomen and flanks in individuals with BMI ≤ 30 to disrupt adipocyte cells for aesthetic fat reduction.

## 5-3 Predicate Device
Cynosure, Inc., Sculpsure, K160470
## 5-4 Device Description
EON aesthetic laser system is 1064nm diode laser device that is intended for non-invasive lipolysis of the abdomen and flanks in individuals with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or less. This wavelength is used to affect the appearance of visible fat bulges in the abdomen and flanks.
Both laser energy and cooling air are delivered concurrently through the same treatment head that is positioned by a robotic arm. The treatment head is never in contact with the skin.
During treatment, the desired area will be defined by the physician and will be treated with the 1064nm laser over a 20-minute timeframe. The mechanism of action is to preferentially heat the adipose tissue to temperatures that will induce apoptosis (42°C to 50°C). The cooling system will maintain the skin at comfortable temperature (<43°C).
## 5-5 Indications for Use
The EON (1064nm laser) is intended for non-invasive lipolysis of the abdomen and flanks to achieve disruption of adipocyte cells intended for non-invasive aesthetic use to achieve a desired aesthetic effect. It is intended for individuals with a Body Mass Index of 30 or less.

## 5.7.4 Summary of the Clinical Study Conducted
## 5.7.4.1 Objectives
The primary objective of this study was to confirm the safety of a1064-nm laser device with a novel robotic arm for noninvasive subcutaneous fat reduction in the flank area. Secondary objectives included assessing the extent of subject discomfort during treatment, overall subject satisfaction with the results of the procedure, and a determination of subcutaneous fat reduction in the treated area.
## 5.7.4.2 Efficacy Endpoints
Primary efficacy endpoint: blinded evaluation of pre- and post-treatment photos Secondary efficacy endpoints: mean fat reduction by ultrasound and subject satisfaction.
## 5.7.4.3 Materials and Methods
A 110-cm² area on both flanks of enrolled subjects was treated for 20 minutes with an FDAcleared robotic non-contact 1064-nm laser system (EON®; Dominion Aesthetic Technologies, Inc.). Patients were followed for 12 weeks, and examined routinely at 2 weeks, 12 weeks and additionally as needed, post-treatment. Pre- and post-treatment photos were taken by a professional photographer using a standardized DSLR and lighting set-up. The ability of three independent readers to correctly identify blinded pre-treatment vs. post-treatment photos was assessed. The study was declared to be a success if at least two of the three independent readers correctly identified at least 9 of the 11 photos as pre-treatment. Ad hoc surveys were administered to assess patient satisfaction. A 2-week post-treatment ultrasound scan was used to check for changes in the treated area. The study was powered to assess patient-level and flank-level subcutaneous adipose tissue thickness using ultrasound measurements taken at a center of each treatment zone prior to treatment and at 12 weeks post-treatment for efficacy determination, with mean thicknesses calculated per subject and per flank.
## 5.7.4.4 Results
The treatment had a low incidence of adverse effects, with only one subject developing a palpable thickening in the subcutaneous tissue following treatment. This was noted at the two-week time period and had resolved by the 12-week post-treatment exam. No other predefined adverse effects were noted. On a scale of 0 to 10, the mean pain score during the procedure was 1.95, decreasing to 0.9 at 30 minutes post-procedure. Subject satisfaction was "Excellent" for all subjects (100%). For blinded evaluation of pre- and post-treatment photos, 27 (81.8%) of 33 image sets were correctly scored overall, with two of the three readers correctly identifying pre- and post-treatment photos in at least 9 of the 11 subjects, thus achieving study success. At Week 12 after one treatment, the mean reduction in
{12}------------------------------------------------
subcutaneous adipose thickness on the treated flanks was 6.1 mm per flank and 12.1 mm per patient (-15%; p<0.01, both measures).
Similar to the prior abdominal study with the same robotic laser device, this study confirms the safety of this 1064-nm non-contact laser device for treating subcutaneous fat on the flanks. The study provided objective evidence of EON safety and efficacy in treating the flank area.
{13}------------------------------------------------
## 5-8 Conclusions
D
The clinical and non-clinical testing conducted on EON support the safety of the device and the hardware and software verification and validation demonstrate that EON should perform as intended in the specified use conditions. Dominion believes that EON is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the predicate device. The clinical performance of EON demonstrates that EON has a safety and effectiveness profile that is similar to its predicate device. It has been concluded that the EON device is safe and effective for its intended use.
Two short videos show you everything — or skip straight to the written tutorial if you'd rather read. You can reopen this any time from the Tutorial button in the top bar.
Part 1 — Search, results, and everyday workflows 16 min
Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
