Indications for Use
The LUTRONIC GENIUS is intended for use in dermatologic and general surgical procedures for electrocoagulation/contraction and hemostasis.
Device Story
Lutronic Genius is an electrosurgical unit delivering bipolar radiofrequency (RF) energy to tissue via disposable handpiece tips containing microneedle arrays (e.g., 7x7 array). The device consists of a main body, handpiece, footswitch, and LCD touch screen. During operation, the clinician holds the handpiece at right angles to the target tissue; microneedles penetrate the epidermis, delivering RF energy to generate an electro-thermal reaction. This reaction causes tissue coagulation and contraction. Used in clinical settings by healthcare professionals for dermatologic and general surgical procedures. The device provides controlled thermal effects, aiding in hemostasis and tissue management. Benefits include precise energy delivery for coagulation and contraction, with adjustable depth and energy settings to suit clinical requirements.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Thermal effect study performed on ex vivo tissues (Yucatan pig skin, bovine liver, bovine heart muscle) comparing Lutronic Genius (M49D/P14D tips) to Morpheus8 (Tip 40/Tip 12). Results showed consistent thermal lesion profiles and tissue contraction correlated with energy levels, demonstrating performance equivalence to the predicate.

Dear Nicole Getman:
We have reviewed your section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device"

| 807.92(a)(4) - Device description | |
| | The LUTRONIC GENIUS includes the system main body, a handpiece equipped with disposable handpiece tips, footswitch, and an LCD touch screen control panel. The RF energy is delivered using disposable handpiece tips consisting of a 7x7 bipolar microneedle array. The bipolar microneedle array delivers radiofrequency energy to the target tissue: The microneedles come in light contact with the epidermis of the patient and minimally penetrate the epidermis during the treatment. The handpiece being held at right angles to the target tissue. As the RF energy passes into the skin via the needles, it generates an electro-thermal reaction capable of coagulating the tissue. |

# **Performance**
**Study Title:** Thermal Tests for the Evaluation of GENIUS RF Microneedling Device Vs Morpheus8 As predicate on Three Different Types of Ex Vivo Tissues
The purpose of the study is to assess the thermal effect of the Genius RF microneedling Device, equipped with M49D and P14D tips, using various parameters applied to ex vivo three types of tissues, Yucatan pig skin, Bovine liver, and muscle (derived from bovine heart). The study aims to evaluate the thermal effects of different modes and settings in accordance with the criteria outlined in the FDA Guidance for Industry: Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions for Electrosurgical Devices for General Surgery.
Morpheus8 microneedling device, equipped with Tip 40 (body) and Tip 12 (prime) is used as a predicate device in the proposed study. The study is being conducted for regulatory considerations by the sponsor to provide performance data for the Genius RF, demonstrating equivalence in its safety and treatment effect features.
The treatment of an ex vivo tissue model, bovine skin, liver, and muscle, using the Genius RF device, equipped with M49D and P14D tips compared to the predicate Morpheus8 RF device equipped with Tip 40 (body) and Tip 12 (prime) was performed. Treatment at various penetration depths demonstrated the expected correlation with energy levels and consistent thermal lesion profiles across the range of energy level settings, within the accuracy expected in histology analyses. Morpheus8 served as the predicate for the Genius device. The Genius, equipped with different tip configurations, demonstrated the formation of CMZs and tissue contraction comparable to those formed by Morpheus8. Considering the above, the Test and Predicate Devices demonstrated the expected correlation with energy levels and consistent thermal lesion profiles across the range of energy level settings, within the accuracy expected in histology analyses. It may be concluded that the Test Device is equally safe when compared to the predicate device.
# **807.92(b)(2) CLINICAL TESTS SUBMITTED**
No clinical tests were performed for this submission.
# **807.92(b)(3) Conclusion**
Based on the comparison of the technological characteristics, the specifications for the LUTRONIC GENIUS are the same or a subset of the predicate/secondary predicate device specifications. The indication is the same as the secondary predicate device, The InMode System with the Morpheus8 Applicators.
