# 5. Description of the Device [21 CFR 807.92(a)(4)]

The PICO SHINING consists of a power supply, laser resonator, touch LCD monitor, articulated arm, handpieces, foot switch, and laser protective eyewear. The system includes several safety features, including use of key switch, an interlock, emergency stop button, and need to press a footswitch in order to activate the laser. The main body transmits the laser energy through the articulating arm to the handpiece which is positioned above or in contact with the treatment area. Four different handpieces can be attached to the articulated arm, the Zoom handpiece, Collimated handpiece, and Array MLA 110 and Peak MLA 60 handpiece. Each handpiece is interchangeable and integrates and aiming beam that shows the treatment area.

The Nd:YAG laser surgical system employs a solid-state laser with a medium of Nd:YAG at 1064 nm and KTP at 532 nm. The energy from the 1064 nm wavelengths emitted by the laser is directed at the cells or tissues of the skin, raising the temperature of the targeted tissue according to the Selective Photothermolysis Theory. This selective heating of the tissue results in the cutting, destruction, or removal of the tissue through the heat energy produced by the laser. The system employs a patented resonator design with optics aligned under controlled thermal lensing conditions. At high repetition rates (8–10 Hz), thermal lensing of the Nd:YAG rod can degrade beam quality in conventional systems. In the system, the lamp frequency is fixed at 8–10 Hz, optical alignment is optimized under these conditions, and laser emission is generated only at divisor frequencies (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10 Hz). As a result, stable beam quality and energy output are maintained even during prolonged use.

# 7. Substantial Equivalence [21 CFR 807.92(a)(6)]

All devices have the same intended use, laser use in dermatological surgical and aesthetic applications. The subject device has equivalent indications to the predicate in that it shares indications with the predicate device.

The technological characteristics of the subject device are equivalent to the predicate device. Both devices share the same laser medium (Nd:YAG), primary wavelengths (1064 and 532 nm), and pulse widths in the picosecond timescale. The subject device maintains the same treatment modes and laser resonator technology as the predicate device.

The primary difference lies in the handpiece configuration. The MLA handpiece, previously cleared in the predicate device, has been renamed to Array MLA 110 in the subject device with no changes to its functional specifications. Additionally, the Peak MLA 60 handpiece has been introduced. The distinguishing feature of the Peak MLA 60 is the implementation of specific fluence limits for each individual spot, which are strictly controlled via software to prevent the repetition rate (Hz) from exceeding pre-defined safety thresholds. Performance bench testing has confirmed that these software-controlled fluence limits, along with the resulting wavelength, pulse energy and spot size, remain strictly within the maximum cleared ranges of the predicate's MLA technology.

All other laser parameters are identical to or a subset of the predicate device. Therefore, the renaming of the handpiece and the addition of the Peak MLA 60 with defined fluence limits do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness.
