K030527, K024093, K030342) marketed by Lumenis. - MedLite C3- Q Switched Nd: YAG laser (K011677) marketed by Hoya ConBio (formerly ● Continuum Electro-Optics) - Light-Age O-Clear laser (K033259) marketed by Light Age Inc. . - Q-YAG 5 laser (formerly Clear Light)(K003460, K023967) marketed by Palomar ● Medical Technologies Inc. #### IV. Product Description The Lumenis Quantum series of IPL/Nd: YAG systems are intense pulsed-light (IPL) and Nd: Y AG laser devices. Each Quantum system is comprised of three main components: - A system console (including software and control electronics, key-operated power control . switch, power-on indicator, emergency shut-off knob and a remote interlock connector); - . A control and display panel; - One or more delivery handpiece(s), the Treatment Heads. . The Q-switched Nd: Y AG Treatment Head for the Quantum series is a pulsed laser operating at a wavelength of 1064 nanometers. It is an upgrade that can be installed on any Quantum system. The Q-switched Nd: Y AG Laser Treatment Head is a hand held device comprised of the laser head and optics, trigger circuit, safety components and cooling circuit. The Qswitched Nd: YAG Laser Treatment Head is connected to the Quantum console via an umbilical cable and connector. 510(k) Submission: Q-switched Nd: YAG Laser Treatment Head for the Quantum Series Attachment 17 - Page 1 {1}------------------------------------------------ #### V. Indications for Use The Q-switched Nd: YAG Laser Treatment Head for the Quantum series is intended for use in the medical specialties of plastic surgery and dermatology for applications requiring selective photothermolysis and photo-acoustic effects in target chromophores. The Q-switched Nd: YAG Laser Treatment Head for the Quantum series is indicated for: - Removal of dark tattoos � - Treatment of pigmented lesions . #### Rationale for Substantial Equivalence VI. The Q-switched Nd:YAG Laser Treatment Head for the Quantum series shares the same indications for use as the predicate MedLite C3 Q-switched Nd: YAG laser system (K011677), the Q-Clear laser system (K033259) and the Q-YAG 5 / Clear Light (K003460), in that the 1064 nm wavelength is indicated for: - Removal of dark tattoos � - Treatment of pigmented lesions . The technical specifications of the Q-switched Nd: YAG Laser Treatment Head for the Quantum series are similar or identical to those of the predicate MedLite C3 Q-switched Nd: YAG laser system (K011677), the Q-Clear laser system (K033259) and the Q-YAG 5 / Clear Light (K003460). Therefore, the Q-switched Nd:YAG Laser Treatment Head for the Quantum series is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. #### Safety and Effectiveness Information VII. The Q-switched Nd:YAG Laser Treatment Head for the Quantum series shares the same indications for use, same principle of operation, same wavelength, same or similar fluence range and spot sizes as the predicate devices. A Clinical Evaluation Report demonstrated the safety and effectiveness of the Q-switched Nd: YAG laser for the claimed indications for use. The Q-switched Nd: Y AG Laser Treatment Head for the Quantum series does not raise new questions of safety and efficacy. ## VIII. Conclusion Based on the foregoing, the Q-switched Nd: Y AG Laser Treatment Head for the Quantum series was found to be substantially equivalent to the predicate MedLite C2 Q-switched Nd: YAG laser system (K011677), the Q-Clear laser system (K033259) and the Q-YAG 5 / Clear Light (K003460). {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the seal of the Department of Health & Human Services - USA.
