## Intended Use

The LipoLite (eLipo) is intended for dermatological procedures requiring incision, excision, vaporization, ablation and coagulation of soft tissue. The LipoLite (eLipo) is further indicated for laser-assisted lipolysis.

## Device Story

LipoLite (eLipo) is a microprocessor-controlled 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser system. Device components include high voltage power supply, laser assembly, control panel, and cooling unit. System delivers pulsed laser energy to pre-determined anatomical areas via optical fiber. Used by clinicians in dermatological and plastic surgery settings for soft tissue procedures and laser-assisted lipolysis. Output allows for precise tissue interaction (incision, excision, vaporization, ablation, coagulation). Benefits include controlled thermal effect on soft tissue.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence based on technological characteristics and performance specifications compared to the predicate device.

## Technological Characteristics

1064 nm Nd:YAG laser system; microprocessor-controlled; pulsed energy delivery via optical fiber; includes high voltage power supply, laser assembly, control panel, and cooling unit.

## Regulatory Identification

(1) A carbon dioxide laser for use in general surgery and in dermatology is a laser device intended to cut, destroy, or remove tissue by light energy emitted by carbon dioxide.(2) An argon laser for use in dermatology is a laser device intended to destroy or coagulate tissue by light energy emitted by argon.

## Predicate Devices

- Cynosure SmartLipo Laser ([K062321](/device/K062321.md))

Dear Yoni Iger:

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 (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. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such 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.
