Intended Use
The ADVATx at 589nm is indicated for use for dermatologic treatment of benign cutaneous vascular lesions including but not limited to: treatment of wrinkles, periocular wrinkles, periorbital wrinkles, facial and leg telangiectasia, rosacea, cherry angiomas, port wine stains, hemangiomas and venous lakes, angioma, spider angioma, Poikiloderma of Civatte, inflammatory acne vulgaris, verrucae/warts, scars, striea, and psoriasis. The ADVATx at 1319nm is indicated for treatment of fine lines and wrinkles. Treatment of atrophic acne scars. Treatment of mild and moderate inflammatory acne vulgaris.
Device Story
ADVATx is a Nd:YAG laser system delivering 589nm Q-switched pulsed light and 1319nm continuous wave light for dermatological applications. The device is a stand-alone system operated by clinicians in a clinical setting. Laser energy is delivered to the patient's skin via a fiber-connected handpiece or an optional scanner. The scanner operates by applying single energy spots at high speed to cover a defined area. Clinicians use the device to treat vascular lesions, wrinkles, and acne; the laser energy targets specific cutaneous structures to achieve therapeutic effects. The system provides stable output spectrum and power, ensuring consistent treatment delivery. Benefits include non-invasive management of various dermatological conditions.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Compliance with IEC 60601-1 (electrical safety), IEC 60601-1-2 (EMC), IEC 60601-2-22 (laser safety), and IEC 60825-1 (laser safety) was verified. System and software validation confirmed stable laser output spectrum and power over single and long-term treatment sessions.
Technological Characteristics
Nd:YAG laser system; 589nm Q-switched pulsed light and 1319nm continuous wave light. Fiber-delivered energy via handpiece or optional scanner (5x5mm to 10x10mm scan area). Stand-alone system. Complies with IEC 60601-1, 60601-1-2, 60601-2-22, and 60825-1.
Indications for Use
Indicated for dermatologic treatment of benign vascular lesions, wrinkles (periocular/periorbital), telangiectasia, rosacea, angiomas, port wine stains, hemangiomas, venous lakes, Poikiloderma of Civatte, inflammatory acne vulgaris, warts, scars, striae, and psoriasis in patients requiring laser therapy.
Regulatory Classification
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.

The ADVATx at 1319nm is indicated for treatment of fine lines and wrinkles. Treatment of atrophic acne scars. Treatment of mild and moderate inflammatory acne vulgaris.
# Technological Characteristics
The ADVATx Laser System is a Nd:YAG laser delivering 589nm @-switched pulsed light and 1319nm continuous wave light. This laser system was developed specifically for dermatological treatments. The laser light is delivered to the patient either through a scanner or a hand piece.
# Performance Data
Electrical safety testing was performed which showed compliance with IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2 and IEC 60601-2-22. Laser safety was evaluated and the ADVATx Laser System was found to comply with IEC 60825-1. System and software validation and verification demonstrate that the ADVATx performs as intended and meets its' specifications. Testing was performed which verified that the laser output spectrum and power are stable both over a single treatment session and long term.
# Substantial Equivalence
The ADVATx 589nm wavelength is substantially equivalent to the Norseld Dual Yellow D10B Laser System (K032397) and the Candela Vbeam Laser System (K043251). The indications for use statement for the ADVATx for the 589nm wavelength is exactly the same as a subset of the indications for use statement for the Norseld Dual Yellow D10B Laser (K032397) and is very similar to the indications for use statement for the Candela Vbeam 595nm wavelength (K043251).
The ADVATx 589 nm wavelength and the predicate devices have the same technological characteristics. The ADVATx and the predicate devices are all stand-alone laser systems in the yellow spectrum that are used primarily for dermatological treatments. Treatment parameters including fluence, spot size, and pulse duration are all within the specifications of the previously cleared predicate devices. All of the devices (ADVATx, Norseld and Candela Vbeam) utilize a fiber connected to a hand piece to deliver the laser energy. Additionally, the ADVATx and the Norseld Dual Yellow D10B can be delivered with an optional scanner. The scanner treatment size for the ADVATx is 5 x 5 mm to 10 x 10 mm which is the same minimum and maximum scan area for the Norseld Dual Yellow D10B.
The ADVATx 1319nm wavelength is substantially equivalent to the Sciton Joule Laser System (K101916) and the Cynosure Tristar Laser System

{2}------------------------------------------------
(K033176). The indications for use statement for the ADVATx for the 1319nm wavelength is exactly the same as the indications for use statement for the Sciton Joule Multi-Platform System (K101916). The ADVATx 1319nm wavelength has the same intended use as the identified predicate devices and may be found to be substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
The ADVATx 1319nm and the predicate devices are all Nd:YAG lasers with a wavelength of 1319nm wavelength (1320nm for the Cynosure predicate). All of the devices (from AdvaLight, Sciton and Cynosure) utilize a fiber connected to a hand piece to deliver the laser energy. Additionally, the ADVATx and the Sciton Joule Multi-Platform System are delivered using an optional scanner. The scanner treatment works on identical principles (single energy spots applied on the skin next to each other at very high speed filling out the complete area).
