Performance Data The Company's Performance Data for the LASEMD Laser System is as follows: # Bench Testing The LASEMD Laser System complies with all applicable standards, including ISO 13485:2003, ISO 60601-1 for electrical safety and IEC 60601-1-2 for electromagnetic compatibility. # Animal Testing Histology confirms that the treatment skin effect of the LASEMD Laser System is the same as the predicate Fraxel DUAL 1927 nm Laser System when used at the same energy settings. # Clinical Testing No performance data has been provided since the LASEMD Laser System is equivalent to the previously cleared predicate device with no new issues regarding safety and effectiveness. #### 8. Conclusion The LASEMD Laser System and the legally marketed Fraxel DUAL Laser System cleared under 510(k) number K130193, have the same intended use and Indications for Use statement. While the technological characteristics differ between the two systems, the differences have been established to be minor. Performance testing data established that the LASEMD Laser System is as safe and effective as the legally marked predicate {7}------------------------------------------------ device and that the LASEMD Laser System does not raise any different questions of safety and effectiveness than the predicate. On this basis and in accordance with 21 CFR \$ 807.100(b), the LASEMD Laser System is substantially equivalent to the Fraxel DUAL Laser System and can be legally marketed in the U.S. --- **Source:** [https://fda.innolitics.com/submissions/SU/subpart-e%E2%80%94surgical-devices/GEX/K171009](https://fda.innolitics.com/submissions/SU/subpart-e%E2%80%94surgical-devices/GEX/K171009) **Published by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com)** — a medical-device software consultancy.
