## Intended Use
The Dermatological Diode Laser (Model: Hakon and Hakon Smart) is intended for the removal, permanent reduction of hair on all skin types (Fitzpatrick skin types I-VI), including tanned skin. Permanent hair reduction is defined as the stable, long-term reduction in the number of hairs growing back when measured at 6, 9, and 12 months after completion of a treatment regimen.
## Device Story
Hakon and Hakon Smart are micro-controlled diode laser systems (808nm) for hair removal. Device targets melanin in hair follicles via selective photothermolysis to destroy hair bulbs during the anagen phase. System comprises a main unit, handpiece, and control pedal. Operated by clinicians in a professional setting. Laser energy (1-70 J/cm²) is delivered to the skin; melanin absorbs light, converting it to thermal energy to damage germinal cells. Output is controlled by the user to achieve permanent hair reduction. Benefits include safe, effective hair removal across all skin types.
## Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Device performance and safety were validated through compliance with international standards: IEC 60601-1 (electrical safety), IEC 60601-1-2 (EMC), IEC 60601-2-22 (laser safety), IEC 60825-1 (laser classification), and ISO 10993-1 (biocompatibility).
## Technological Characteristics

#### F) Device Description
The Hakon and Hakon Smart device is a micro-controlled equipment used in diode laser therapies at wavelengths of 808nm intended to remove unwanted hair.
### G) Device Operations Principles
The technique is based on the principle of selective thermal destruction, specifically targeting the germinal cells within the hair follicle. By utilizing laser light, the melanin present in the hair absorbs the energy, leading to the destruction of the hair bulbs in the anagen phase represents the active growth stage of the hair follicle, characterized by highly pigmented matrix cells and a connection to the dermal papilla. It is during this phase that the treatment achieves its highest success rates.
Melanin, being the primary chromophore in hair follicles, enables the utilization of light wavelengths ranging from 600 to 1100nm for safe and effective photo thermolysis. These wavelengths ensure optimal targeting of the hair follicles while maintaining efficacy and safety throughout the treatment process.
## H) Predicate Device:
The Hakon and Hakon Smart is equivalent with the following predicate device:

**SE Discussion**
The subject device differs from the predicate in several key aspects, including spot size, fluency range, and pulse duration.
**Spot Size:** The predicate device has a spot size ranging from a minimum of 9mm to a maximum of 30mm, while the subject device falls within the
dimensions of 10mm to 12mm. This ensures that the subject device maintains a safe spot size within the range specified by the predicate.
**Fluency Range:** The predicate device has a fluency range of 3 - 100J/cm², whereas the subject device has a lower fluency range of 1 - 70J/cm².
The subject device has a maximum thermal energy 30% lower than the predicate and a minimum thermal energy 76% lower.
**Pulse Duration:** The predicate device has a pulse duration limit of 15 - 400ms, while the subject device has a pulse duration of 10 - 400ms. The
subject device's pulse duration has a minimum limit that is 30% lower than that of the predicate. Since the subject device has a lower pulse
duration limit and not a higher one, it ensures safety in terms of pulse duration characteristics.
These differences highlight that the subject device is designed with specific technical specifications that prioritize safety. The spot size, fluency
range, and pulse duration of the subject device align with the predicate, thereby providing a safe hair removal solution.
Furthermore, it is important to note that these differences in spot size, fluency range, and pulse duration do not compromise the efficiency or
effectiveness of the subject device. Despite the adjustments made for enhanced safety, the subject device maintains its ability to deliver efficient
and reliable hair removal results. The modifications in these technical specifications ensure a safe treatment experience without compromising
the overall performance and efficacy of the device.
