Intended Use
Ellipse Juvia is intended for use in dermatology and plastic surgery for treatment of: - Skin Resurfacing - Wrinkles, Rhytides, and Furrows - Acne Scars
Device Story
The Ellipse Juvia is a CO2 laser system (10,600 nm) used in dermatology and plastic surgery for skin resurfacing and scar/wrinkle treatment. The system consists of a laser console, an optical fiber beam delivery system, and a scanner. The physician operates the device via a foot switch to deliver pulsed laser energy to the skin. The scanner manipulates the beam into pre-specified patterns to create light spots on the skin. By delivering controlled thermal energy, the device facilitates skin resurfacing, which can improve the appearance of wrinkles, rhytides, furrows, and acne scars. The device is intended for professional use in a clinical setting.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is based on bench testing and comparison of technical specifications (wavelength, power, spot size, scanning parameters) against predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
CO2 laser system; 10,600 nm wavelength; 0.11-20W power output; 635nm aiming beam (max 5mW); fiber-based beam delivery; scanner-based spot pattern delivery; foot switch activation; Class II device.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skin resurfacing, treatment of wrinkles, rhytides, furrows, and acne scars in dermatology and plastic surgery patients.
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.

### Conclusion:
Ellipse Juvia applications and indications are evaluated to be within the scope of the previously cleared devices. The same counts for the essential treatment parameters, the protective conditions for the skin during treatment, and the working conditions of the physician.
Based on this side-by-side comparison of the overall performance characteristics of the predicate devices under consideration Ellipse A/S concludes that no significant differences exist. The Ellipse Juvia should not raise any new issues of safety and effectiveness and is judged to be substantially equivalent to the mentioned predicate devices.
