Indications for Use

iHelmet Hair Growth System, Model: LTD200S is indicated to promote hair growth in females with androgenetic alopecia who have Ludwig-Savin Classifications of I-II, in males with androgenetic alopecia who have Norwood-Hamilton Classifications of Ila-V and for both, Fitzpatrick Classification of Skin Phototypes I to IV.

Device Story

iHelmet Hair Growth System is a wearable helmet device containing 200 laser diodes for treating androgenetic alopecia. Device uses diode lasers (650nm) to provide full scalp coverage without manual movement. Integrated sensors detect head proximity; device pauses treatment if head is not in close proximity and resumes when detected. Audible tone signals treatment completion, followed by automatic shut-off. Intended for home use by patients. Healthcare providers use the device to promote hair growth; output is non-ionizing laser light. Benefits include non-invasive hair growth stimulation. Operational context is home-based; patient self-operates.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Safety and performance verified via IEC 60601-1 (electrical safety), IEC 60601-1-2 (EMC), IEC 60825-1 (laser safety), IEC 60601-1-11 (home use), and ISO 10993-5/10 (biocompatibility). Temperature testing confirmed scalp contact temperature does not exceed 43°C.

So these parameters' differences will not raise any safety or effectiveness issue. -- Complied with IEC 60601-1 All patient contacting materials are complied with ISO 10993- and IEC 60601-1-2 5, ISO 10993-10 {7}------------------------------------------------ ### Note 2: Although the "Weight", "Dimensions", "Environment for Operation", "Environment for Storage" of subject device are different from the predicate device, it will not affect the main function and the intended use of the device as they all also comply with IEC 60601-1 requirements. Besides, the subtle changes of the physical characteristics will not affect the critical functions or the normal use. ### 8. Conclusion The subject device iHelmet Hair Growth System has all features of the predicate devices. The few differences do not affect the safety and effectiveness of the subject device. Thus, the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. ### 9. Summary Prepared Date 2 April 2017
