Technological Comparison: The subject device Frax 1940 for Nordlys and Frax Pro and its predicate device Ellipse Frax 1940 for Ellipse Nordlys and Ellipse Ydun (K192951) are identical in the design, technology and biological characteristics of the applicator and consoles. The Frax 1940 and 1927nm part of the co-predicate device Fraxel Dual 1550/1927 Laser System are similar in their principal of operation/mechanism of action. The interaction between laser light and the different skin tissue component is dictated by the optical absorbance of the tissue at the specified wavelength, the optical power and pulse duration. The Frax 1940 and 1927nm part of the co-predicate device Fraxel Dual 1550/1927 Laser System are both handheld scanning applicators with comparable design, using active air cooling, with comparable wavelength and comparable technological specifications including maximal pulse energy, maximal pulse duration and maximal microspot size and density. {7}------------------------------------------------ ## 9. PERFORMANCE DATA: # Performance Standards: The Frax 1940 with Nordlys and Frax Pro Laser systems has been tested according to and comply with: - IEC 60601-1, 3rd Edition 2005+A1:2012: Medical electrical equipment-- Part 1: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance. - IEC 60601-1-2 Edition 4.0 2014-02 Medical electrical equipment Part 1-2: General Requirements for Basic Safety and Essential Performance - Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic Disturbances – Requirements and tests. - EN 60825-1, Edition 3.0 2014 Safety of laser products Equipment classification and requirements. - IEC 60601-2-22 Edition 3.0, 2007 Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of surgical, cosmetic, therapeutic, and diagnostic laser equipment. ## Clinical Testing Two clinical studies were conducted on the Frax 1940 to support the new indications of benign pigmented lesions. The results of the clinical studies demonstrated favorable safety and effectiveness profile for the Frax 1940 nm laser system for the indicated use for benign pigmented lesions removal after 1-3 treatment sessions. ## 10. Substantial Equivalence Comparison: When comparing Frax 1940 to the predicate device Ellipse Frax 1940 (K192951) and co-predicate device Fraxel Dual 1927 Laser System (K130193), the additional indications for use do not raise new issues of safety and effectiveness. The Frax 1940 with Nordlys and Frax Pro is substantially equivalent, in terms of technological characteristics, performance, intended use/ indications for use, to the predicate device Ellipse Frax 1940 for Ellipse Nordlys and Ellipse Ydun (K192951) and the co-predicate device Fraxel Dual 1550/1927 Laser System (K130193).
