Indications for Use

The SCARLET PRO is intended for use in dermatologic and general surgical procedures for electrocoagulation and hemostasis.

Device Story

Radiofrequency (RF) system for dermatologic/general surgical electrocoagulation and hemostasis. System comprises main unit, handpiece with bi-polar electrode, and foot switch. RF signal generated in main unit, delivered to handpiece, and transmitted to target tissue via penetrating needle electrodes in consumable tips (25-pin or 49-pin). Handpiece held at right angles to tissue; bi-polar electrode in light contact with epidermis. RF energy creates electro-thermal reaction in skin tissue, inducing coagulation. Operated by clinicians in clinical settings. Output allows for precise depth control (0.5–3.5 mm) to achieve hemostasis. Benefits include controlled thermal tissue effect for surgical procedures.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Evidence includes electrical safety, electromagnetic compatibility, and biocompatibility testing per ISO 10993 and IEC 60601 standards.

Technological Characteristics

RF system; bipolar output. Electrodes: gold-plated surgical stainless steel, single-use, 25-pin/49-pin configurations. Depth adjustment: 0.5–3.5 mm (0.1 mm increments). Sterilization: EO gas.

You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" U.S. Food & Drug Administration 10903 New Hampshire Avenue Silver Spring, MD 20993 www.fda.gov {1} K253859 - Jonghyeon Kim Page 2 (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download). Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality Management System Regulation (QMSR) (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, ISO 13485 clause 7.3 (Design controls), ISO 13485 clause 8.3 (Nonconforming product), ISO 13485 clause 8.5.2 (Corrective action), and ISO 13485 clause 8.5.3 (Preventative action). Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review, the QMSR requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (ISO 13485 clause 7.3 and ISO 13485 clause 7.5) and document changes and approvals in the Medical Device File (ISO 13485 clause 4.2.3). Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reporting-combination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the Quality Management System Regulation (QMSR) (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050. All medical devices, including Class I and unclassified devices and combination product device constituent parts are required to be in compliance with the final Unique Device Identification System rule ("UDI Rule"). The UDI Rule requires, among other things, that a device bear a unique device identifier (UDI) on its label and package (21 CFR 801.20(a)) unless an exception or alternative applies (21 CFR 801.20(b)) and that the dates on the device label be formatted in accordance with 21 CFR 801.18. The UDI Rule (21 CFR 830.300(a) and 830.320(b)) also requires that certain information be submitted to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID) (21 CFR Part 830 Subpart E). For additional information on these requirements, please see the UDI System webpage at https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/device-advice-comprehensive-regulatory-assistance/unique-device-identification-system-udi-system.

Description of the Device [21 CFR 807.92(a)(4)] The SCARLET PRO includes a system main device, a handpiece equitable with a bi-polar electrode, and a foot switch. The RF signal is generated from the main device which is then delivered to the handpiece and then to bi-polar electrode. The RF signal is delivered to the target tissue using penetrating needle electrodes in the consumable tip and S49BS. The bi-polar electrode is placed in light contact with the epidermis while the handpiece is being held at right angles to the target tissue. As the RF signal passes throught the skin, it generates an eletro thermal reaction which is capable of coagulating the tissue. Using the consumable tip and S49BS, SCARLET PRO creates heate within the target skin tissue via needle electrodes from the bi-polar electrode. 510(k) Summary 3 / 9 SCARLET PRO {7} K253859 ## 6. Indications for Use [21 CFR 807.92(a)(5)] The SCARLET PRO is intended for use in dermatologic procedures for electrocoagulation and hemostasis. 510(k) Summary 4 / 9 SCARLET PRO {8} K253859 ## 7. Technological Characteristics (Equivalence to Predicate Device) [21 CFR 807.92(a)(6)] There are no significant differences in the technological characteristics of these devices compared to the predicate device which adversely affect safety or effectiveness. Provided below is a table summarizing and comparing the technological characteristics of the SCARLET PRO and the predicate device: [Table 3.

All three devices have the same indications for use, RF output type, electrode material, sterilization method, and intended user population. Key technological characteristics—including bipolar output, single-use electrodes, and gold-plated stainless-steel construction—are equivalent across the subject and predicate devices. The only differences are as follows: - There are minor differences in output control (foot switch only vs. foot/finger switch), available spot size options, and depth adjustment increments (0.1 mm for SCARLET PRO vs. 0.25 mm for SCARLET SRF). These changes are improvements for user convenience and do not impact the core therapeutic function or overall device safety. There are no significant differences between the SCARLET PRO and the predicate devices that would adversely affect safety or effectiveness, including for the added 49pin electrode, as confirmed by technological and performance comparison. 510(k) Summary 6 / 9 SCARLET PRO {10} K253859 In summary, there are no significant differences between the subject and predicate devices that would adversely affect the use of the product. SCARLET PRO is substantially equivalent to both predicate devices in indications for use and technological characteristics. 510(k) Summary 7 / 9 SCARLET PRO {11} K253859 ## 8. Non-Clinical Test Summary The 'SCARLET PRO' complies with voluntary standards for electrical safety, electromagnetic compatibility.
