Indications for Use

The Elite iQ Laser System is indicated for stable long-term or permanent hair reduction. Permanent hair reduction is defined as long-term stable reduction in the number of hairs regrowing when measured at 6, 9 or 12 months after the completion of a treatment regime. It is used for skin types (Fitzpatrick I-VI) including tanned skin. It is also indicated for the treatment of vascular lesions, benign pigmented lesions, and wrinkles.

The Elite iQ Laser System is intended for the coagulation and hemostasis of benign vascular lesions such as, but not limited to, port wine stains, hemangiomas, warts, telangiectasia, rosacea, venous lakes, leg veins, spider veins and poikiloderma of Civatte; and treatment of benign cutaneous lesions such as warts, scars, striae and psoriasis. The laser is also intended for the treatment of benign pigmented lesions such as, but not limited to, lentigines (age spots), solar lentigines (sunspots), cafe au lait macules, seborrheic keratoses, nevi, chloasma, verrucae, skin tags, keratosis and plaques.

The laser is also indicated for the treatment of wrinkles such as, but not limited to, periocular and perioral wrinkles.

Additionally, the laser is indicated for the treatment of pseudo folliculitis barbae (PFB) and for stable long-term or permanent hair reduction. Permanent hair reduction is defined as long-term stable reduction in the number of hairs regrowing when measured at 6, 9 and 12 months after the completion of a treatment regime.

Device Description

The Elite iQ™ workstation is a dual wavelength system that delivers laser energy in both the Nd:YAG (1064-nm) and Alexandrite (755-nm) wavelengths. Through various spot sizes, fluences and repetition rates, the system offers hair removal treatment and aesthetic treatments across all skin types. The Elite iQ delivers the laser energy through a lens-coupled optical fiber with a wide range of interchangeable, quick-release laser handpieces with electronic spot recognition. The Elite iQ also includes the Skintel® Melanin Reader for objective measurement of the melanin content of skin. The locking casters allow this stand-alone laser system to be secured in place, as well as to be conveniently moved or transported. When not in use, handpiece components and other system components can be stowed in the storage area located in the side drawer. All system connections, such as the foot switch and remote interlock connections, are located on the rear of the laser. This includes all applicable device labels. User-selectable controls and functions are located on the front of the laser. Elite iQ software features include a Windows® operating system, LCD touch screen and a state-of-the-art graphic user interface.
