Is Megelin FDA Approved?

When it comes to purchasing personal care and wellness devices, safety and regulatory approval are top concerns for many consumers. One of the most frequently asked questions about Megelin products is whether they are FDA approved. Let's clear up any confusion.

1. Megelin IPL Hair Removal Device - FDA Approved

Yes, the Megelin IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Hair Removal Device is FDA approved. This approval is backed by a 510(k) number, which is essential for devices classified under "Light Based Over-The-Counter Hair Removal." Here are the specifics:

  • Device Classification Name: Light Based Over-The-Counter Hair Removal
  • 510(k) Number: K231800
  • Device Name: IPL Hair Removal Device, Model(s): JP1, JR3, JR8, JR9

The 510(k) number is crucial for ensuring that the IPL Hair Removal Device meets the safety and effectiveness standards required by the FDA for over-the-counter use. It demonstrates that the device has undergone thorough evaluation and is safe for consumer use in the United States.
