Before ordering Scarlet SRF tips, a practice can read three public sources, the GUDID registry, the 510(k) clearance K180872 and US seller pages, and on September 24, 2026 the AMP Shop page put one tip at $75.00 to $99.40 depending on how many boxes were bought. The GUDID entry is a registry record and K180872 is an FDA decision, both about the device, while a seller page is an offer on the day it was read. Where these sources stop, the next step is a short list of questions you send the supplier before paying for a box.
What GUDID records for the Scarlet SRF device
The GUDID registry lists SCARLET SRF under VIOL Co.,Ltd. with device identifier 08809502330088 and ties the record to 510(k) number K180872 (read September 24, 2026), which gives you two numbers to put to a supplier before ordering tips. The GUDID record for SCARLET SRF gives Version or Model "SCARLET SRF," Device Count 1 and a Catalog Number field with no value, and its status reads "In Commercial Distribution." See also the catalog number cross-reference.
In this record the Package DI section reads "No Package DIs found." The record carries two dates in two separate fields, "Creation Date" November 19, 2018 and "DI Record Publish Date" April 04, 2023. Ask the supplier which DI and which 510(k) number are printed on the label of the tip box you will receive.
What the K180872 clearance says about the tip
The FDA cleared SCARLET SRF under 510(k) K180872 on October 11, 2018 as a system of a main device, a hand-piece equipped with a tip and a footswitch, with the RF signal reaching tissue through needle electrodes in the tip. The K180872 decision document, read twice on September 24, 2026, traces the RF signal from the main unit to the hand-piece and then to the "consumable tip." Because the document names that part "consumable tip," that term is the one to use when you ask a supplier for paperwork.
The comparison table in the same document uses INFINI Radiofrequency System (K121481) from Lutronic Corporation as a predicate. The summary also describes SCARLET SRF as "basically an identical device with the 510(k)-cleared device CELFIRM™ (K172023)." That sentence compares two devices, so treat it as a statement about the system and not about which tips go in the hand-piece. For the tip itself, ask the supplier for VIOL's instructions for use with a document number and revision, and for what those instructions state about single use and the number of needles per tip.
Two VIOL tip records in GUDID carry the Celfirm clearance number
GUDID lists a VIOL Co.,Ltd. record branded CONSUMABLE TIP, device identifier 28809502330013, with a Device Count of 10, For Single-Use "Yes" and Device Packaged as Sterile "Yes," filed under K172023, which the K180872 decision names as the clearance number of CELFIRM (the record and the K180872 decision each read twice on September 24, 2026). The record for 28809502330013 gives Version "Consumable Tip" and Device Description "No description." In two reads on the same day, that record did not contain the word "SCARLET," "Scarlet" or "SRF."
A second record under the same brand name, device identifier 38809502330010, gives Device Count 600, For Single-Use "Yes," Device Packaged as Sterile "Yes" and the same number, K172023, with a Publish Date of April 04, 2023 (read September 24, 2026). For both records the Package DI section reads "No Package DIs found," and the counts of 10 and 600 belong to two separate Primary DI records. Ask the supplier which of the two identifiers, if either, appears on the box you receive.
The two VIOL tip records carry the Celfirm clearance number, and the Scarlet SRF clearance calls the device basically identical to Celfirm. A buyer who joins those facts into a statement about fit is doing the manufacturer's work without the manufacturer's document. See also does a newer cartridge fit an older device. Ask whether the name SCARLET SRF appears on the label of your box.
What one Scarlet SRF tip cost at two US sellers
The AMP Shop page listed Scarlet SRF tips at $994 for one box of ten on September 24, 2026, which is $99.40 a tip, and at $3,750 for five boxes of ten, which is $75.00 a tip. The AMP Shop listing prices by quantity, so the per-tip figure drops by $24.40 between one box and five. The DHX Laser listing for a ten-pack showed $849.95 under the label "Regular price" on the same day, $144.05 a box below the AMP single-box tier.
| seller | how the page identifies the seller | offer as listed | listed price (read September 24, 2026) | per tip |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AMP Shop | footer "About AMP Shop 9109 Macon Rd, Cordova, TN 38016" | "Scarlet SRF Tips," listed as "10 Tips Per Box" | $994 (1 box), $2,750 (3 boxes), $3,750 (5 boxes) | $99.40, $91.67, $75.00 |
| DHX Laser | "Laser and microneedling consumables for clinics and med spas" | "Scarlet SRF Bi-Polar Electrode Cartridge 10 Pack Exp 2027" | $849.95, labeled "Regular price" | about $85.00 ($849.95 for ten) |
The amounts are the offers of these two sellers on the day of reading, not a price for the Scarlet brand. The AMP Shop page shows "Request Access" and "Sign in" buttons and addresses its access text to professionals, so an order there may start with an account request. Before comparing the two, ask each seller for the SKU, the needle count, the single-use statement and the expiry date in writing. Compare the price per tip at the quantity you actually order. A cost per treatment can follow only once the supplier shows the manufacturer's record of how many treatments one tip serves. See also who sells Vivace tips, and what one cartridge costs.
Scarlet PRO sits under the same clearance number as Scarlet SRF
GUDID lists SCARLET PRO as a separate VIOL Co.,Ltd. device, identifier 08809502330422 and published July 11, 2025, under the same 510(k) number as SCARLET SRF, K180872, so that number alone does not tell the two devices apart. The SCARLET PRO record, read September 24, 2026, gives Device Count 1 and the status "In Commercial Distribution."
VIOL's provider product page, read September 24, 2026, lists SCARLET S among its products. Ask which device name the tip box label is issued for, and whether the supplier holds a VIOL document that states it.
Questions to put to your supplier before you order a box
Ask the supplier for the device identifier and the 510(k) number printed on the tip box, because GUDID records the Scarlet SRF device under K180872 and the VIOL CONSUMABLE TIP records under K172023.
- The DI and the 510(k) number on the label of the tip box.
- The device name printed on that label (SCARLET SRF, SCARLET PRO or SCARLET S).
- VIOL's instructions for use, with document number and revision, and what they state about single use and needles per tip.
- The expiry date on the box that will ship.
- The price per tip at your quantity, and whether ordering requires an account.
Once those answers are in writing, request a quote with your device name and the number of boxes you need, and set the per-tip figure against the table above.
FAQ
Is Scarlet SRF FDA cleared?
The FDA's 510(k) database records K180872 for SCARLET SRF from VIOL Co., Ltd. as "Substantially Equivalent (SESE)," a traditional submission received April 3, 2018 and decided October 11, 2018 under regulation 878.4400. The 510(k) database entry, read September 24, 2026, assigns it to the General & Plastic Surgery panel and records "Reviewed by Third Party" as No. The decision letter places the device in class II under 21 CFR 878.4400, "Electrosurgical Cutting and Coagulation Device." The word for this status is cleared, not approved.
How many needles does a Scarlet SRF tip have?
Ask the supplier for the needle count per tip in writing, together with the number and revision of the VIOL document it comes from, because a count quoted without a document cannot be checked against the manufacturer. The K180872 summary calls them "penetrating needle electrodes," which describes how the tip delivers energy. If a seller offers more than one tip type for the device, ask for the count of each one separately, since a single figure on a listing may cover only one.
Which company does the registry name for Scarlet SRF?
GUDID lists the SCARLET SRF device under VIOL Co.,Ltd., and the FDA's 510(k) database entry for K180872 names VIOL Co., Ltd. of Seongnam-si, Korea as applicant, so the company name on a tip box label is worth reading against those two records. The 510(k) entry lists Bt Solutions, Inc. as correspondent, a separate role from applicant. A US seller's name on the box or invoice is the channel, and the manufacturer named on the label is what you check.
