In Canada, the sale and distribution of medical devices are strictly regulated by Health Canada to ensure patient safety and product efficacy.
One of the key requirements for manufacturers is obtaining a Medical Device Licence (MDL), particularly for Class II, III, and IV medical devices.
What is an MDL (Medical Device Licence)?
An MDL (Medical Device Licence) is an official authorization issued by Health Canada, permitting a company to legally sell its medical device in the Canadian market.
The requirement for an MDL depends on the risk classification of the device:
Class I (Low Risk) – Examples include bandages, thermometers, and non-invasive devices. These do not require an MDL but must still comply with general safety regulations.
Class II (Medium Risk) – Includes devices like syringes, contact lenses, and some dermatological tools. These require an MDL and must meet additional safety and performance standards.
Class III (High Risk) – Covers devices such as surgical lasers, implantable devices, and certain advanced medical equipment. These undergo rigorous review before approval.
Class IV (Highest Risk) – Includes life-sustaining devices like pacemakers, heart valves, and other critical implants. These face the strictest regulatory scrutiny.
Since microneedling devices are classified as medical instruments that penetrate the skin, they typically fall under Class II or higher, meaning they must obtain an MDL before being sold in Canada.
