Minimize Bruising and Accidental Vein Puncture in Cosmetic Injections with the #1 Most Used Vein Visualization Device, AccuVein
Needle safety techniques, such as Aspiration, teach you how to properly inject dermal fillers, neurotoxins, and other injectables to the facial vasculature. This is especially useful when working with the tear trough, nasolabial folds, and lips. But, what if you could see the details of the each vein underneath every patient you
work with…during a procedure? AccuVein is a unique vein-mapping system that uses light to display the veins and arteries on the surface of the skin, minimizing complications and injuries that arise from unintentional injection into facial blood vessels.
In this Episode of Aesthetic Record TV, Jeff Snider, the Director of Sales for AccuVein’s Non-Acute Markets, guides us on what makes his award-winning vein visualization device a must for aesthetic practices. From the beginning, medicine was a passion of Jeff’s from a young age as both his father and grandfather owned healthcare-related businesses. Jeff helped support his father’s business and, in turn, the exposure to medical 
devices for decades eventually paid off! Jeff became the top independent sales representative in the non-accuse market for AccuVein, a device which he describes was “love at first sight.” As a Director of Sales, Jeff now leads his own team of sales reps and owes the success of AccuVein’s Vein Visualization device in over 5,000 medical businesses to his team’s hard work and dedication.

AccuVein is the wold’s first handheld, non-contact vein illumination solution. The technology behind vein visualization allows injectors and other HCPs to see the up to 10mm of vasculature beneath the surface skin. The secret recipe to the device is its use of augmented reality and light. First, augmented reality is an interactive experience that you may have heard attributed to video games, like the once popular
Pokémon GO that caught the world by storm when it took smartphone gaming to the next level. Amazon
also uses a similar technology that allows shoppers to visualize online products, like electronics and furniture, in the comfort of their own living spaces by using a smartphone camera. Comparatively, the same technology of augmented reality that connects the digital world to the physical world is present in all AccuVein devices. To go into more detail, hemoglobin in the blood absorbs certain types of light. By using an infrared laser and green visible light, the vasculature beneath the surface of the skin can be displayed in real time. AccuVein uses science and light to create an actual image of veins and
arteries beneath the skin.
Is the AccuVein Right for Me?
Absolutely! Cosmetic injections can cause a bruise, no matter how careful, well-trained, or experienced you are. AccuVein is useful for procedures that use syringes or micro annuals such as fillers, neurotoxin, PRP treatments that require blood draws, vampire facials, sclerotherapy and much more. Two key benefits you can gain from using the device is:
- You can reduce potential Adverse Events (AEs) and needle-related injuries: Being able to see the blood vessels allows you to avoid them, minimizing the potential for accidental needle sticks and decreasing patient bruising.
- You can respond to potential (AEs) immediately. By being precise down to the width of the human hair, you can enhance your response to needle injuries as they happen. Jeff explains, “If a provider were to nick a vein inadvertently, you could see the blood pooling right away and you could stop the procedure to address the potential [injury]”
Will Using AccuVein Interfere with My Procedures?
Not at all! Because the device never touches skin, you can perform your procedures while illuminating the vasculature. A wheeled stand is also made available as a hands free solution.
Prevent complications from accidental vein puncture and minimize brushing with the AccuVein Vein Visualization device. You can purchase your very own at the AccuVein store inside the Aesthetic Record Marketplace.
