Smart needle with real-time vascular detection technology for dermal filler injections

Akeyna is making aesthetic medicine safer with a proprietary smart needle designed to detect blood vessels in real time during filler injections. The device fits onto standard syringes and alerts injectors before accidental intravascular injection — reducing the risk of serious complications like blindness and skin necrosis.
