Merz Aesthetics Announces Exclusive Partnership With AccuVein

Merz Aesthetics and AccuVein have announced an exclusive partnership allowing Merz Aesthetics to be the sole authorized distributor of AccuVein’s vein visualization system in the U.S. aesthetics market. “We are pleased to add AccuVein’s vein visualization device to the growing portfolio offered by Merz Aesthetics," says Patrick Urban, president of Merz Aesthetics North America. "This agreement enables us to deliver yet another tool that has the potential to evolve the patient experience. Our commitment to fuel confidence is amplified through partnerships such as this one, and we are excited to continue expanding solutions for our customers to make it easy to work with us.”

AccuVein AV500 uses near-infrared technology to project a vivid map of the vasculature directly on the patient’s skin, revealing the superficial veins, bifurcations, and valves often invisible to the naked eye. In cosmetic injectable procedures, AccuVein helps providers personalize treatment to each patient’s anatomy by locating and avoiding veins, which improves the placement accuracy of injectables, increasing overall patient satisfaction.
