Selfie Health? Hibiscus Health Uses Facial Scans to Detect Diabetes Risk

Can taking a selfie be good for your health?

This week on StartUp Health NOW, we explore a revolutionary new approach to health screening with Kavi Misri, CEO & Founder of Hibiscus Health.

Discover how Hibiscus leverages smartphone selfies to analyze facial blood flow and identify potential risks for diabetes and other conditions:

  • Easy, intuitive screenings designed for broad adoption
  • Works with existing smartphone cameras and webcams
  • Unlocking the potential of selfies for health screening

Plus, learn about StartUp Health’s Cardiometabolic Health Moonshot Community and how it helps innovative companies accelerate growth.
