Full-face virtual biopsy scan
Sometimes the skin of the face has already been through enough: examinations, surgical biopsies and Mohs surgeries that left scars. At On.Top we developed the Full-Face Virtual Biopsy: a comprehensive, advanced scan with the LC-OCT device, which lets us see into the skin at the level of the single cell. The technology identifies microscopic cancerous BCC lesions (basal cell carcinoma) even before they are visible to the eye, and makes it possible to treat them with non-invasive methods, to prevent further scars and preserve the look of the face.

Full-Face Virtual Biopsy

Who it is for

  • If you were diagnosed with or previously treated for BCC and want to prevent new lesions from appearing.
  • If you have previously had biopsies or surgery on your face and want to avoid new scars.
  • If you have sun damage on your face and want a full and accurate picture of your skin health.
  • If you believe it is better to detect and prevent early, rather than wait for complex surgery.

What is the Full-Face Virtual Biopsy

LC-OCT technology provides three-dimensional optical imaging at the cellular level, showing the layers of the skin in real time at exceptionally high resolution. In a Full-Face scan we scan all of the facial skin for about 45 minutes, to obtain a complete picture in a single session. An integrated artificial intelligence (AI) system helps the medical team identify microscopic BCC lesions in a fraction of a second and define their borders with maximum accuracy. Lesions detected at this early stage are marked and treated with non-invasive methods (such as dedicated ointments), which avoid the need for surgical biopsies and Mohs surgeries.

Why it matters especially on the face

The face is our calling card, so preserving its aesthetic appearance is of crucial importance. Every surgical incision may leave a visible scar. The Full-Face examination is intended to reduce, as much as possible, the need for surgery among higher-risk patients, by detecting and preventively treating tiny lesions, while they are still microscopic and respond well to non-invasive treatment.

What you get

A comprehensive, advanced scan

A full map of the facial skin using innovative LC-OCT technology.

Immediate peace of mind

Real-time diagnosis and a clear medical picture already during the session.

Avoiding invasive procedures

Saving time and avoiding unnecessary biopsies or surgeries that leave scars.

A personalized treatment and follow-up plan

Good to know

LC-OCT technology makes it possible to diagnose most lesions accurately without the need for a surgical biopsy. However, in some cases we may still recommend a regular biopsy to complete the diagnosis. The examination gives the medical team the most accurate information for making a decision, with the aim of avoiding unnecessary incisions and procedures.

What is the difference from mole mapping?

Computerized mole mapping is intended for follow-up and external diagnosis of lesions and moles that stand out on the surface of the skin (such as early detection of melanoma). By contrast, the Full-Face Virtual Biopsy is devoted entirely to a microscopic scan of the facial skin at the cellular level. It focuses uniquely on accurately detecting BCC lesions that are not yet visible to the eye, and makes it possible to treat them early, before they have become a tumor that requires surgery.

The Full-Face examination gives you the most comprehensive and safe diagnosis of the skin of your face, so you can know more, and cut a lot less.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

In a regular examination the focus is on a specific spot or lesion about which there is a suspicion. In a Full Face examination, by contrast, we scan all of the facial skin that appears normal, in order to identify tiny changes before they become noticeable to the eye and detectable externally.

Not at all. The examination involves no pain, incisions or radiation exposure, and has no side effects. All that is required of you is to rest calmly lying down for about 45 minutes during the scan.

The scan itself takes about 45 minutes, in a relaxed and quiet atmosphere.

No medical referral is needed. Anyone interested in a comprehensive examination and peace of mind regarding the skin of their face is welcome to book an appointment directly.

Since this is a diagnostic examination, you can submit a request for reimbursement from private health insurance, according to the terms of your personal policy.

The results of the examination can be viewed in real time. Already at the end of the session you will receive from the doctor a detailed explanation and clear recommendations for next steps.

The aim is to cover 100% of the facial area, but in practice full coverage cannot be guaranteed. Therefore new BCC lesions may appear later, and the examination is not hermetic. We recommend continuing regular follow-up and coming in for an examination when a change appears in the skin.
