FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: invention concerns medicine, particularly monitoring of a human body to detect the conditions indicating a disease or elevated risk of a disease. A device and method are used for scanning the human body to identify disagreeable characteristics and performance of cosmetic improvements, and also they are modified for medical monitoring and optionally for processing. There is created a three-dimensional model of an external surface of the human body. Data which are analysed by reflectivity characteristics and surface topology are scanned to identify pathological characteristics. As people use the cosmetic system widely and frequently, it is possible to create an initial level of the patients' condition by frequent monitoring in the long run that enables to identify quickly the potentially dangerous changes of the initial level to be recorded. If required, medical products can be applied automatically precisely for treating the injured areas. The medical products can be applied on the extended skin areas in the long run to ensure the desired therapeutic effect.
EFFECT: ensured possibility of well-timed identification of the potentially dangerous changes of the initial level and application of adjustable and precisely aimed doses of a medical product to reduce risk of the undesired by-effects.
