The aim of this paper is a preliminary presentation of a new 3D digitizing system aimed to measure the facial soft tissue structures, useful for diagnostics and for the monitoring of therapies in medical and orthodontic applications. The system is based on Digital Close Range Photogrammetry with a brand new equipment, designed for use in small doctors' offices. The scanner provides accuracy and reliability, is not invasive and very compact, simple and easy for physicians and doctors. Fields of choice for this type of diagnostic facial systems are orthodontics, maxillofacial surgery, as well as cosmetic medicine and surgery. Examples of digitizing and processing aimed to face symmetry analysis are illustrated
