What Is OligoScan at Yoyime?
OligoScan is a rapid, non-invasive wellness screening that uses optical spectrophotometry at selected points on the palm. The device processes reflected-light readings to generate a digital report showing estimated patterns for minerals, trace elements, selected heavy metals and oxidative balance.
At Yoyime Clinic Dubai, our clinician reviews the report alongside your health history, symptoms, diet, medicines, supplements and possible exposures. This context helps turn a technical screening report into practical, personalised next steps. OligoScan complements clinical assessment and appropriate laboratory investigation.

Everything you need to know about OligoScan
OligoScan in Dubai — What to Know Before Screening
OligoScan evaluates optical patterns at the skin surface and presents device-generated estimates. It is different from laboratory analysis of a blood, serum or urine specimen and should be interpreted as a complementary wellness screen. Clinical decisions about deficiency, toxicity or treatment require appropriate medical evaluation and validated testing.

Best for
Adults seeking a rapid overview to discuss within personalised wellness planning.
Screening time
The optical readings are brief; consultation and report interpretation add appointment time.
Sensation
The handheld device rests against selected areas of the palm.

Follow-up
Timing depends on your goals, clinical context and any confirmatory investigations.
When Should You Consider an OligoScan?
A consultation can help when you want an accessible starting point for a broader discussion about nutrition, lifestyle, supplements or possible environmental exposures.
People with known or suspected toxic exposure, significant symptoms or occupational risk benefit from prompt medical assessment and exposure-specific laboratory testing. A screening conversation can clarify the most appropriate next step.
Patterns Included in the OligoScan Report
The digital report presents optical estimates across several mineral, trace-element and related categories. Our clinician reviews findings alongside your history and does not interpret a single device result in isolation.

How Can OligoScan Support Your Wellness Assessment?
OligoScan uses optical measurements from selected points on the palm to generate estimated patterns related to minerals, trace elements and oxidative balance for clinician-guided wellness review.
OligoScan provides screening estimates rather than direct laboratory measurements. Results should be interpreted alongside clinical assessment and laboratory testing may be recommended before diagnosis or treatment decisions.
For Mineral and Trace-Element Patterns
The report provides estimated patterns for selected minerals and trace elements that can be reviewed alongside your health history.
For Oxidative-Balance Indicators
OligoScan generates device-based indicators related to oxidative balance and antioxidant status for broader wellness discussion.
For Heavy-Metal Estimates
The report may include estimated patterns for selected metals, which should not be interpreted as confirmed exposure or toxicity.
For Personalised Follow-Up
Our clinician reviews the findings in context and may recommend validated laboratory testing, dietary review or other appropriate next steps.
Who Can Benefit from an OligoScan Consultation?
An OligoScan consultation may suit adults interested in a clinician-guided wellness review of estimated mineral, trace-element, heavy-metal and oxidative-balance patterns.
OligoScan is a wellness screening tool rather than a diagnostic laboratory test. Findings should not be used alone to diagnose deficiencies, toxicity or disease and laboratory confirmation may be recommended where clinically appropriate.
People Reviewing Nutritional Wellness
OligoScan findings can support discussion around diet, supplements and broader nutritional goals.
People Exploring Mineral and Trace-Element Patterns
Estimated mineral and trace-element patterns may provide additional context during a personalised wellness assessment.
People Interested in Oxidative-Balance Indicators
The report includes device-generated indicators that can be reviewed alongside lifestyle, nutrition and health history.
