The goal of this clinical trial is to test how safe and effective it is to treat early form of cancer cells found in the upper skin layer of the face, using a light-sensitive cream used in combination with a light source.
The main questions this trial aims to answer are:
* to confirm using laboratory testing, how much of the affected facial skin cancer section the treatment was able to remove, and; * seeing how many participants had no remaining affected facial skin cancer sections after treatment.
Participants who qualify will be asked to complete 12 visits in total and will receive a total of two treatments, after voluntarily consent has been given.

Inclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria
Participants will have their facial isSCC prepped then treated with Aminolevulinic Acid 20% Topical Solution (Levulan® Kerastick® Applicators) (ALA), followed by blue light therapy administered for 16 minutes and 40 seconds to deliver the total desired light dose to the isSCC lesion.
Other names: Levulan® Kerastick®, BLU-U® Blue Light Photodynamic Therapy Illuminator
Time frame: Up to 16 weeks
Histological clearance is defined as the absence of detectable evidence of isSCC tumor cell nests by the central pathology reports
Time frame: through treatment completion, an average of 12 weeks
Complete Clinical Clearance will be measured by the Investigator and is defined as when there is no clinically visible lesion remaining at the site.
Time frame: up to 16 weeks
Observations and changes noted in the aesthetic appearance (Erythema, Flaking/ Scaling, Crusting, Swelling, Vesiculation/ Pustulation, Erosion/ Ulceration) of the treated isSCC lesion will each be graded on a scale of 0 to 4, with 0 as no presence and 4 as a severe outcome.
