A light applicator system (19), for organic body (9) examination and/or treatment, includes a light applicator (1) with a distal-side insertion portion (13) with an actively light-emitting element and a needle tip (25) for piercing tissue (11) arranged axially centrally at the distal end. A positioning element (5) is fixable relative to the organic body and has a receptacle (3) for a light applicator defined position and orientation and in which the needle tip is guided axially centred. A pre-piercing aid (21) has a pre-piercing aid shaft (23) and an axially centrally arranged distal needle tip (15). The pre-piercing aid fits into the receptacle such that the needle tip is guided axially centred in the receptacle, and the pre-piercing aid has a defined orientation with respect to the organic body which corresponds to the defined orientation with respect to the organic body of the at least one light applicator.
