What is a Punch Biopsy?

A punch biopsy is a medical procedure used to acquire a sample of skin tissue for diagnostic analysis. At Pulse Light Clinic, we specialize in conducting detailed and precise punch biopsies to diagnose various skin conditions, emphasizing accuracy and minimal discomfort for our patients.

Characteristics and Sensation

Punch biopsies at Pulse Light Clinic are characterized by the removal of a small, cylindrical section of skin, using a specialized circular blade. Although usually painless due to local anaesthesia, some mild discomfort or sensation may be experienced during the procedure.

Biopsy Composition and Location

Punch biopsies can be performed at various locations on the skin, depending on the area of concern. We ensure to extract a sufficient amount of tissue, including the epidermis, dermis, and superficial subcutaneous fat, to allow for a comprehensive analysis.

Types of Skin Conditions

At Pulse Light Clinic, we conduct punch biopsies to diagnose a myriad of skin conditions, including, but not limited to, moles, lesions, rashes, and other abnormal skin growths. Our expert practitioners offer personalized advice and treatment options based on the biopsy results.

Surgical Procedure at Pulse Light Clinic

The punch biopsy procedure at our clinic is streamlined and meticulous, often completed under local anaesthesia. Our experienced team ensures that the process is smooth, from the initial cleansing and disinfection of the area to the careful removal of the tissue sample.

Surgical Steps:

  1. Preparation: The skin around the biopsy site is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected.
  2. Biopsy Extraction: A specialized tool is used to extract a small cylinder of tissue.
  3. Closure: The wound is secured with stitches if needed, and dressed appropriately to prevent infection.

Post-procedure, patients can generally resume normal activities swiftly, with minimal restrictions. At Pulse Light Clinic, we provide detailed post-operative care instructions and schedule follow-up appointments to monitor the healing process and discuss the results.
