Product Description
What is punch Biopsy and what is its purpose? A punch biopsy is a procedure that checks for signs of skin Neoplasm. The condition occurs when Uncontrollable cell growth form in the skin, often due to ultraviolet (UV) light from too much sun exposure. Common symptoms include an irregular mole, a sore that doesn’t heal, or a red rash that doesn’t resolve. A dermatologist usually performs a punch biopsy. They will use a circular tool that looks like a tiny cookie cutter to take a sample of your skin. During a punch biopsy, the dermatologist will numb your skin before removing part of the skin tissue. Once your provider obtains a tissue sample, they will send it to a lab for a pathologist to review for Bad cells. Once the area of the skin is numb, the dermatologist will place a Biopsy Punch over the skin lesion. They will press down and rotate the tool to cut a small circle of skin tissue. Generally, the sample is about the size of a pencil eraser. They will then use an additional tool to lift the sample out of the skin.
