Minor Surgery: Biopsy

Many lumps and blemishes can be removed in the surgery with minimal discomfort, excellent healing and no scarring. Depending on the lesion to be removed, various minimally invasive techniques can be used.

Skin lesions can be biopsied for a conclusive diagnosis. This can be carried out as a punch biopsy where a small area is removed and one stitch inserted, or the whole lesion can be removed and sutured. Sutures will be removed at your follow up appointment, and results will be given and any further intervention planned.
