What It Is
An excision biopsy is a procedure where an entire skin lesion or suspicious growth is completely removed along with a small margin of surrounding normal skin. It is commonly performed when skin cancer, atypical moles, or deeper skin tumors are suspected.
How It Works
At ClairéDerma, excision biopsies are done under local anesthesia with careful surgical technique. Dermatologists may use:
Local anesthesia to numb the area
Surgical removal of the entire lesion
Closure of the wound with stitches
Laboratory analysis of the removed tissue
Careful margin assessment if cancer is suspected
Benefits

Accurate diagnosis through full tissue examination
May serve as both diagnostic and curative treatment
