Skin biopsy Skin biopsy is considered to be the golden standard that is used for confirming most of the skin diseases. It is a very simple and a quick process which involves nipping off a small chunk of skin tissue with the disease for analysis. The wound usually heals in a couple of days. Sometimes, when the skin lesion is small, the skin biopsy is curative as the lesion is completely removed. The removed skin tissue is subjected for dermatopathology studies to see for changes within the skin. Get in touch with the experts!
