At Campbell Dermatology & Aesthetics, we use skin biopsies to diagnose conditions with precision, ensuring the right treatment for your skin’s health.

A skin biopsy is a simple in-office procedure where a small sample of skin is removed and tested. It helps diagnose conditions like rashes, infections, skin disorders, and even cancer. Our providers carefully select the right biopsy technique based on your needs, making the process quick, safe, and accurate.

Personalized Care for Every Concern

Types of Skin Biopsies We Perform

We offer different biopsy methods to ensure the most accurate results with minimal discomfort.

Removes the top layers of skin with a surgical blade to examine surface growths or rashes.

Uses a circular tool to remove deeper skin layers, ideal for diagnosing inflammatory or cancerous conditions.

Removes the entire lesion or lump, including deeper tissue, often used for suspicious moles or growths.

Takes a portion of a larger lesion for testing when complete removal isn’t necessary.

Expert Care with Comfort in Mind

Our dermatologists combine advanced biopsy techniques with compassionate care. We prioritize accuracy, patient comfort, and clear results—so you know exactly what’s happening with your skin and how to treat it.

“We don’t just perform biopsies. We provide clarity, comfort, and a path to healing.”

What is a skin biopsy?
A skin biopsy is a minor, in-office procedure where a small sample of skin is removed and sent to a lab for testing. It helps diagnose rashes, infections, inflammatory conditions, and skin cancers with accuracy.
A biopsy is recommended when a skin spot, growth, or rash can’t be confidently diagnosed by visual exam alone. It provides clear answers so the right treatment plan can be chosen.
The area is numbed with local anesthesia before the procedure. You may feel brief pressure, but the biopsy itself should not be painful.
The procedure usually takes just a few minutes. Most appointments are quick and performed during a regular office visit.
Depending on the concern and location, your dermatologist may perform a shave, punch, excisional, or incisional biopsy to obtain the most accurate result.
Any procedure that breaks the skin can leave a small mark, but biopsies are done carefully to minimize scarring. Your provider will discuss scar care and healing expectations.

I make an annual appointment for skin check and removals as needed. Dr Campbell always greets me with a smile, listens and answers my questions. Her MA is also nice and assists as needed. The office is comforting and clean. I like the music they play in the office and exams rooms, it’s relaxing.

Everyone has been really good to me. I would highly recommend Dr Campbell to everyone. I tell all my friends how she found my melanoma when I never saw it. Plus it didn’t bother me. I really appreciate her.
