During a full skin examination at Canberra Skin Cancer Clinic, our dermatologists may notice a mole, spot, or lesion that requires further evaluation. In such cases, a biopsy is recommended, a minimally invasive procedure that collects a small tissue or cellular sample for detailed laboratory analysis. This approach ensures a precise assessment, helping detect potential skin abnormalities early while prioritizing your safety and comfort.
Our biopsies are designed with your comfort in mind. The procedure is quick and minimally invasive, letting you get back to your day without stress.
We follow strict hygiene protocols and use local anesthesia to ensure you feel minimal discomfort. Every step is handled efficiently by our experienced team.


Biopsies help us examine a wide range of skin concerns, whether on the face, body, or other areas. This ensures that even subtle changes are carefully evaluated.
By collecting a small sample, we can investigate unusual growths, irregular moles, or lesions that may indicate more serious conditions, providing early and accurate detection.
Once collected, the sample is analyzed in a certified laboratory to ensure precise results. Our dermatologists carefully review the findings and explain them in detail.
We provide personalized recommendations for treatment or monitoring, keeping you fully informed and confident in your skin care plan.

Most patients feel only minimal discomfort. Local anesthesia ensures a gentle and comfortable experience.
Lab results are typically ready within a few days to a week. We’ll contact you promptly with the findings.
Mild redness, tenderness, or slight swelling at the biopsy site may occur but usually resolves quickly.
We provide simple instructions for proper healing. Most patients can resume their usual activities immediately, with minimal downtime.
