Punch Biopsy

Hello Rubu 

i am so sorry to hear what you are going through and how upset you’ve been, which is totally understandable.

Last January I had a mole removed on my left cheek and after a week when I saw the scar, and the stitches removed, it looked like a wonky star fish and my cheek was green/yellow with bruising. I was so shocked I felt sick. It didn’t look like my face. While it healed I was given some flesh coloured tape to cover it so I don’t know if that is on offer for you?

two months after that the scar had gotten so much smaller as the skin settled. Then a few months after that I could hardly see it. Today, I don’t even notice it. If I had known this back then, it would have made the whole ordeal easier to cope with. 

So please try and look at the bigger picture and the longer term if you can. it will only get better :-)

Hi ya, 

thank for you kind and supportive words. I knew I would have a scar a small one but it’s the profile of having a wedge cut out which I wasn’t mentally prepared for. I actually chose to have my procedure as I thought it was best to remove something I wasn’t sure about. I’m know regretting it. However, I’ve called the dermatology department and they are going to take a look at it to see if it’s healing ok. I know I’m being a total idiot about it. When I was told a small line scar down the bridge of the nose I didn’t expect a hole I guess. 

Im so glad that yours has cleared up and that does gives me hope and comfort. I’ve not been offered tape or anything. The idea of the surgery was that I could cover it up better than the lump. So I hope that the case. I feel totally self centred and vain. 

Thank you for sharing your experience. Honestly very helpful. Xx

There is a product called dermaflage available from their website or amazon

It is perfect for filling in that v shaped biopsy scar covers completely and looks like skin

Perfectly fine and safe to use give it a try

Hi Libra55 

thank you so much for replying. I had a quick look on YouTube and it does look really good. Once my scar has fully formed I’ll definitely get some. It’s only been a week after the biopsy so I’m still getting used to it and it’s not finished healing yet. But I know it will leave me with an indent which is very obvious due to the location. 

Thank you for responding. Much appreciated. X

Hi Rubu

The good thing about this product is as soon as your biopsy has started to heal you can use it.

Its not messy like concealers i dont know how many different ones i bought before dermaflage its honestly the answer once you get used to it and it looks like your own skin .

I dont have anything to do with this company just want to sing its praises.

You'll  love it
