The sterile, single-use BIOPBLADE™ is a flexible scalpel used for cutaneous surgery, including: shave biopsy, saucerization of flat lesions and leveling of pedunculated lesions.
The unique design of the BIOPBLADE™ incorporates a comfortable and protective “Fingerguard” in addition to the flexible super sharp blade. This flexibility allows the blade to be positioned at the correct angle for the intended procedure.
The BIOPBLADE™ is ideal for removal of a variety of dermal lesions presented to the Dermatologist, Podiatrist, Family Practitioner and Plastic Surgeon.
The BIOPBLADE™ is utilized for removal of lesions, either elevated (shave biopsy) or flat (saucerization). After the site is anesthetized, the BIOPBLADE™ is held and “bowed” between the thumb and fingers. The lesion is removed at or just below the surface epithelium. Cosmetic results are normally good and the wound heals without the need for suturing. The Clinician will remove all of the lesion without overly deep penetration to avoid scarring.
