A scalp biopsy is a diagnostic procedure where a small sample of scalp tissue is removed and examined under a microscope. This helps identify the underlying cause of scalp conditions such as hair loss, infections, or skin disorders. When is a Scalp Biopsy Needed? A scalp biopsy may be recommended if you are experiencing: Unexplained Hair Loss: To determine the cause of thinning or bald patches. Scalp Infections: To diagnose fungal, bacterial, or viral infections. Inflammatory Conditions: Such as psoriasis, lichen planus, or lupus. Suspected Skin Disorders: To rule out or confirm conditions like alopecia or scarring alopecia. Scalp Biopsy Procedure: Dr. Sireesha Rajesh begins with a thorough evaluation to determine the need for a biopsy. The procedure is quick, minimally invasive, and performed under local anesthesia. Steps include: Cleaning the Area: The scalp is cleaned and prepped for the procedure. Tissue Sample Removal: A small section of scalp tissue is carefully excised using a biopsy tool. Closure: The area is closed with sutures or left to heal naturally, depending on the biopsy type. Laboratory Analysis: The sample is sent to a lab for microscopic examination and diagnosis. Post-Biopsy Care: Patients receive detailed aftercare instructions, including wound care and infection prevention. Most patients experience minimal discomfort and can resume normal activities immediately. Results are typically available within a few days to a week, guiding further treatment.
