Skin Biopsy service

A skin cancer biopsy is a minor procedure that generally takes less than 10 minutes to perform. Prior to taking the skin biopsy the doctor will apply local anaesthetic to numb the area. The doctor will use the punch to take a sample of the lesion, usually a few millimetres deep and in diameter. 

Radiation Therapy Treatments

Superficial X-Ray Therapy is a form of skin cancer treatment. It uses low energy x-rays to treat skin cancer and similar conditions, and is ideal for locations that are too difficult for surgical excision. Highly targeted, with limited side effects in the short and long term, it is an ideal treatment choice for most skin cancers.

Western District Skin Cancer Services is dedicated to skin cancer diagnosis and radiation therapy treatments for residents in the Ballarat and surrounding region.

Our purpose-built clinic and experienced radiation therapists and radiation oncologist will leave you know doubt you are in great hands.
