Device typeSkin-coring punch, reusable: A hand-held manual surgical instrument designed to cut out (core) sections of skin as part of a dermatological procedure to remove skin lesions or to obtain skin-tissue specimens. It consists of a handle and a cylindrical distal tip which has a bevelled, sharp cutting edge, which when pressed into the skin surface and gently rotated will penetrate and cut through the skin allowing that section to be removed. It is typically metallic and is available in various cutting head sizes; it is not a biopsy gun. This is a reusable device.
