Petrified of having skin biopsy done

I have to have a small skin biopsy taken next week and I'm terrified.
Can anyone tell me what to expect please?

They will put local anaesthetic in, which stings a bit. After that you won’t feel any pain. If it starts to hurt even a tiny bit, tell them and they will give you more local. You’ll be fine, honestly. 💐

From my limited experience, you'll have a local anaesthetic injection first, so you won't feel a thing. They'll take the biopsy, then you'll have a couple of stitches.

Mine was fine, the results were good. I hope yours are too Flowers

I've had a couple, no big deal.
