" Sorry I just read your post or I wouldve answered earlier .., Ive had a skin biopsy done. It was the punch biopsy. My understanding is that it does into the dermis, epidermis and subcutaneous fat, so you get a great depth of the skin on the sample. Both of my biopsies were positive for Lupus. Please feel free to personal message me if you have any other questions! "
