A method for excising skin is disclosed, in which a plurality of incisions are made to collectively form a patch of skin to be reduced, instead of making a single large incision of the patch. Thus, scarring after healing is less noticeable. Preferably, the incisions are arranged such that a total area of all incised skin segments taken in a direction perpendicular to an axis of said patch changes gradually along said axis. The incisions are preferably navicular in shape, and the patch axial ends are are preferably navicular in shape in the event an elongated incision is made. A punch array is also disclosed for making the incisions simultaneously and precisely. |
