WHAT
IS
DPN
REMOVAL?
DPN removal is a cosmetic treatment designed to reduce the appearance of dermatosis papulosa nigra (DPN) — small, dark, raised skin growths that commonly appear on the face and neck.
Your provider will assess the area and recommend an approach based on your skin type, concerns, and goals.
Tired Of DPNs Becoming More Noticeable?
Small dark bumps can become more noticeable over time, especially around the face and neck.
If you're ready for clearer-looking skin without changing your natural appearance, personalized DPN removal may be right for you.
What Can DPN Removal Help With?
DPN removal may help improve the appearance of:
- Dermatosis papulosa nigra (DPN)
- Small, dark skin growths
- Raised facial DPNs
- DPNs around the neck
- Uneven-looking skin texture
Your provider will assess the area and explain what can realistically be achieved.
Not every skin growth is a DPN, so proper assessment is important before treatment.
