Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra

Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra (DPN) is a common condition consisting of one or many small, dark

papular skin lesions, on the face and upper body which appear only on darker skin types. Considered

attractive by many, others seek their removal. Electrolysis is a safe, effective, quick and affordable

method of treatment.

The cause of Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra is likely to be genetically determined.

​

Treatment:

The tip of a small probe (about the size of an eyelash) is used to remove the DPNs, a small burst of energy is expelled and a small stinging sensation experienced.
