Safe, Effective & Cosmetic Removal of Skin Tags and Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra (DPN)
Skin tags and Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra (DPN) are very common, harmless skin growths that often cause cosmetic concern, irritation, or discomfort. Though medically benign, they can affect confidence—especially when present on visible areas like the face, neck, eyelids, or underarms.
At Desais Skin Clinic, RT Nagar, we offer advanced skin tag and DPN removal treatments under the expert care of Dr. Sanjay S Desai (MBBS, MD – Dermatology), a senior dermatologist with 17+ years of experience. Our treatments are quick, safe, minimally invasive, and designed to give excellent cosmetic results with minimal scarring.
What Are Skin Tags?
Skin tags (acrochordons) are soft, flesh-colored or slightly darker growths that commonly appear in areas of skin friction. They are non-cancerous and painless but may increase in size or number over time.
Common Areas for Skin Tags:
- Neck
- Underarms
- Eyelids
- Groin
- Under breasts
Skin tags are more common in adults and may be associated with insulin resistance, obesity, hormonal changes, or genetics.
What Is Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra (DPN)?
Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra (DPN) is a condition characterized by multiple small, dark, raised papules, usually seen on the face and neck. It is more commonly seen in individuals with darker skin tones.
Common Areas for DPN:
- Face (cheeks, temples, forehead)
- Neck
- Upper chest
- Back
DPN is completely benign but often increases with age.
