Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra (DPN) Removal

Revida eRaze™ CO₂ Laser Treatment in Bristol by Dr Brad

Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra (DPN) causes small brown or black raised bumps on the cheeks, temples, jawline, and neck. While harmless, they can create uneven texture and affect your confidence.

Revida eRaze™ delivers smooth, safe, and precise doctor-led CO₂ laser removal using the DEKA SmartXide DOT system—offering excellent aesthetic blending with minimal downtime, especially suited for skin of colour.

Why Choose CO₂ Laser for DPN Removal?

DPN lesions sit in the upper dermis; improper removal risks pigmentation issues or depression scars.

The Medical Advantage

Performed exclusively by Dr Brad to ensure precise diagnosis and safe vaporisation without cutting or unnecessary trauma.

  • Precision Vaporisation: Removes each small bump cleanly
  • Safe on All Skin Tones: Vital for Fitzpatrick IV–VI patients prone to PIH
  • Excellent Blending: Laser feathering creates seamless transitions

Efficient & Predictable

Treat multiple lesions or entire facial clusters in a single session with rapid healing times.

  • Tiny pinpoint crusts fall away in 5–7 days
  • Significantly safer than cryotherapy or surgical snips
  • Restores smooth, even facial texture

What Is Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra?

Benign epidermal growths related to seborrhoeic keratoses:

  • Small brown to black raised bumps (1 to 5 mm)
  • Smooth or slightly rough texture
  • Often appear in linear “cheekline patterns”
  • Hereditary and more common in skin of colour

Why Region-Based Pricing?

We avoid unsafe “unlimited removal” models:

  • Protects against post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH)
  • Ensures safe treatment volumes per session
  • Guarantees meticulous, high-quality results

  • Days 4–7: Crusts fall away naturally, exposing fresh pink/brown skin
  • Weeks 2–6: Pigmentation normalises and skin tone/texture smooths completely

Aftercare Guidance

  • Essential daily SPF protection for several weeks
  • Avoid retinoids and active acids for 10 days
  • No picking, scratching, or exfoliation
  • Gentle cleansing only; makeup allowed once crusts shed
