Skin Tags & DPN Removal in Thanjavur

Skin Tags & DPN Removal

Skin tags (acrochordons) and Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra (DPN) are benign skin growths that are extremely common, particularly in individuals with darker skin tones. While medically harmless, they can be cosmetically bothersome — appearing on the face, neck, underarms, eyelids, and body, and increasing in number over time. At NU SKIN Aesthetic Clinique, Thanjavur, skin tag and DPN removal is performed with precision, prioritising clean removal, minimal scarring, and the best possible cosmetic outcome. Patients looking for the best skin tag removal in Thanjavur, DPN removal in Thanjavur, or consulting a dermatologist in Thanjavur for benign skin growths will find a safe, clinically guided approach at our clinic.

Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra presents as small, dark, raised papules predominantly on the face and neck — more commonly seen in individuals with Fitzpatrick skin types IV to VI. Accurate identification and careful removal technique are essential to avoid post-procedure hyperpigmentation or scarring in darker skin types.

Treatment Options

  • CO2 Laser — the primary and preferred method for skin tag and DPN removal at our clinic; delivers precise, controlled ablation of individual lesions with minimal surrounding tissue damage, excellent cosmetic outcomes, and low recurrence rates
  • Electrocautery — precise electrical ablation for skin tags and DPN; used selectively based on lesion type and location
  • Radiofrequency — gentle, controlled removal of skin tags and DPN with minimal thermal damage to surrounding skin

Important Notes

  • Multiple lesions can typically be treated in a single session
  • Post-procedure care and sun protection are essential, particularly for darker skin types, to minimise the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
  • New skin tags and DPN lesions may develop over time — periodic maintenance sessions may be recommended

Each skin tag and DPN removal treatment is performed after clinical assessment of lesion type, distribution, and skin tone — with the most appropriate removal method selected for safe, precise removal and the best cosmetic result.
