Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra
It is common to see adults of color with multiple small hyperpigmented dots on the face that resemble raised dark brown or black freckles. These are called dermatosis papulosa nigra (DPN). They are often referred to as moles, but in fact are non-cancerous seborrheic keratoses. While the bumps usually pop up on the face and neck, they can also appear on upper back or chest. DPN usually starts during adolescence but the bumps tend to grow bigger and increase in number as you age.
