      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Not blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Other design features: This study is going to be done as a split-face study.So each patient will be its  own control, Randomization description: For random allocation of two types of treatment (laser with or without microdermabrasion), at first, face of subject is divided to 2 parts (right and left),then we generate 30 (number of our subjects) random samples with block randomization with considering 2 treatments and 4,6 and 8 blocks .Finally , we consider one side of face (that is chosen randomly) constant and based on random sequence generated, allocate the treatment with laser and microdermabrasion to that side of face.It is obvious that the other side will undergo treatment with laser alone.  
For generation of random sequence , we will use an online software with this address :

      <phase>N/A</phase>
      <hc_freetext>Melasma.</hc_freetext>
      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group:The side allocated to receive microdermabrasion  prior to laser therapy , is treated with a total of 3 pass in each  session at the following visits : baseline , month 1 , month 2 and month 3.After degreasing with alcohol and waiting for the skin to dry , 3 pass  microdermabration is done  using 6 mm head and 400 mmHg pressure to achieve mild erythema.After washing with water and drying, treatment  with Q-switched Nd:YAG laser (1064 nm ) with fluences of 2.5 -6.5 J/cm²  with a 4 or 6 mm spot ,using 2 laser passing will be done. Intervention 2: Control group:The other side of face is treated  with Q-switched Nd:YAG laser (1064 ) with fluences of 2.5 -6.5 J/cm²  with a 4 or 6 mm spot ,using 2 laser passing.</i_freetext>
