      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: The left or right sided patches are randomly allocated by block randomization method (block sizes: 4) to receive latanoprost combined microneedling .This randomization list is prepared by Random Allocation Software.  
Patients will be randomly assigned into 2 groups(A or B)of 10 patients  by using this computer software,which is done before the first session by a neutral colleague.
Group A will receive latanoprost combined microneedling on the patches of right side of scalp and just microneedling on the patches of left side of scalp.
Group B will receive latanoprost combined microneedling on the patches of left side of scalp and just microneedling on the patches of right side of scalp.
(Actually each participant is case and control simultaneously.), Blinding description: this study is double-blinded.The investigator or outcome assessor (both of them is attending)is not present during doing procedures which is done by care provider.The patient is also unaware of applying latanoprost due to anesthesia induced by xyla-p.
(Actually each participant is case and control simultaneously.).</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention side: Under aseptic precaution microneedling is performed by Dr.pen ULTIMA-A6 manufactured in USA. The device is an automated microneedling device, with 12pins cartridge. The depth of penetration will be 2 millimeters at highest speed. The device will be moving on the on right or left side of scalp patches till uniform pinpoint bleedings will be occurred  on these patches.Topical eye drop latanoprost 0.005% (lataprost: Sina daroo, Tehran, Iran)will be applied on these patches by a strile swap twice ,immediately before and after performing microneedling. All of these procedures (microneedling combined with latanoprost)will be done every 2 weeks for 3 sessions. Intervention 2: Control side:Under aseptic precaution microneedling is performed by Dr.pen ULTIMA-A6 manufactured in USA. The device is an automated microneedling device, with 12pins cartridge. The depth of penetration will be 2 millimeters at highest speed. The device will be moving on opposite side of scalp patches that side have been received latanoprost combined microneedling till uniform pinpoint bleedings will be occurred  on these patches.This procedure( microneedling standalone) will be done every 2 weeks for 3 sessions.</i_freetext>
