Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
the efficacy of microneedling with Platelet rich plasma(PRP) expected to be better than microneedling alone in treating atrophic post acne scars in a split face design.Timepoint: the patients will be evaluated after 5months of the beginning of treatment to see for change in both qualitative and quantitative goodman and baron score.—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To determine the qualitative and quantitative improvement in acne scar grading using microneedling plus PRP. 2) To determine the qualitative and quantitative improvement in acne scar grading using microneedling alone. 3) Compare efficacy of microneedling plus PRP and microneedling alone. 4)To determine visual analog score on both sides by patients and physician . 5)Compare the visual analog scores on both sides to determine patient satisfication Timepoint: patients to be evaluated every month and photographs to be taken to see the response .—
