Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The Q switched neodymium doped yttrium aluminum garnett laser will be more effcetive in reducing pigmentation of pigmented purpuric dermatosis , compared to placebo on the basis of decline in skin hyperpigmentation index.Timepoint: 16 weeks

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The safety of Q switched neodymium doped yttrium aluminum garnett laser will be evaluated in patients with pigmented purpuric dermatosis , compared to placebo on the basis of adverse events noted.Timepoint: 16 weeks
