Melasma is a refractory skin disease due to its complex pathogenesis and difficult treatment. Studies have found that human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (hUCMSC-Exos) could serve as a novel cell-free therapeutic strategy in regenerative and aesthetic medicine. It could potentially treat melasma, but the skin barrier is a challenge. This study aims to explore the safety and efficacy of hUCMSC-Exos in the treatment of melasma and means to promote its percutaneous penetration.

80 patients with melasma treated in our department were divided into four groups. 1565 nm nonablative fractional laser (NAFL) combined with normal saline treatment group was used for Group A. Microneedle,NAFL,a plasma named Peninsula Blue Aurora Shumin Master (PBASM) combined with hUCMSC-Exos were used for the other treatment groups (B, C, and D, respectively). The treatment was given four times with an interval of one month. The degree of pain post-treatment, MASI, improvement rate, physician global assessment score, satisfaction and complications after treatment were evaluated six months later.
Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes
Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.
Inclusion criteria
It is hoped that exosomes combined with 1565 non-ablative fractional laser, blue aurora or micro-needle can improve facial chloasma.

Subjects who agree not to use other cosmetic treatments related to the study during the study period.
Exclusion criteria
After 1565 nm non-ablative fractional laser treatment, patients with melasma were smeared with normal saline and to compared with those smeared with exosomes after laser treatment.
the hUCMSC-Exos were applied while rolling a microneedle roller and to compared with those used 1565 nm non-ablative fractional laser or PBASM combined with hUCMSC-Exos.
After 1565 nm non-ablative fractional laser treatment, patients with melasma were smeared with hUCMSC-Exos and to compared with those smeared with normal saline after laser treatment.What's more,compared with those used microneedles or PBASM combined with hUCMSC-Exos.
a plasma named Peninsula Blue Aurora Shumin Master (PBASM) rolling each area for 8-10 min before applying the hUCMSC-Exos in the entire face. And to compared with those used 1565 nm non-ablative fractional laser or microneedles combined with hUCMSC-Exos.
Time frame: 6 months
MASI=0.3(DMR+HMR)AMR+0.3(DF+HF)AF+0.3(DML+HML)AML+0.1(DC+HC)AC, A is the area proportion of chloasma, D is the color depth of the spots, H is the color uniformity, F is the forehead; ML is the left cheek; MR is the right cheek; C is the mandible. Scores for color depth and color uniformity of stains: total score is 4 points each, and the color degree of stains is 0 (no deepening), 1 (slightly deepened), 2 (moderately deepened), 3 (obviously deepened), 4 points (severely deepened); color uniformity is 0 points (extremely inconsistent), 1 point (slightly consistent), 2 points (moderately consistent), 3 points (obviously consistent), 4 points (almost completely consistent); damage Area proportion score: total score is 6 points, 0 is normal, 1 is <10%, 2 is 10%~29%, 3 is 30%~49%, 4 is 50%~69%, 5 It is divided into 70% to 89% and 6 points to 90% to 100%. The total score is 48 points, and the lower the score, the less serious the chloasma.
