Abstract
We conducted a noninterventional, cross-sectional online survey in Australia from April to July 2023 to investigate the impact of alopecia areata (AA) on psychosocial well-being, work productivity and quality of life among caregivers of adolescent patients with AA living in Australia. The survey results revealed a substantial psychosocial and occupational burden and impairment on mental and emotional well-being among caregivers of adolescents with AA. These findings highlight the importance of recognising the AA-related burden that extends beyond the individual patient.
