| Description: |
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.
