We invite you to attend an exciting conference for those who have cicatricial alopecia, their family members, friends, physicians and nurses.

The benefits of attending a CARF patient conference are great. If you're a patient and have never been to a CARF event, we'd love to have you join us. Each participant has the opportunity to meet other patients and learn how they cope with the emotional, medical and cosmetic challenges presented by cicatricial alopecia. Leading researchers and dermatologists at the forefront of treating the cicatricial alopecias will bring you up-to-date information and answer your questions.

CARF's conference is a volunteer effort produced by patients and physicians who are dedicated to serving the community of patients challenged by these rare diseases.

Don't miss this unique opportunity to form new friendships and acquire information that can provide a foundation of support and peace of mind for years to come.
