Alopecia Awareness Month DID YOU KNOW?** - Alopecia areata is a common autoimmune disease, *NOT* a cosmetic condition. About 40% of those diagnosed experience it before the age of 20, and 80% before the age of 40. Here are a few more important facts: - The Department of Veterans Affairs provides prescriptions for veterans with diagnosed medical hair loss - I’m a in network provider with the Department of Veterans Affairs - Alopecia areata cannot be cured with topical treatments alone, as it affects the immune system, not just the scalp. - This condition can cause hair loss in any area of the body, not just the scalp. - The severity of hair loss can vary, with some experiencing small patches, while others may lose hair across large areas. Awareness is key. Let’s support those living with this misunderstood condition! 💙 #AlopeciaAwareness #SupportNotStigma #RevivedBeautyLLC Inbox me for prescriptions information https://lnkd.in/eYvdzpMk #veteranownedbusiness #veteran #

June is MG Awareness Month around the world! Myasthenia Gravis (MG) is a rare neuromuscular, autoimmune disorder. It is known as a ‘snowflake disease’ because everyone’s disease can present differently. Despite growing awareness in recent years, the journey to diagnosis remains challenging, sometimes taking up to two years. We stand with the Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of America, Inc., and other European and local MG patient organisations to raise awareness of their efforts for MG Awareness Month. Together, we can turn awareness into action. https://lnkd.in/gA_7_9wV #MGStrong #RareDisease #RareDiseaseAwareness #MGAwarenessMonth #MyastheniaGravis
