CELEBRATING 20 YEARS!

Since our founding in 2005, the Hidradenitis Suppurativa Foundation has fostered and encouraged worldwide research by developing and supporting an interdisciplinary family of scientists and physicians.

 

Educating dermatologists and other specialists about the diagnosis and treatment of HS is core to the mission of the HS Foundation—to improve the lives of people affected by HS. Because healthcare providers have the opportunity to change someone’s life by learning more about recognizing and treating HS.

 

For the last twenty years, we've endeavored to provide relief to those suffering from HS and meaningfully contribute to the rapidly evolving HS landscape. Thank you for welcoming us into the heart of the HS community for the past two decades!
