A Correct answer
Explanation

Cicatricial (scarring) alopecia involves permanent hair loss from follicle destruction. Alopecia areata is NON-CICATRICIAL - it's an autoimmune condition with preserved follicles. The other options (pseudopelade, lichen planus, DLE) are all causes of scarring alopecia. The question asks for the exception (A/E).
