    TLDR Fetal skin can heal without scars, offering insights for better wound treatments.
    The document reviewed the unique characteristics of fetal skin healing, which had the ability to regenerate without forming scars, unlike typical postnatal wound healing that results in scar tissue and potential disabilities. Understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms of this fetal phenotype was crucial, as it could lead to new therapeutic targets aimed at reducing fibrotic tissue formation in postnatal wound healing. The article aimed to present these regenerative healing features concisely, highlighting their potential to facilitate scarless healing.
