    Glossary Bulge Area

    specific region in hair follicle housing stem cells

    The bulge area is a specific region located in the outer root sheath of a hair follicle. It serves as a reservoir for stem cells that are crucial for hair growth and regeneration. These stem cells can also contribute to the repair of the skin and other tissues, making the bulge area essential for both hair follicle cycling and wound healing.
