GlossaryVascularization

process of forming new blood vessels in tissue

Vascularization refers to the process by which new blood vessels form within a tissue. This is crucial for delivering oxygen and nutrients to tissues, promoting healing, and supporting the growth of new cells. In the context of hair and alopecia, proper vascularization of the scalp is essential for healthy hair growth, as it ensures that hair follicles receive the necessary nutrients and oxygen.
