    Glossary Epidermal

    outermost skin layer

    "Epidermal" refers to anything related to the epidermis, which is the outermost layer of the skin. This layer serves as a protective barrier against environmental damage, pathogens, and water loss. In the context of hair and alopecia, the health of the epidermal layer can influence hair growth and scalp conditions.
