    GlossaryEpidermal Homeostasis

    balanced renewal of skin cells maintaining skin's protective function

    Epidermal homeostasis refers to the balanced state of the outermost layer of the skin, where old skin cells are continuously shed and replaced by new ones. This process ensures that the skin remains healthy, resilient, and capable of performing its protective functions. For professionals, it involves a complex interplay of cellular proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis, regulated by various signaling pathways and environmental factors.
