    Glossary Epidermal Turnover

    process of shedding old skin cells and generating new ones

    Epidermal Turnover, also known as Skin Cell Turnover or Skin Renewal, is the process by which the skin continuously sheds old, dead cells and replaces them with new, healthy ones. This cycle typically takes about 28 days in a healthy adult, but can vary based on factors like age, skin type, and overall health. This process is crucial for maintaining skin health, as it helps to repair damage, maintain a youthful appearance, and protect against environmental stressors.
