GlossaryFibroplasia

process of forming new fibrous tissue during healing

Fibroplasia is the process by which the body forms new fibrous tissue, typically as part of the healing process after an injury. This involves the proliferation of fibroblasts, which are cells that produce collagen and other extracellular matrix components, helping to repair and strengthen the damaged area.
