    Glossary Follicular Hyperkeratinization

    overproduction of keratin blocks hair follicles, causing inflammation

    Follicular Hyperkeratinization is a condition where the skin cells around hair follicles produce too much keratin, a protein that helps form the outer layer of the skin. This excess keratin can block hair follicles, leading to issues like acne or folliculitis, where the follicles become inflamed.
