    process of hair follicle development and maturation

    Folliculogenesis is the process by which hair follicles develop and mature. It involves a series of stages where cells in the skin differentiate and organize to form the complex structure of a hair follicle, ultimately leading to hair growth. This process is crucial for understanding hair growth cycles and conditions like alopecia, where hair loss occurs.
