    GlossaryCollagen Architecture

    specific arrangement of collagen fibers within tissues

    Collagen architecture refers to the specific arrangement and organization of collagen fibers within tissues. This structure is crucial because it influences the mechanical properties and function of the tissue, such as skin elasticity and strength. In the context of hair and alopecia, changes in collagen architecture can affect the health of hair follicles and potentially contribute to hair loss.
