    balanced state where skin maintains structure and function

    Skin homeostasis, also known as cutaneous homeostasis, refers to the balanced state of the skin where it maintains its structure, function, and appearance despite external and internal stressors. This involves a complex interplay of cellular processes, including cell regeneration, immune responses, and barrier function, ensuring the skin remains healthy and capable of protecting the body from environmental threats.
