    process where skin stem cells become specialized functional cells

    Skin cell differentiation is the process by which unspecialized cells in the skin, known as stem cells, develop into specialized cells with specific functions, such as keratinocytes, melanocytes, or fibroblasts. This process is crucial for maintaining healthy skin, enabling it to perform various roles like protection, pigmentation, and wound healing.
