    process where skin repairs itself after damage

    Skin regeneration, also known as skin healing or dermal regeneration, is the process by which the skin repairs itself after injury. This involves a complex series of events including inflammation, tissue formation, and remodeling, where new cells are produced to replace damaged ones, restoring the skin's integrity and function. This process is crucial for maintaining the protective barrier of the body and can be influenced by factors such as age, nutrition, and overall health.
