GlossaryRe-epithelialization

process of new skin cell growth over a wound

Re-epithelialization is the process by which new skin cells (epithelial cells) grow and cover a wound, helping it to heal. This is a crucial step in wound healing, as it restores the protective barrier of the skin, preventing infection and further injury. For professionals, it involves the migration, proliferation, and differentiation of keratinocytes to re-establish the epidermal layer.
