    GlossaryWound-Induced Hair Growth

    process where skin injury stimulates new hair follicle formation

    Wound-Induced Hair Growth refers to the phenomenon where hair follicles regenerate and new hair growth is stimulated in response to skin injury. This process involves the activation of stem cells and signaling pathways that are typically dormant, leading to the repair of damaged tissue and the formation of new hair follicles. This concept is being explored for potential treatments for conditions like alopecia.
