    process of skin's outer layer regenerating and repairing itself

    Epidermal growth refers to the process by which the outermost layer of the skin, known as the epidermis, regenerates and repairs itself. This involves the proliferation and differentiation of keratinocytes, the primary cell type in the epidermis, which move from the basal layer to the surface, eventually forming a protective barrier. This process is crucial for wound healing and maintaining skin integrity.
