Skin loses cells every minute

Skin loses cells every minute

The human body constantly undergoes renewal, shedding old cells to make way for new ones. Skin, the body's largest organ, exemplifies this with remarkable efficiency. 

Every minute, approximately 30,000 skin cells are sloughed off, replaced by fresh ones from the lower layers. 

This shedding process, known as desquamation, helps maintain skin health, removing dead cells and debris while promoting regeneration
