Rhythm restoration1

  • Synchronizing skin sealing and deeper repair destabilizes recovery

    Where this hypothesis actsOlder-donor skin equivalents during barrier recovery and dermal remodeling

    What is proposedSeparate sealing-associated oxidant pulses from remodeling-associated protease pulses

    With whatChange of environment or regimen

    HowIndependently vary pulse timing while holding integrated magnitudes, mechanical loading, temperature, and humidity constant

    Possible resultExpected stabilization of barrier recovery and remodeling, with the dominant cycle multiplier below one
