Skin healing is far more complex than speeding up cell turnover. In this episode of The Rogue Pharmacist, Ben Fuchs discusses the phases of wound healing, the ingredients and internal factors that influence repair, lifestyle disruptors, and how to support the skin during irritation, inflammation, and recovery.
