Researchers compared epidermal wound healing in young and aged mice after a standardized full-thickness skin punch.

When senescent cells were selectively cleared during the first week after injury, closure improved, but excessive clearing led to fragile, easily re-injured epithelium. Which outcome is expected concerning aging?
