Is it important to replace the damaged skin with new skin?
Even though individual cells within the skin periodically die and are replaced with new cells, the scar collagen remains. The only time when wounds will heal without producing scars is during the fetal stage of life, when the skin produces fetal collagen, a protein that is different from adult collagen.
How long does it take for your skin to fully replace?
In adults, it takes between 28 and 42 days. In those age 50 and older, the skin renewal process can take up to 84 days. With age, it takes longer for skin to repair and replace the damaged cells.
What layer is still alive in the epidermis Why is this significant?

Will a chunk of skin grow back?
As long as some of the layers of skin are still in place, new skin will form in the bottom of the wound and along the wound edges. The wound will heal from the bottom up. When a cut or scrape removes all of the layers of skin (a full-thickness avulsion injury), fat and muscle may be visible.
