Epithelialization occurs within 24 hours after the injury and is characterized by the detachment, migration, proliferation, and differentiation of cells at the base of the epidermis along the wound. Another way to put it is that after an injury mitosis increases, therefore cell production increases and those newly formed cells migrate to any exposed dermis and provide a temporary protection. Epithelialization is the second step in wound healing, the first step is inflammation, such as redness and heat, followed by epithelialization, then collagen synthesis, contraction, and remodeling.
The answer is to technical. I wanted an answer to describe what it will look like, how I will know when re-epithelialization begins, is that scabs, I don't know.
An epithelial membrane is a thin layer of tissue that covers organs, lines cavities, and forms the outer layer of the skin. It consists of epithelial cells attached to an underlying connective tissue layer. Epithelial membranes serve to protect, secrete, and absorb substances.
Epithelial tissue is the type of tissue that always has a free surface exposed to the internal or external environment. This tissue serves as a protective barrier or lining for organs and cavities in the body.
Epithelial tissue covers the body surface. It serves as a protective barrier against physical, chemical, and microbial damage and helps regulate the exchange of substances between the body and its environment.
Epithelial tissue is avascular, meaning it does not have blood vessels.
Connective tissue is not lined with epithelial cells.

The cutaneous membrane is considered an epithelial membrane. It is composed of the outer epidermis (epithelial tissue) and the deeper dermis (connective tissue).
Epithelial tissue does not exhibit polarity.

epithelial tissue, connective tissue
Simple and compound epithelial tissues
apithelial tissues
Epithelial cells cover the surface of the intestine.
ciliated epithelial tissue
Epithelial tissue cells are usually rectangular or cub shaped
There is gut epithelial tissue which is associated with the alimentary canal which is an organ. The skin is the largest organ and is also made up of epithelial tissue.
