Maceration occurs when skin is in contact with moisture for too long. Macerated skin looks lighter in color and wrinkly. Maceration is a phenomenon known to every person, remember how you have ever washed with your hands or washed dishes for a long time. After prolonged contact with water, the epidermis (the outer layer of the skin) swells and shrinks. And if the body is in the water for a very long time, then the skin may even slip in the form of "gloves" and "socks".
