invaginates in the dermis Explanation: your text is looking real technical, so might as well use the technical terms in English, although (not being a medical translator) I have never seen the word invaginate in my life. However, if you search invaginate and hair there are many technical texts that use these terms Again, not my area, but from what I can see the technical terms fit. |

grow downwards into the dermis Explanation: Grow/project/extend downwards into the dermis These cells grow both upwards to form the opening of the hair canal and downwards into the dermis to form the dermal papillae of the hair follicle. http://ow.ly/EN7G30dvpJG In early fetal life an invagination develops from the primitive ectoderm (developing epidermis) and grows downwards into the dermis to form the hair shaft http://ow.ly/F1mo30dvpVf Specialized epidermis cells that extend downwards into the dermis produce hair and nails, which are also composed of dead cells. https://www.medindia.net/know_ur_body/skin_print.htm |

inpouching into the dermis Explanation: "Invaginate" or "invagination" is the technical term, but may not be understood by a lay audience. A more general term is "inpouching". I have a feeling, though, that the verb – cells or a plaque "pouching in" – is not really common, hence, you might have to reconstruct your sentence if you wish to use this option. |
