Regeneration Techniques

are ninjutsu that allows the user to heal their bodies from damage incurred. Depending on the strength of the techniques, some may be even powerful enough to purge the body of poison.Boruto chapter 40, page 36 Some regeneration techniques may be an application of medical ninjutsu onto the user's own bodies, while others may be gathering a huge amount of chakra to repair the body.Naruto Shippūden the Movie: The Lost Tower
A potential drawback to regeneration techniques is that the body's cells are limited to how many times they can divide themselves in one's lifetime, and by accelerating that division to recreate lost limbs and organs, one is basically shortening their lifespan.Tō no Sho, page 242 Certain techniques of extreme destructive power, such as the True Fire of Samadhi and Destruction BeamBoruto chapter 33, page 13 are capable of overwhelming regeneration techniques.
Some regeneration techniques can be used to extend one's lifespan,Naruto Shippūden the Movie: Bonds but this cannot be indefinite, as it would eventually reach a limit, and the body would succumb to senescence.Naruto Shippūden episode 114
The cells of Hashirama Senju possess an immense Regeneration Ability that requires no hand seals.Naruto chapter 576, page 15Naruto chapter 578, page 6 Once Madara Uchiha acquired this power, along with becoming the Jinchūriki of the Ten-Tails, he elevated this regenerative power to the point of a form of "immortality",Naruto chapter 673, page 13 able to survive even from bisection at his waist.Naruto chapter 676, page 1
== Trivia ==
* The Creation Rebirth was considered to be the "ultimate regeneration technique".
* Victor was known for his skills in regeneration techniques,Boruto chapter 16, page 15 though in the anime, Orochimaru noted it was imperfect as he could not restore the leg and eye he lost years prior.Boruto episode 175 Furthermore, having utilised a cursed seal to extend his own life, the prolonged usage of regeneration had accelerated his health decline, the reason he permanently lost his leg and eye.Boruto episode 179
* Tailed beasts also have powerful healing capacities, able to mend injuries in themselves and others in seconds.Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 11, page 33 However, overusing this ability for a Jinchūriki will, in the long run, have dire consequences, as continuous recreation of cells is effectively shortening their lifespan.Naruto chapter 291, page 11
* Shinnō was noted to have invented many regeneration techniques, and having taught Orochimaru several of them. It was for this reason that Orochimaru desired to capture Shinnō, in hopes of extending his host's vitality.
* In the anime, Mitsuki seems to possess a degree of regeneration. After losing an arm, he stated it would heal and will be fine. In the following episode, he has a new arm.Boruto episode 176
