A wound represents a break or damage to the continuity of the skin or internal tissues, triggering a complex biological cascade known as wound healing. This process is typically divided into overlapping phases, beginning immediately with hemostasis, where vasoconstriction and platelet aggregation limit blood loss. This is followed by the inflammatory phase, which involves immune cells clearing debris and bacteria. Next, the proliferative phase promotes granulation tissue formation and the laying down of new extracellular matrix by fibroblasts. Finally, the maturation and remodeling phase gradually strengthens the underlying tissue structure through the deposition of collagen, eventually restoring tensile strength and minimizing scarring. The efficiency of this healing process depends on factors such as the wound type, depth, systemic health, and local biological environment.
