Wound healing, or wound repair, is the bodys natural process of regenerating dermal and epidermal tissue. When an individual is wounded, a set of events takes place in a predictable fashion to repair the damage. These events overlap in time (Midwood et al., 2004) and must be artificially categorized into separate steps: the inflammatory, proliferative, and maturation phases (Some authors consider healing to take place in four stages, by splitting different parts inflammation or proliferation into separate steps (Quinn, 1998; Dealey, 1999; Iba, 2004).
