TLDR Liposome-based systems improve skin wound healing effectively.

Liposome-based delivery systems (LPs-DS) show promise in enhancing skin wound healing by overcoming the limitations of conventional liposomes. This review highlights the advantages of LPs-DS, which integrate various materials and technologies, in promoting wound healing across different wound types. It also discusses clinical translational concepts and suggests potential future applications, providing a reference for further research in drug delivery systems for skin wounds.
