    Glossary Wound Healing

    body's process of repairing tissue after injury

    Wound healing, also known as wound repair or tissue repair, is the body's natural process of regenerating skin and tissue after an injury. This complex process involves four overlapping stages: hemostasis (stopping the bleeding), inflammation (cleaning out the wound), proliferation (building new tissue), and remodeling (strengthening the new tissue). Understanding these stages is crucial for both laypersons and professionals to manage and optimize recovery from injuries effectively.
