Description: The stages of wound healing are the biological processes that occur in the human body after an injury. These phases are fundamental for the recovery and restoration of the integrity of the skin and underlying tissues. Generally, they are divided into four stages: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. In the hemostasis phase, the body initiates an immediate process to stop bleeding by forming a clot. The inflammatory phase follows, where an immune response occurs to prevent infections and clean the wound of damaged tissue. Subsequently, in the proliferation phase, tissue regeneration takes place, where new blood vessels are formed, and collagen is produced to close the wound. Finally, in the remodeling phase, the scar tissue strengthens and reorganizes, which can take months or even years. Understanding these stages is crucial for the proper management of wounds, as each phase has specific characteristics and needs that must be addressed to ensure optimal healing.
