Wound healing occurs through three phases: inflammation, proliferation, and maturation. During inflammation, blood vessels constrict and immune cells are attracted to the wound to remove debris. Proliferation involves new blood vessel formation through angiogenesis, collagen deposition by fibroblasts, and re-epithelialization of the epidermis. Maturation is marked by remodeling of collagen and decreased vascularity. Scars can form after healing and include atrophic, hypertrophic, or keloid types. Treatment depends on the scar but may involve pressure, silicone gel, steroid injections, or surgery combined with radiation.
