AB  - A  classic  definition  of  wound  healing  is  that  it  is  a  dynamic  process,  involving  multiple  types  of  cells,  cytokines,  and  chemical  mediators  that  work  together  in  a  complex  interaction.  Although  knowledge  of  wound  healing  is  important  in  all  medical  fields,  it  is  particularly  significant  to  dermatologists  as  they  create  and  care  for  more  wounds  than  all  other  specialties.1  The  basic  science  of  wound  healing  can  be  divided  into  five  phases:  hemostasis,  inflammation,  proliferation,  tissue  remodeling,  and  finally  resolution  (Fig.  10-1).2  However,  these  phases  do  not  always  occur  sequentially  but  are  rather  highly  integrated  and  often  overlap.  We  will  describe  these  phases  of  wound  healing  and  also  discuss  several  important  factors  that  impair  wound  healing.
