Skin wounds, the healing process, and hydrogel-based wound dressings: a short review
J Biomater Sci Polym Ed.
2021 Oct.
Abstract
Skin wounds are damage to the epithelial layer and the integrity of living tissue. The healing mechanism is dynamic and complex, and often treatments with wound dressings help in tissue regeneration, reducing the risk of infections. Polymeric hydrogels become good candidates for wet curing process. These materials prevent dehydration of the tissue and avoid discomfort to the patient when changing the dressing. In this short review, we demonstrate the importance of the healing process, the types of skin wounds, and the hydrogels that are potentially attractive as wound dressings.
Keywords: Hydrogels; wet healing process; wound dressings.
