STAGES OF WOUND HEALING

  • Hemostasis

    When the initial wound occurs, the platelets stick together to form a clot. Blood vessels constrict to slow down blood flow. Coagulation occurs and reinforces platelet plug.

  • Inflammatory

    This stage causes localized swelling. Inflammation helps to control bleeding and prevents infection. During this stage, bacteria are removed from the wound area. It is expected to experience heat, pain and redness during this phase. This is a natural response.

  • Proliferative

    During this phase, self repair continues. New tissue made up of collagen and other substances rebuilds the wound. The wound begins to 'contract' or come together. A new network of blood vessels are formed so the area can receive oxygen and nutrients.

  • Maturation

    This is the final stage of wound healing. Collagen fibers cross link to make the skin stronger. This phase usually begins at 21 days but can take up to one year. The area will only be 80% as strong as it was previously at best.
