Wound healing is a complex interchange, orchestrated between cellular components that
play their respective parts signaled by and mediated by different cellular instruments of
healing. When healing is performed well, the final product is a thing of beauty. When healing
is delayed, interrupted, or excessive, then unsightly scars of chronic painful wounds that are
frustrating to the patient and physician occur.
