The various phases of the healing process.

Notes: After damage, inflammation leads to the formation of the granulation tissue, during which myofibroblasts appear. An important neoangiogenesis is also observed. On this granulation tissue, a new epidermis can then develop. Subsequently, remodeling of this granulation tissue occurs with apoptosis of the cells present in the granulation tissue (myofibroblasts and vascular cells) and reorganization of the extracellular matrix.
