Abstract
In the past 30 years the interest in problems of wound-healing has dramatically increased. Partly this is due to the fact that clinicians would like to understand the nature of the disease they treat. But also this is because the experimental model of wound repair gives the opportunity to study the involved cell system in a better way. My own research on wound healing concerning laser biostimulation has been confined to epithelial surfaces of the body. I would like to restrict my remarks largely to results obtained from investigating repair of the skin.
