Abstract

A wound may be defined as a break in the epithelial integrity of the skin or may also be defined as a loss or contravention of cellular and anatomic or functional permanence of living tissue. Wound healing is the process of repair that follows injury to the skin and proper healing of wounds is crucial for the re-establishment of disrupted anatomical continuity and disturbed functional status of the skin. The phyto-medicines for wound healing are not only economical and inexpensive but are also supposedly safe as hyper sensitive reactions are rarely encountered with the use of these agents. Many plants have proved to possess momentous healing properties in poles apart from type of wounds. Nature has best owed on us a very rich botanical wealth and a large number of diverse types of plants grow in different parts of the country. This review examine about wound healing prospective of plants, its family, part used, extract used, model used and references which are supportive for researchers for expansion of novel wound healing formulation.
