Difference between Light therapy and Wound healing

Light therapy vs. Wound healing

Light therapy—or phototherapy, classically referred to as heliotherapy—consists of exposure to daylight or to specific wavelengths of light using polychromatic polarised light, lasers, light-emitting diodes, fluorescent lamps, dichroic lamps or very bright, full-spectrum light. Wound healing is an intricate process in which the skin repairs itself after injury.

Similarities between Light therapy and Wound healing

Light therapy and Wound healing have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Chronic wound, Collagen, Erythema, Inflammation, Photodynamic therapy, Radical (chemistry), Serotonin, Wound healing.

Chronic wound

A chronic wound is a wound that does not heal in an orderly set of stages and in a predictable amount of time the way most wounds do; wounds that do not heal within three months are often considered chronic.
