Bionanomaterials for Skin Regeneration

Part of the book series: SpringerBriefs in Bioengineering ((BRIEFSBIOENG))

Abstract

Skin tissue regeneration has been in use for a number of decades during which it saw many developments. At the present it belongs to the new interdisciplinary field of nanomedicine which blends knowledge of biomaterials with engineering principles and understanding of pathology and function of tissues. Research in this area continues because, as of now, no synthetic product has succeeded to fully reproduce the characteristics of healthy skin.
