Description	Skin, the largest organ in the body, is one of the most important protective barriers against the environment. Loss of skin because of injury or disease may result in major disability or even death, and wound healing has become a major clinical problem all over the world. Cutaneous wound healing is a complex process involving hemostasis, inflammation proliferation, and tissue remodeling. In past decades, advanced wound management and treating approaches have been developed such as tissue-engineering skin substitutes and stem cell-based therapies. This chapter introduces the physiology of the healing process and discusses a variety of commercial cellular skin substitutes. Further, recent development on stem cell therapies and tissue-engineered delivery approaches—which have shown tremendous potential for wound healing applications—are highlighted.
