Abstract
This comprehensive review explores the therapeutic potential of carbon nanomaterials, including carbon nanotubes, graphene, carbon dots, and other related materials, in wound healing applications. These materials offer a cutting-edge approach by modulating critical cellular processes, addressing current challenges in wound care, and advancing tissue regeneration techniques. The article thoroughly examines recent developments in carbon nanomaterials, highlighting their integration into wound care strategies and the ongoing efforts to overcome limitations such as biocompatibility, toxicity, and long-term safety. Unlike previous reviews, this work not only acknowledges recent advancements but also provides a critical analysis of the still existing barriers and novel strategies for effectively translating these materials from research to clinical applications. By emphasizing both the potential and the challenges, the review aims to present a unique perspective on the future of carbon nanomaterials in wound healing, paving the way for more efficient and personalized treatment options.
