Wound healing is a complex biological process that involves the regulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which play a critical role in cellular signaling and tissue repair. While the dual nature of ROS means that maintaining controlled levels is essential for effective wound healing, excessive ROS production can hinder the recovery process. Bioactive compounds represent promising therapeutic candidates enriched with polyphenols, which are known for their high therapeutic properties and minimal adverse effects, and are thus highlighted as promising therapeutic candidates for wound healing due to their antioxidant properties. However, their clinical application is often limited due to challenges such as poor solubility and low bioavailability. To overcome this, the encapsulation of these compounds into nanocarriers has been proposed, which enhances their stability, facilitates targeted delivery, and allows for controlled release. The present review highlights emerging innovations in nanomedicine-based drug delivery of natural antioxidants for precise modulation of ROS in wound healing. Moreover, the review elaborates briefly on various in vitro and in vivo studies that assessed the ROS levels using different fluorescent dyes. By modulating ROS levels and improving the local microenvironment at wound sites, these bioactive-nanomedicine formulations can significantly accelerate the healing process of wounds. The review concludes by advocating for further research into optimizing these nano-formulations to maximize their potential in clinical settings, thereby improving therapeutic strategies for wound care and regeneration.
