Skin wound healing remains a significant challenge in clinical medicine. Liposomes (LPs), as a versatile drug delivery system, have garnered widespread attention for their potential in promoting skin wound healing. However, the limitations of conventional LPs have hindered their broader clinical applications. To enhance the efficacy of LPs, researchers have developed various liposome-based delivery systems (LPs-DS) by integrating different materials and technologies. This review focuses on the field of skin wounds, highlighting the advantages of LPs-DS and clinical translational concepts in promoting skin wound healing. It summarizes their applications in different types of wounds and suggests potential future applications, aiming to provide a reference for further research on drug delivery systems
