Best Answer

A clean surgical wound which has been stapled will heal faster because: a)Surgical incision is non-contaminated & chances of infection setting in are lower. b)A large gap exists between edges in a laceration which is first filled up with blood clot.This gradually shrinks as a scab and skin edges slowly grow together to meet.This takes a much longer time. c)A ragged laceration usually has non viable & dead tissue which needs to be removed by phagocytosis before new tissue can be laid down & healing can start.
