Abstract: Vitamin D, as an indispensable trace element in the human body, plays an important role in a variety of biological processes. In recent years, studies have suggested that vitamin D is related to the development of scars, and may become a potential effective intervention method for pathological scars. This paper reviewed the relationship between vitamin D and scar formation, including the regulation of receptor pathway, growth factor pathway, inflammatory cell pathway and other mechanisms. Specific applications of vitamin D in scar treatment were also reviewed, aiming to provide ideas for further exploring of its role in the field of scar treatment in the future.
