To this extract, 10 g of triethanolania + 10 g of carbopol + 800 ml of water were added for the final preparation of the healing gel, 24 animals are used in the study, the wounds of 12 of them were treated with healing gel while the rest were not treated. The evolution of the gel wounds was evaluated through controls and measurements of the inflamed area and closed wound, as well as the change in skin color and adverse reactions that topical use can cause until final recovery. The guinea pigs treated with the healing gel completely closed their wounds at 8 days and their scab fell in average time was 21 days, while the guinea pigs that were not treated with the gel closed their wounds at 12 days and the time of scab fall was at 28 days.
