granulation tissue forms in the damaged area.

In tissue repair, the first - stage response to injury is inflammation. Inflammation helps to clear the damaged area of pathogens, debris, and starts the repair process. Granulation tissue formation, fibroblast activity, and epithelial cell migration occur later in the repair process.
