During the proliferative phase, fibroblasts influence the reepithelialization process that closes the wound. Handling cuts using acacia honey because acacia honey in wound healing has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antioxidant activities. Knowing the effectiveness of acacia honey gel on the number of fibroblasts in white rat (Rattus novergicus) incision wounds. This type of research is an experimental study design with a randomized posttest only control group design that uses acacia honey on cuts in white rats (Rattus novergicus). There was no significant difference between each treatment group: 20% acacia honey gel, 60% acacia honey gel, 80% acacia honey gel, positive control (povidone iodine) and negative control (gel without honey). Giving acacia honey gel could not increase the number of fibroblasts in white rat (Rattus novergicus) incision wounds.]]>
