A gash closes up and forms a scar but how does it know when to stop? How can, for example, a whole part of your liver be removed and it just grows back without filling your whole abdomen with liver tissue

A wound stops healing when the body has successfully repaired the damaged tissue and restored normal function to the area. This process is regulated by a complex series of biological signals that help control the inflammatory response, cell growth, and tissue remodeling. Once the wound has been fully repaired, these signals gradually decrease, signaling the end of the healing process.
