Skin is a Larger organ of the body,  an average square inch of skin contains 650 sweat glands, 20 blood vessels, and more than 1,000 nerve endings. Despite being just a few millimeters thick, skin makes up around one-seventh of our body weight. Skin covering an average of 20 square feet, Its most obvious job is to protect our insides from the outside, but there is much more to the skin than that. Alongside its role as a protective barrier, the skin helps us maintain the right internal temperature and allows us to sense the world through nerve endings. 

Layers of the skin

Epidermis: The epidermis is  the outermost layer of skin, provides a waterproof barrier and creates our skin tone.

The epidermis can be further subdivided into the following layers:

• Stratum corneum

• Stratum Lucidum ( Only in palm and soles)

• Stratum granulosum

• Stratum germinativum ( Basal layer)

Dermis: Dermis beneath the epidermis,  contains tough connective tissue, hair follicles, and sweat glands. The deeper subcutaneous tissue (hypodermis) is made of fat and connective tissue. The dermisis divided into two further layers .

• The papillary layer

• The reticular layer

Hypodermis : Hypodermis is not a part of the skin lies below the dermis , its purpose is to attach the skin to underlying bone and muscles as well as supplying it with blood vessels and nerves .
