The skin has many more crucial functions than we realize in daily life. It is therefore is not surprising that the loss of as little as 20% of your skin can condemn you to death. Architecturally, our skin is a constantly remodeled, intricately perfused and inner vated three-layered structure (epidermis, dermis, subcutis).
Specialized skin "append ages" protrude from the skin (hair, nails) or are embedded in it (sweat and sebaceous glands). |
