Getting Under the Skin

The skin has 3 layers: the epidermis, the dermis, and the hypodermis (primarily made up of a subcutaneous fat layer). Beneath the surface of the skin are nerves, nerve endings, glands, hair follicles, and blood vessels. Sweat is produced by glands in the dermis and reaches the surface of the skin through tiny ducts.
