Skin has three layers: The epidermis, the outermost layer of skin, provides a waterproof barrier and creates our skin tone. The 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 skin. In humans and other mammals, the skin has three parts-the epidermis, the dermis and the subcutis (or hypodermis). The epidermis forms the surface of the skin. It is made up of several layers of cells called keratinocytes. These stem cells are found in the basal layer of the epidermis. 2  Hair follicle stem cells ensure constant renewal of the hair follicles. 3  They can also regenerate the epidermis and sebaceous glands if these tissues are damaged. 4  Hair follicle stem cells are found throughout the hair follicles.
