Best Answer

The outermost layer that you see is the stratum corneum or epidermis. Below the epidermis is the dermis, the thickest of the 3 layers. The dermis is responsible for the skin's structural integrity, elasticity and resilience.

The deepest layer is the hypodermis or subcutaneous consisting of fatty tissue, sweat glands and muscles.
