Your skin is the dermal.
The dermal tissue structures responsible for fingerprints are dermal papillae. They are tiny extensions of the dermis into the epidermis.
Just how it sounds. It's when something, like a needle/shot for example, goes through your skin to reach your "insides" when you take a shot, the tiny hole it leaves from the needle is a skin puncture because something went through that hole to get inside your body.
You can unscrew you're dermal anchors safely after 3 months.
