The subcutaneous layer of the skin is not actually part of the skin, though it is usually mentioned when discussing the anatomy of the skin. It is also called the hypodermis, or the superficial fascia. It is a layer underneath the true skin and has blood vessels, adipose tissue (stored fat), nerve cells, and lymphatic capillaries. It is the loose tissue that is between the skin and the muscles. The layer that covers the muscles underneath is called the deep fascia.
