Immune system
Yes, the hypodermis is considered a part of the skin.
The immune system, specifically the innate immune system, works to destroy microorganisms that enter the body through the skin. Components such as phagocytes and natural killer cells help to identify and target these invaders for destruction.
Langerhans cells are a subset of dendritic cells that reside in the epidermis (Part of the immune system). They have long dendrites (like arms) that capture antigen in the skin, and when they find an antigen, they migrate to lymph nodes and present to T cells allowing the adaptive immune system to respond.
There is no such thing as "skin system" however, skin is a part of integumentary system. Some components of skin are hair, nails, horns, feathers etc. Skin is considered as non-living as serves a barrier against foreign debris.
