The components of skin. Epidermis is the top layer. (Epi=above, -dermis=skin). The dermis is the true skin and middle layer. The hypodermis is below the dermis. (hypo=below)
The epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue are all components of the skin.
reticular layer of the dermis
The dermis as a whole is called the vascular region of the skin. The skin is actually the largest organ in the human body and functions as a barrier against disease.
The two components of the cutaneous membrane are the epidermis, the outermost layer of the skin that acts as a barrier to protect underlying tissues, and the dermis, the deeper layer that contains blood vessels, nerves, and other structures that support and nourish the skin.

Epidermis on top, dermis in the middle and hypodermis on the bottom
The dermis contains mainly collagen fibers, which provide strength and support to the skin. Additionally, there are elastic fibers that allow the skin to stretch and recoil. Finally, reticular fibers can also be found in the dermis, providing a supportive framework for the skin cells.
The dermis contains, among other things, hair follicles, sebaceous glands, sweat glands, free nerve endings (pain), pressure/touch receptors and a microvascular supply.
Two components of the skin are the epidermis, the outermost layer that provides protection, and the dermis, the inner layer that contains hair follicles, sweat glands, and blood vessels.
The Papillary Layer which is a part of the Dermis
The papillary dermis is the most superficial layer of the dermis. Deep to it is the reticular dermis.
