The thinnest skin on the body can be found on or around the eyelids..
The epedermis, the outer and the thinnest layer of your skin! :)
The epedermis, the outer and the thinnest layer of your skin! :)
If you're counting from outside to inside the epidermis is the first layer. The dermis is the second layer.
The epidermis is the thinnest layer of the skin. It is the outermost layer that provides a protective barrier for the body.
The most vascular and the thinnest. Areas of vascular concentration are nasal passages and the skin of the face (behind the ears is a good spot...) as the skin is thinnest there. What do you plan? (wink)
The areas of the body with the thinnest skin are the eyelids, back of the hands and tops of the feet. The skin of the inner thigh area and inner upper arm area is also fairly thin.
The thinnest animal is the ribbon worm, which can be as thin as a few millimeters in diameter. These worms have a long, slender body that allows them to navigate through narrow spaces and maximize their surface area for feeding.
Skin depth varies quite a bit from individual to individual, but the average for facial skin is 1.3 mm. Eyelid skin is the thinnest on the body and averages 0.05 mm. As a point of reference, the skin of the back is the thickest on the human body and averages 5 mm.
