Detailed explanation-1: -Your epidermis is the top layer of the skin that you can see and touch. Keratin, a protein inside skin cells, makes up the skin cells and, along with other proteins, sticks together to form this layer.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hard keratin is found in hair and nails; soft keratin is found in the epidermis of the skin in the form of flattened non-nucleated scales that slough continually. Keratinization is the process of transforming epidermal cell material into keratin.
Detailed explanation-3: -While your epidermis is the thinnest layer of skin, your dermis is the thickest layer of skin. Your dermis contains collagen and elastin, which help make your dermis thick and supportive of your skin’s overall structure.
