|
stratum granulosum
|
-3-5 cells thick
-cells become flattened -cells produce toughening keratin and keratohyaline granules |
|
stratum lucidum
|
-very thin layer
-found only in thick skin -densely packed with keratin |
|
stratum corneum
|
-15-30 cells thick
-cells dead -accounts for 3/4 of epidermal thickness -cells very tough and water resistant |
|
dermis
|
-vascularized/contains nerve endings
-dense, interlacing collagen and elastic fibers -provides skin tone/ strength and toughness -fiber direction provides tension lines (langer lines) |
|
langer lines
|
tension lines in skin
in cuts, if you cut along a langer line the wound will close up nice. if you cut across, the would will gap |
|
dermal layers
|
papillary layer
reticular layer |
|
papillary layer
|
-areolar connective tissue
-collagen/elastin fibers form loose mat -abundant blood vessels, nerve fibers, lymphatic vessels -superior surface forms dermal papillae |
|
areolar connective tissue
|
connective tissue, loosely organized
|
|
reticular layer
|
-80% dermal thickness
-primarily dense irregular connective tissue -collagen/elastin fibers extend up into papillary layer and down into subcutaneous layer |
|
dermal papillae
|
form fingerprints
form superficial layer of dermis--protrude into epidermal layer |
|
erythema
|
unusually red
heat, inflammation, allergic reactions-- superficial capillary bedsengorged |
|
stretch marks
|
rapid changes stretch skin "too much" damaging collagen fibers in dermis
deep fascia is loosened due to protein breakdown--leading to reduced cohesion btw collagen fibers |
|
fascia
|
layer or boundar in body
fascia suround all our muscles, etc... |
|
1st degree burn
|
limited to epidermis
cells quickly replaced from basal layer |
|
2nd degree burn
