Description

This 3D microanatomy model of thin skin illustrates the structural complexity of skin found on most of the body. The image reveals a layered organization with a relatively thinner epidermis compared to thick skin, along with visible hair follicles extending from the dermis to the surface. Sebaceous glands and sweat glands are also clearly shown, along with a rich network of capillaries, sensory nerve endings, and connective tissue. The hypodermis features fat cells and larger vessels. Ideal for educational use, this model effectively demonstrates functions like sensation, thermoregulation, and hair growth unique to thin skin.
