    complex organization of skin's layers and components

    Skin structure, also known as skin anatomy or dermal structure, refers to the complex organization of the skin, which is the body's largest organ. It consists of three primary layers: the epidermis (the outermost layer providing a barrier and creating skin tone), the dermis (beneath the epidermis, containing tough connective tissue, hair follicles, and sweat glands), and the hypodermis (deeper subcutaneous tissue made of fat and connective tissue). These layers work together to protect the body, regulate temperature, and provide sensory information.

      Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
