dermis

Description

The dermis is the unsung tissue deep beneath the skin, enduring external forces while reacting sensitively to itch and pain. Invisible until inflammation or dryness calls for attention, it is a hidden troublemaker that steals the spotlight. Housing a labyrinth of vessels and nerves, it resembles a miniature conflict zone ever ready for chaos. Contrary to sterile medical definitions, the dermis backstage-hosts a perpetual party of pain and itch in everyday life.
