11 Incredible Facts About Human Skin

You probably don’t know just how amazing your skin really is—take a look at these 11 incredible facts about human skin.

1. At a weight of about eight pounds and an area of some 22 square feet, skin is the largest organ of the human body.
2. The skin around our whole body has its own unique stretching ability. For example, the skin on your knuckles is able to stretch way more than the skin on your arms.
3. The human body is made up of about 60 percent water, without our skin, we would literally evaporate.
4. Our skin color is determined by the amount of a pigment called melanin, which protects us from the sun’s harmful UV rays. Dark-skinned people originally came from more tropical regions, while those with the fairest complexions were once native to northern regions that see less sun.
5. Goosebumps appear when we’re cold or feeling a strong emotion. This is because our muscles are tensed, causing our pores to protrude outward instead of inward.
6. The oiliness of our skin determines what type of hair will grow. Large oil glands, which produce more oil, have thinner hairs. Small oil glands, that produce less oil, have thicker hair. You can observe this on the face because where there is a lot of oil there are few hairs. Regions of the face, like the peripheral, have more hair because the oil glands there are smaller. This is why men grow beards on the peripheral of their face, not the middle!
7. You skin varies in thickness depending on the job of the body part it covers. The thinnest skin is around the eyes, at 0.05mm, while the thickest, found on the soles of the feet, is 23 times thicker at 1.5mm.
8. Every minute, you lose between 30,000 and 40,000 skin cells (that’s about nine pounds in a year)! Your skin is constantly making new cells deep inside, moving them up toward the surface to replace those that are lost.
9. Scars only form when there’s damage to the second layer of skin, called the dermis. This is because scar collagen is different from “normal” collagen and isn’t shed and replaced.
10. Melanin is also responsible for the color of your eyes. The skin that covers your eyes is very sensitive and clear.
11. You have over 11 miles of blood vessels just in your skin—more than twice the height of Mount Everest.
