The skin is the largest organ in the body. By definition an organ is made of several different tissues. In the dermis is found hair follicles, sebaceous glands, sweat glands, free nerve endings, touch and pressure receptors adipose cells and a vascular supply. All of these are made of different cell types. The outer skin layer is simple squamous epithelium.
