The hypodermis is mainly composed of fat tissue (adipose).
Adipose tissue is the fat layer under the skin and then muscular tissue.
Adipose tissue stores fats in the form of triglycerides, which are made up of glycerol and three fatty acid molecules. When we consume excess calories, the body converts them into triglycerides for storage in adipose tissue. This stored fat can be broken down and used for energy when needed.
Adipose tissue is also called fat tissue. It is found under the skin, around organs such as the eyes and kidneys, on the surface of the heart, around certain joints, and in some abdominal members as an "apron" over the abdominal organs. Your skin has three layers. Epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis. Adipose tissue is in the hypodermis.

Subcutaneous (subQ) injections are typically given in the fatty tissue layer between the skin and the muscle, usually in the abdomen, thigh, or upper outer arm. Make sure to rotate injection sites to prevent irritation or tissue damage.

Under the skin
Adipose tissue is formed of closely packed adipocytes (fat-cells).It is located under skin (as a subcutaneous layer), around kidneys and eyeballs and breasts. There is a large thick layer over the lower abdomen that protects the intestines. Adipose tissue stores energy, insulates and protects.
A lipoma is composed of adipose tissue. Adipose tissue is typically a fatty kind of tissue in substance. This kind of tissue that lipoma is composed of will generally be a benign tumor that's normally easy to remove.
Fat cells are mainly found in adipose tissue, which is distributed throughout the body. The two main types of adipose tissue are white adipose tissue (WAT), which stores and releases energy, and brown adipose tissue (BAT), which generates heat. Additionally, fat cells can also be found in smaller quantities in other tissues such as muscle and bone marrow.
