Epidermis Function

As we have known the outside of our body is skin, and our skin are divided into some layers. The outside of this layer called as Epidermis. Epidermis is the most important part of our skin, because this layer is covered of other body part. Below epidermis layer on our skin called as Dermis layer. Our skin itself have function to cover and as the tie of other organ parts. Some of other functions of our skin as follows:
  • Protect our bodies
  • Help keep our bodies at just the right temperature
  • Allows us to have the sense of touch


Our skin also always changes and replace by new skin cells, but we can’t see and realize this changes every time. When the cells are ready, they start moving toward to the top of epidermis layer. This trip takes about 2 weeks to a month, when the newer skin cell move to up, the old cell peeled because have died and rise up to the surface of our skin. When we see our skins are peeled, this skin layer has died, so we can’t feel pain then the skin is peeled up.
