| A medical device used for removing single thickness skin graft | Dermatome |
| Tissue that has been burned (second and third degree burns) but remains adherent to the wound. Nonelastic and may constrict underlying structures, impairing vital functions | Eschar |

| A synthetic, natural, or biosynthetic substance used to fill in or replace an anatomical | Implant |
| A hypertrophic scar occurring in dark-skinned individuals. The scar may become bulbous and usually does not reduce over time | Keloid |
| A procedure in which a malignant tissue mass is removed and cut into quadrants before frozen section. These quadrants are used to map the tumor and determine the exact location of malignant margins. | Mohs surgery |

| Drooping or sagging of any anatomical structure | Ptosis |
| A skin graft that consists of the epidermis and a portion of papillary dermis | Split-thickness (or partial-thickness) |
| A surgical technique in which a plane of tissue is created or an existing tissue plane is lifted, such as skin from the fascia | Undermine |

| Cells of the epidermis | Keratinocytes |
| Composed of dead keratinocytes that are filled with a protein | Keratin |
| The thick layer of living tissue between the epidermis and subcutaneous fatty layer that forms the true skin, containing blood capillaries, nerve endings, sweat glands, hair follicles, and other structures. | Dermis |

| Protective structure that covers most areas of the body, except the palms and soles of the feet. | Hair |
| 2 types of sweat glands | apocrine and eccrine glands |
| This gland is developed in areas abundant in hair follicles, such as your armpits and groin, and they empty into the hair follicle just before it opens onto the skin surface. | Apocrine sweat glands |
| This gland secretes fluid onto the surface of your skin, where it cools your body as it evaporates. | Eccrine glands |
| This gland discharges a waxy, oily secretion | sebum |
| A small gland in the skin which secretes a lubricating oily matter (sebum) into the hair follicles to lubricate the skin and hair. | Sebaceous gland |
