body. The thickness of the skin is mainly determined by the thickness of the epidermal layer. In areas where the skin is thin, the epidermal layer varies from 75 to 150 μm. The 'thin skin' is a term that describes skin found everywhere except for the palms of the
hands and soles of the feet. The skin is especially thin in areas such as eyelids. The epidermis of thin skin consists of four layers of cells which include (deep to superficial): The thin skin
lacks an additional layer present in thick skin areas which are known as the stratum lucidum. This layer mostly adds to the increased thickness of the epidermis in certain areas.

What epidermal layer is found in thick skin but not in thin skin?Thick skin is thicker due to it containing an extra layer in the epidermis, called the stratum lucidum. Thick skin actually has a thinner dermis layer than thin skin, but is still thicker due to the stratum lucidum layer present in the epidermis.
Which layer of the epidermis is seen only in thick skin?The stratum lucidum is a smooth, seemingly translucent layer of the epidermis located just above the stratum granulosum and below the stratum corneum. This thin layer of cells is found only in the thick skin of the palms, soles, and digits.
What layers of the epidermis are found in thin skin?Skin that has four layers of cells is referred to as “thin skin.” From deep to superficial, these layers are the stratum basale, stratum spinosum, stratum granulosum, and stratum corneum.
