Is there any difference between fascia and skin ?Are both the different names of the same thing?
The superficial fascia is the lowermost layer of the skin found in nearly all parts of the body and it usually blends with the reticular region of the dermis. But that doesn't mean it's a part of the dermis. The subcutaneous tissue/hypodermis/superficial fascia is NOT part of the skin but lies beneath the  dermis of the skin. Therefore, it can't be used as an alternative name for the skin.
