Just below the epidermis lies the second layer, the dermis. The dermis, although it contains blood vessels, nerves, and hair follicles, is primarily made up of a protein called collagen.. This protein forms a network of fibers that provides a framework for the growth of cells and blood vessels.ust below the epidermis lies the second layer, the dermis.

By Jim English and Hyla Cass, MD. Collagen is the protein that forms connective fibers in tissues such as skin, ligaments, cartilage, bones and teeth. Collagen also acts as a kind of intracellular âglueâ that gives support, shape and bulk to blood vessels, bones, and organs such as the heart, kidneys and liver.y Jim English and Hyla Cass, MD.
