The term "skin percentage" can refer to a few different things:
1. Skin's weight percentage of your body:
Your skin makes up approximately 16% of your total body weight. It's the largest organ in your body, covering an area of around 2 square meters and varying in thickness from 0.5 mm to 4 mm or more.
2. Skin cancer statistics:
- Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States, with more than 90% caused by sun exposure.
- The five-year survival rate for melanoma that spreads to distant lymph nodes and other organs is 35%.

3. Skin wear percentage in video games:
In some video games like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, "skin wear" refers to the condition of in-game cosmetic items like weapon skins. The wear value is represented as a float number between 0 and 1, where 0 is brand new and 1 is heavily worn.
- To calculate the wear percentage, you simply multiply the float value by 100.
- For example, a skin with a float of 0.999 would have a wear percentage of 99.9%.
4. Skin complexion percentage in a population:
This is a more ambiguous concept and can vary significantly depending on the specific region or group being studied. There is no universally accepted definition or standard for measuring skin complexion percentages, and data on specific skin complexions within populations is often lacking.
