All skin is dead. Your elbow is thicker skin cause its at a bending point and you probably support your weight with your elbows building up calus like skin

The skin that you see on your elbow is dead like it is elsewhere on the body. It can get thickened and dry because it is on a corner of the body. Use of moisturizers will help.

It's thick and calloused, but it's alive underneath.

It has no nerve endings (you can pinch it as hard as you like but you won't feel any pain).
