Face Transplant: World’s First Full Face Off

Face Transplant: World’s first full face off has taken place in Spain, where a team of around 30 surgeons have performed the first ever full face transplant of a native.

The face transplant of the un-identified man was performed at Vall d Hebron University Hospital in Barcelona where the Spanish got new lips, eyelids, muscles, teeth, cheekbone and nose. The procedure took around 24 hours.

The man has had shot himself accidently in his face leaving a completely disfigured face that was not identifiable to put a name on.

The Head of the Medical Team that performed the miraculous procedure added that their patient wished to see his new face one week after his face transplant and reacted satisfactorily after seeing his new face. The patient communicated his gratifications in writing and gestures towards the medical team.

Although the patient is neither able to breathe and eat nor he is able to smile or speak at his own, the doctors added that he would be able to eat and breathe naturally after a week.

Previously partial facial transplants have been conducted in countries like America, China and many others; the present face transplant is unique for being full face transplant in the world.

The news is considered a major breakthrough in the history of Facial and Reconstruction Surgery and Dr. Thomas Romo of Lenox Hill Hospital in New York has declared it a great milestone while congratulating the team at Barcelona.

The first ever full face transplanted man would be our focus of interest in the coming weeks and we believe that seclusion experienced by the unidentified man would end in a paparazzi way.
