In China, doctors are doing case studies on people with disfigurement. Its fascinating, but what are some of the possible cultural impacts. Its nothing like "Face Off."
Answer: well, the biggest impact is that you are walking around with someone else's face. since the face is viewed as symbolic to a lot of people, it raises a lot of ethical questions. however, if it gives people their life back, i am all for it, however i do admit to finding it quite disturbing.

Face-transplant?

Just got the new alert, that face-transplants are permissioned in UK, Whats your opinion?? How long will it take,till it becomes a part of cosmetic surgery, and we look all the same?
Answer: My opinion is based on personl experince: I was involved in a car accident nearly 7 years ago and it`s left me with quite some scarring and having to wake up look in the mirror and use ointments of all sorts to try and level the scars each and every night and day which is something that makes me shade tears each and every single day knowing that even though the SCARS level phyisically and emotionally I STILL WILL ALWAYS BE SCARED : They say what counts is on the inside but at an interview that doesn`t really matter: the interviewer doesn`t need to tell you that you didin`t get the job coz of your apperance you can tell by the way they react towardz your first apperance to them immediately! I would advice anyone who got a chance to get a Face transplant due to reasonz that know are worth to restore the way they feel deep down to go for it, as for my sittuation it`s not possible as the damage is ireversable. So my opinion in general is this surgens are GOD sent and why not take adavntage of the gifts they have and give them a chance to use this gifts too ?

When a full FACE TRANSPLANT happens, does the recipient look exactly like the donor?

Just wondering if they look for donors that have similar features and how its done. Do they, to put it simply cut off a corpses face and basically attach it to the recipient. Wouldnt it be strange for families of the donors to see their loved one walking around. Amazing.
Answer: Yes they would look similar but not identical. I don't think anyonen would recognise them and say "THAT'S MY BROTHER'S FACE!"

Why do I find FACE TRANSPLANT patients to be disturbing?

I dont know why but despite being a health professional, I find Face transplant patient to be extremely disturbing. I deal with transplant patients often in my line of work. They dont disturb me. But when I see or hear about it, it kind of "creeps" me out. It almost makes me ill to my stomach thinking about it. I know they are very unfortunate people who had a traumatic injury which I would not wish on my worst enemy! Why is it then that it disturbs me so much?
Answer: I think it represents an assault on our sense of "self." So much of an individual's identity is tied up in their face. It is the face that provides recognition of our self when we look in the mirror; that others identify us by. The idea of actually transplanting one person's face onto another's messes with our idea of what constitutes a person's individuality. The concept makes a lot of people queasy.

FACE TRANSPLANT?

whats the physics behind Face transplant?
Answer: People with faces disfigured by burns, trauma, disease or birth defects might benefit from the procedure. The alternative to a Face transplant is to move the patient's own skin from their back, buttocks or thighs to their face in a series of as many as 50 operations to regain even limited function and a face that is often likened to a mask or a living quilt. Dr. L. Scott Levin, chief of plastic and reconstructive surgery at the Duke University Medical Center, has described the procedure as "the single most important area of reconstructive research." History Self as donor (face replant) The world's first full-face replant operation was on nine year-old Sandeep Kaur, whose face was ripped off when her hair was caught in a thresher. The grass-cutting machine completely amputated her face and scalp. The machine caught one of Sandeep's braids and then pulled her head in. Sandeep's mother witnessed the accident. Sandeep arrived at the hospital unconscious with her face in two pieces in a plastic bag. An article in The Guardian recounts: "In 1994, a nine-year-old child in northern India lost her face and scalp in a threshing machine accident. Her parents raced to the hospital with her face in a plastic bag and a surgeon managed to reconnect the arteries and replant the skin." The operation was successful, although the child was left with some muscle damage as well as scarring around the perimeter where the facial skin was sutured back on. Sandeep's doctor was Abraham Thomas, one of India's top microsurgeons. In 2004 Sandeep was training to be a nurse. In 1997, a similar operation was performed in the Australian state of Victoria, when a woman's face and scalp, torn off in a similar accident, was packed in ice and successfully reattached. Yet another incident took place in 2005 when a woman's face was ripped off by a wolverine. Mouth and nose from another The world's first partial Face transplant on a living human was carried out on November 27, 2005 by a team of surgeons led by Professor Jean-Michel Dubernard (the surgeon who performed the first successful hand transplant in 1998) and Professor Bernard Devauchelle in Amiens, France. Isabelle Dinoire [4] underwent surgery to replace her original face that had been ravaged by her dog. A triangle of face tissue from a brain-dead human's nose and mouth was grafted onto the patient . In April, 2006, the Xijing military hospital in Xian, China carried out a similar operation, transplanting the cheek, upper lip, and nose of a farmer who was mauled by a bear while protecting his sheep. Full face from another Scientists at the Utrecht University and the University of Louisville are seeking approval for an experimental Face transplant operation to be performed in the Netherlands. In 2004 the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio, USA, became the first institution to approve this surgery and test it on cadavers. A group led by Dr. Maria Siemionow, located at the Cleveland Clinic, is searching for its first patient. In October 2006, surgeon Peter Butler at London's Royal Free Hospital in the UK was given permission by the NHS ethics board to carry out a full Face transplant. His team will select four adult patients (children cannot be selected due to concerns over consent), with operations being carried out at six month intervals. Surgery and post-operation treatment The procedure consists of a series of operations requiring rotating teams of specialists. With issues of tissue type, age, sex, and skin color taken into consideration, the patient's face is removed and replaced (including the underlying fat, nerves and blood vessels, but no musculature). The surgery may last anywhere from 8 to 15 hours, followed by a 10–14 day hospital stay. After the procedure a lifelong regimen of immunosuppressive drugs is necessary to suppress the patient's own immune systems and prevent rejection. Long-term immunosuppression increases the risk of developing life-threatening infections, kidney damage, and cancer. The surgery may result in complications such as infections that would turn the new face black and require a second transplant or reconstruction with skin grafts. Psychological effects of the procedure may include remorse, disappointment, or grief or guilt toward the donor. The transplant does not give the patient's face the appearance of the deceased donor's face because the underlying musculature and bones are different. Facial movements are due to the brain so the personality as expressed by the face remains that of the patient. Only the skin of the face is transferred from the donor, not the three dimensional shape nor the personality it expresses. Popular culture 1960: The procedure was very grotesquely, yet somewhat accurately, highlighted in Georges Franju's 1960 cult horror masterpiece called Les Yeux sans visage which translates to "Eyes Without a Face". 1964: Kobo Abe, Japanese author and playwright, wrote The Face of Another (1964) about a plastics scientist who loses his face in an accident and proceeds to construct a new face for himself. With a new face, the protagonist sees the world in a new way and even goes so far as to have a clandestine "affair" with his estranged wife. This novel was made into a movie by Hiroshi Teshigahara in 1966. 1990: In the 1990 movie Darkman, the central character Peyton Westlake grafts himself a synthetic face after his skin was burned in a lab accident. He uses this new material to disguise himself and hunt down the criminals responsible for his mutilation. 1997: The plot of the 1997 movie Face/Off was based on a Face transplant operation that involved changing the underlying structure and actual face shape. In the film, the transplant is shown to be reversible, with the patient being able to replace his original face if desired. 2003: The villain in the movie Once Upon A Time In Mexico underwent a Face transplant. 2005: Facial transplant surgery was featured in a 2005 episode of Nip/Tuck. The patient's body rejected the face, and it had to be removed. 2007: In the nonfiction book Heroes With a Thousand Faces, an entire chapter is devoted to facial transplant, including the pros and cons of the procedure. The chapter also includes interviews with Dr. Maria Siemionow of Cleveland Clinic and Christine Piff, founder of Let's Face It, an organization based in the UK that supports people with facial differences.

Answer: She's not totally healed yet. If you've read more about the process, the facial flaps are drawn up over time. But as to your statement that she should have been allowed to die in peace... don't you think that should be her call... not yours. Apparently she very much wanted to live. When other people think they know better about when life is worth living... or isn't... we have crossed a line that is very scary.
