It starts with burn victims; however it will not be long when you can get a new face from a dead person. They may have been in an auto accident and they are in their 30’s. Before they are cremated, numerous vital organs are removed as well as their face. The face is placed in an ideal temperature setting and then is sent to your hospital. Your face is removed and another person’s face is placed on you. The technology is there and it is ready to go. Cleveland Clinic hopes to be the first to do the surgery. Once the surgery is done other cosmetic surgery can be done to make your new face suitable to you. Finding donors may be difficult. Patients are available. |
