Erm, about your face...

This face transplant lark obviously has some way to go before the cosmetic issues are ironed out.

Apparently this fellow didn´t dare go outside until after his op.

And of course there's this lady

Is all that swelling temporary or are American face transplant doctors just a bit crap compared to the French?

I always think that lady looks like Arnie Swchazanegger (sp!!) in the Total Recall movie when he wears that lady mask.

that guy who fell on the rail was pretty shocking to look at (no pun intended) before the surgery

Well I don’t wish to laugh at their expense, as they’ve obviously all gone through a bloody hard time, but I really wonder if what we’re seeing is the final result or if there’s some kind of after-sales service that’ll straighten it all out.

I didn't like to look, poor chap

if you did not look - he resembled a ring donut to be honest

normally this sort of reconstrcutive surgery gets better over time but when it is of this scale i think it will always be noticable with the current medical techniques

Well, noticeable is one thing, but I wonder if the French lady was a bit further into recovery when she was shown to the press as her face wasn’t swollen up like a beached whale.

Blokey looks a bit like a Simpsons character. Just an observation, don't shoot.

The woman (Connie?) who'd been shot in the face looked a bit better post-surgery. Admittedly, the baseline was low!

Se was quite attractive before the trauma http://blog.cleveland.com/medical_im...20accident.jpg

once the face "settles in" she is going to have excess skin removed and the shaping complete. might look alrite and less like a bulldog after
