"After 24 hours of the car accident, I changed my face to another person."

At the end

The discussion on ethical issues must not be ignored about "face -to -face". Because it is not like other organ transplant surgery, it belongs to the treatment of life, and after surgery, patients can be exposed to high -dose, multiple drug immunosuppressive sequelae, and may shorten the patient's survival. In addition, it also involves issues such as the supplier and whether the family agrees to donate, how to perform patients, and how to ensure that the subject obtains such high -cost surgical treatment methods fairly. But there is no doubt that this repair plan still has huge potential, bringing hope to the disfigurers.

Materials used in facial 3D reconstruction include metal plates of titanium materials, medical resins, polytetrafluoroethylene, polyether etherone and other metal materials and biomagon materials. Sometimes the blood vessels and bones of other parts of the patient need to be used. The cost of using this repair surgery is usually high, ranging from 200,000 yuan to 300,000 yuan. Because the facial vessel nerves are complex and the facial bones are different, and the shape is irregular, which is not conducive to resetting and fixing, this repair method is also difficult.
