After burning his face when his head touch an electrical wire while he was working, a Texas man showed off his new look, and become the first person getting a full face transplant in US.
The world's first full face transplant was unveiled last year by doctors in Spain, a European feat that followed the first partial face transplant in 2005, done on a French woman mauled by a dog.
"It feels natural," said the 25-year-old Fort Worth, Texas, man, who received a new nose, lips, skin, muscle and nerves from an anonymous donor. The operation was paid for by the U.S. military, which hopes to use findings from the procedure to help soldiers with severe facial wounds.
It's incredible where the science have reach. Dont you think?
