Face Transplant on Woman Who got Shot in the Face with a ShotGun!
Here’s an incredible story of a woman who got shot by her husband in the face from 8 feet, she just had a surgery to replace her face, I think this is one rare case that I can respect facial surgery. My sincere respect for being courageous!
Her psychiatrist Dr Kathy Coffman-said: ‘Once while shopping she heard a little kid say, “You said there were no real monsters, Mommy, and there’s one right there”.
‘Culp stopped and said, “I’m not a monster. I’m a person who was shot,” and pulled out her driver’s licence to show the child what she used to look like.’
Five months ago, in a 22-hour operation, surgeons transplanted 80 percent of Mrs Culp’s face using facial tissue from a donor that was placed on her own like a mask.
Almost her entire face was replaced, except for the forehead, upper eyelids, lower lip and chin.
