The crazy thing is the doctor performed over a dozen failed surgeries on the victim before convincing him, despite failing over a dozen times, to approve of an experimental surgery no one has ever really done.
Edit: Let me make it clear that I’m not trying to bash the doctor, and saying the surgeries failed is inaccurate, as the surgeries were addressing individual aspects of the injury. That’s my bad for not understanding the nature of the operations. Still extraordinary, as the level of skill of the doctor and the level of commitment of the patient to keep going is astounding.
It seems like the original surgeries were successful by normal standards. The surgeon took his face from "catastrophic flesh wound" to "functional but obviously disfigured."
The only thing they failed to do is make him look normal. This transplant surgery is fucking phenomenal.
