Re: Face Transplant

When you transplant a face you take everything from the cadavers face except the musculature and plop on your patients face with skin, fat, and veins all there. The patient then has to take immuno-suppressant drugs for the rest of their life to keep the patient's system from refusing the new face.

The procedure is generally used for extreme cases of burn victims, and the drugs increase chances of getting diseases and cancer.

Not good...

Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
