As you can tell from my name, with a face like mine I'd like to go for a transplant..... what do you think? Ethical? Safe?

If I had had my face torn off by a dog, like the first face transplant recipient, I guess I would go for it. However, the blood supplies to the face are so complex, and the consequences of rejection so horrific, that I would have to be very desperate. It is not an operation I can imagine ever being done for purely cosmetic reasons.
I must say that the idea of a face transplant makes me squirm. I don't know how the surgeons manage to get over their feelings enough to work on such operations.

My opinion is that the owner of the chimp would not have had him. He had exchange into wild and unruly and he became maximum suitable saved in a habitat far flung from those with handlers that are professionally experienced to look after grownup chimps. I understand the owner raised and cared for the chimp, yet chimps are no longer people and that they have wild instincts. they're some thing like 8 circumstances greater than people and characteristic been hassle-loose to tear faces and limbs off people for no reason in any respect. My opinion approximately using human drugs on chimps? No animal could be on Xanax or any human drug with out somebody information each and all the implications the two between the situation its getting used for or the area outcomes, or indicators of withdrawal.

I have facial scaring due to a car crash 6 years ago.
It is very prominent and ppl still stare.
The scar runs from right in between my eyes in a low arc about 8 inches long, then joins the bottom of my left ear.
Parts of my nose and left ear are also missing.
Also, I have light scaring on most of my forehead due to gravel in the road which I hit head first.
I look a bit of a mess, but I can deal with it and get on with my life, though ppl do stare often, make comments, cross the road to avoid me, and treat me like a thug as I also have shaved hair and am a 36 yo male.
I would never consider a transplant, but my heart goes out to those who are so disfigured that it is their only option.
Trust me, a face like mine fcuks with your mind, so you couldn't possibly start to know how other poor ppl feel.
I say do it, good luck, and God bless.

I don't know why it wouldn't be ethical. People's bone structures are different so the living person won't look nothing like the dead person at all, they are just getting their skin tissues. People get organ transplants every day.
