Face transplants A face transplant is a still-experimental procedure to replace all or part of a person's face. People with faces disfigured by burns, trauma, disease or birth defects might benefit from the procedure. The alternative to a face transplant is to move the patient's own skin from their back, buttocks or thighs to their face in a series of as many as 50 operations to regain even limited function and a face that is often likened to a mask or a living quilt. Dr. L. Scott Levin, chief of plastic and reconstructive surgery at the Duke University Medical Center, has described the procedure as "the single most important area of reconstructive research."
