Not bad at all.

But its just a weird physcological thing, looking in the mirror and you dont see your face your used to seeing all your life and you see someone else.

Just think about it.

When I read the description of what she looked like before it didn't sound so bad - I assumed she had massive damage from an accident or something, but the description sounded like just another (perhaps ugly) face. It didn't sound like a face you needed to take such extreme measures over.

Does anyone have any before pics?

from what i saw of the drawing of her before face it was slightly nasty. Think of zombie movie with a zombie with no lips and teeth showing.



"A debate over the ethics of the operation emerged, however, after it was alleged that Dinoire had her face ravaged by the dog while she was asleep after attempting suicide by consuming an excessive amount of sleeping pills, and that her donor, Maryline St. Aubert, had committed suicide by hanging. Concern was raised over Dinoire's ability to consent to the transplant, considering her mental state. Dubernard strenuously denied that Dinoire had attempted suicide, while Devauchelle insisted he would not have conducted the transplant if he knew St. Aubert had hanged herself, as he feared the blood vessels in her face would be damaged."

So let me see here:
- The woman attempts to commit suicide.
- Dog mauls her in an attempt to wake her up.
- She gets a new face from someone else who IIRC was brain-dead and had also commited suicide.
- The first thing she does with her new face is to smoke?

Do they ever reveal why she attempted to commit suicide in the first place? I honestly don't think she should've deserved it.
