AMIENS, France — The Frenchwoman who received the world’s first partial face transplant showed off her new features to the public today, saying in a heavily slurred voice that she now looks “like everyone else” and hopes to resume a normal life.
Isabelle Dinoire’s speech was difficult to understand, but she explained how she was disfigured by a dog bite last year, and she thanked the family of the donor who gave her new lips, a chin and nose.
A fine, circular scar was still visible where the face tissue was attached in the 15-hour operation in Amiens on Nov. 27.
