The operation was conducted at Barcelona's Vall d'Hebron University Hospital on a young man who was injured in an accident five years ago.
Ever since the accident, the man was unable to breathe, swallow or speak properly. He completely survived on artificial equipments.
In the 24 hour operation, the man received new facial muscles, skin, nose, lips, jaw, teeth, palate and cheekbones.
