FACE TRANSPLANT: Man receives new face and hands

Man receives new face and hands

Sky News has caught up with Joe DiMeo who has become one of the few people in the world to receive a face and hands transplant including forehead, eyebrows, nose, eyelids, lips, and ears.

The 22 year old was badly burned in a car crash in July 2018 after falling asleep at the wheel following a night shift at work.

Looking to the future, Joe told us he really wants to start driving again.
