3D printer rebuilds face
Print Edition
A British man who suffered horrific facial injuries in a motorbike accident has had pioneering surgery to rebuild his face using 3D printed parts.
Stephen Power from Cardiff in Wales is thought to be one of the first trauma patients in the world to have a procedure in which 3D printing was used at every stage.
The 29-year-old suffered multiple trauma injuries in an accident in 2012.
Surgeons said that by using 3D printing techniques, much of the guesswork was removed from the reconstruction of the face.
The result is a face that is remarkably similar to Power’s before the accident. Power said the results were “totally life-changing.”
