FACE SWAP! NEXT ON FOX

Does anyone remember the 1997 Nicolas Cage/ John Travolta film Face off?
Where an avant-garde surgeon swaps the face of the "bad guy" Nicolas Cage for "good guy" police officer John Travolta. After the surgery all chaos ensues because well how can we tell them apart?

Travolta's family is placed within a state of turmoil because well check it, daddy just aint daddy anymore. Anways there reason why I brought this up is because well the surgery finally happened in the place i call the "real world". Ohio, i place i often associate with as being lil Somalia and well where the Rock n Roll Hall of fame. The United States had their first face transplant yesterday and no it was not for vain cosmetic reasons. The women who the surgery was performed on experienced the douche-baggary of others, when her husband shot her in the face. In this modern world we sure find interesting ways to say I love you. Anywho, they transfered 80% of a dead womens face onto this womens face. "
Ms Culp's injuries had left her without bone support and unable to eat and breathe without a tube in her windpipe. Eleven surgeons performed the 22-hour operation, which leaves her able her to perform normal functions now.Surgeons had to incorporate muscles, nerves, skin and blood vessels from a woman who had recently died."

Sorry I had to include a photograph just to show you how insane the transformation is. I am always amazed by thinking also how this surgery will develop and perhaps become perfected.
Like always, Les Francaises were ahead of the game and performed the worlds first face transplant surgery three years ago on a women who had be mauled by her dog.
What is crazy about this operation is that, the new face morphs based on the fact that it forms around the already existent muscle structure and tissues.
But some experts warn of possible psychological side-effects which may include remorse, disappointment, or grief and guilt towards the donor.
So this means that Face Off, well is quite impossible. Unless Mr.Cage and Mr.Travollta have exactly the same facial structure. Who knows maybe the dudes hit up the same Plastic Surgeon. Hollywood, a place where not only do you share plastic surgeons but you also share wives.
