They grew a real nose on a woman’s arm to transfer it on her face. The real magic of technology

Technology is growing and improving day by day. We hear about inventions and discoveries, that are sometimes even hard to believe. Technology is closely connected with medicine and they do wonders together. We want to tell you about one of that wonders. Let’s get started!

Everything started with a story of a woman from France who lost the large part of her face because of the illness she had gone through. Doctors found the magical solution for it. They grew a nose on a patient’s arm and transplanted it to her face. That is the amazing feat of technology we were talking about.

The woman was treated for nasal cavity cancer with radiotherapy and chemotherapy in 2013. And that was the reason she lost part of her nose. For years she lived like that, and dreamed about finding a solution, and she found it.

The nose was made from 3D-printed biomaterial. It then was implanted on her forearm and changed her life forever. There are some secrets and unclear things for ordinary people to understand how all of this process was done, the woman grew her nose on her arm and then had it on her face. Sounds like something magical, but that is what was done.

We are sure that doctors will keep surprising us more with this kind of unimaginable wonders in the future, and make people’s quality of life grow. Thanks to that genius doctors, one more person is happy in this world. Thank you for reading and being with us!
