I thought about this a little more.. considering the number of nerves and muscles in the face needed for facial expressions, talking, involuntary functions (blinking)... It must take several surgeries to connect EVERYthing. And nerve surgery HURTS.

I would be very interested in finding out HOW they do this surgery, instrument-wise...
