Brazil cancer survivor rejoices at new face
A Brazilian woman who lost an eye and part of her jaw to cancer is getting a new face thanks to a digitally engineered prosthesis.
Denise Vicentin developed a facial tumour 30 years ago. It was removed twice, but it returned in a malignant form two decades later.
Researchers at Paulista University in São Paulo use a low-cost method to make facial prostheses. They say it requires none of the expensive equipment used in conventional techniques - only a computer and a smartphone.
