In January 2018, Cameron Underwood underwent a remarkable 25-hour face transplant at NYU Langone Health after suffering devastating facial injuries in 2016. Led by Dr. Eduardo Rodriguez, a team of more than 100 medical professionals helped reconstruct his face, including his jaw, nose, cheeks, and teeth. The surgery gave Cameron the ability to smile, speak, and eat solid foods again. By November 2018, he was publicly sharing his recovery and thanking the donor's family for making his second chance possible. #Pubity
