Professor Meningaud's anti-aging program
Professor Meningaud’s anti-aging program:
Immunity, Energy, Longevity, Appearance, scientifically validated techniques.
This book is aimed at those who want to regain control of their bodies in a global approach that addresses longevity, beautification and rejuvenation. Too often, these three aspects are treated separately, even though they influence each other. Taking them into account together creates an overall effect that is greater than the sum of the expected effects. This is what we call synergy.
Face transplants
The first face transplant took place in 2005.
Since then, it has fascinated as much as it has frightened. Professor Méningaud, who has already performed several face transplants in France, and Philippe Pirnay, review the current state of knowledge of this practice.
Over and above the medical and historical aspects, they address the questions (including ethical ones) that we all might ask ourselves: what exactly is transplanted in a face transplant?
Who is the donor, and what about his or her dignity? Who can be “reconstructed”?
