The man who underwent the world's first face and double hand transplant has told of his horrific car accident where he suffered third-degree burns across 80 per cent of his body when he crashed in July 2018.
Joe DiMeo, from Clark, New Jersey, underwent 20 reconstructive plastic surgeries and a skin graft before spending 23 hours in August 2020 having the pioneering surgery.
Joe's face was donated by a stroke victim who died at 48.
