As someone who lost their face, lived for a time without one, and then received a new one, do you see your outward appearance as part of your internal identity?

Is what you see in the mirror "who you are," or just a mask being worn by the person inside?

Many peoples' entire concept of self is based on their external appearance, so I'm curious as to whether experiencing such a dramatic change to your outer shell caused you to reevaluate how you think of yourself internally.

I would be very curious to see that image. The only faceless people I've seen were victims of torture, so they were essentially just bleeding skulls that could breathe.

It would be really interesting, from a medical standpoint, to see the difference that healing makes in the overall appearance of a faceless skull.

Edit: To clarify, I haven't carved anyone's face off, I was doing research on drug cartels, and turns out they're sociopaths who like to cut off people's faces to 80's pop music and upload the videos to YouTube.

That's because after walking a long and terrible road, they see someone who can still be helped about to do the same, and want to stop it.

What's wrong with men who've lived a dangerous- often glorified- criminal lifestyle, feeling compelled to warn youth away from it?

Hahah, your username...
