Xiaolian, 22, didn’t look after his badly damaged nose following a traffic accident in August, 2012.
The infection corroded the cartilage of his nose, making it impossible for surgeons to fix it.
They then decided to grow him a new one at a hospital in Fuzhou in Fujian province, China.
It was grown by placing a skin tissue expander onto Xiaolian’s forehead, cutting it into the shape of a nose and planting cartilage taken from his ribs.
The surgeons said that the new nose is in good shape and the transplant surgery could be performed soon.
