- NYU Langone Health patient and myFace Star, Cameron, had a face transplant in January, under the leadership of Dr. Eduardo D Rodriguez, MD, DDS.
myFace supported Cameron throughout this journey by providing travel and housing for his many trips back and forth between CA and NYC and more than 150 nights of free housing for him and his family while on extensive stays in NYC for pre-surgery, surgery, recovery and follow-up. myFace also supported his rehabilitation, including speech therapy, orthodontics treatment, nutrition counseling and psychological support services.
Cameron and his brother Aaron, shared some of their experiences and what myFace meant to them.
I hope he's doing well mentally also. Stay strong cam!!
he looks so sweet. bless his heart. :)
I’m glad this man got a second chance. Good luck man.
Yeah kiss my ass a second chance. Just look at the way he talks and blinks his eye. Nothing can replace your features. Beside, he has to take Anti-rejection drugs for the rest of his life which leads to infections and other complications. I don't know it's not my business and I don't know what he has been through if it's really worth it. If I ever decide to commit suicide, I would make sure that I don't come back cause in that case, death is way better than living
He actually looks almost just as he did it is incredible how Dr's come along to improve a person quality of life
Stay happy and blessed my brother
Cameron, you look absolutely amazing! What a blessing this is for you and you family. Best wishes for your continued good health!
What an inspiring story! I love how he explained that having the support of his family made a big difference for him. Connection is a key part of building resilience, and this young man is an amazing example. Best of luck to Cameron!
Cameron is a very very brave man and if he feels better and happier and his quality of life is better then that,s what matters! I take my hat of to u Cameron for all you have been through and for how brave and strong you have been!
Handsome with the old face and also handsome with the new face ❤️
Cameron. You look amazing and you are so brave with everything you have been through ❤
I just really want to hug him! His eyes are absolutely beautiful, too. 😍
He looks great. The surgeons are getting better and better at reconstructing faces with transplants.
Incredible and he looks awesome!!
Live long and prosper dude!! We're behind you 100%!!!
Happy for you! As time goes on, will your facial muscles get stronger, allowing your speech to get stronger? Just curious. I have no problem understanding a word you’re saying; but it would be great to gain unlimtrd improvement. Have an awesome life and feel the love out here for you!
Yess it does. He’s doing even better now and in due time it will fully regain function and expression. It can take years for even the swelling to fully go down
Depends. The nerves have to be properly connected up by the Drs and his body has to figure out how to strengthen those new nerve connections up- though nerves are very hard to regrow. He may not gain full movement.
what everyone else is saying but also, he was used to speaking with his deformed face for 2 years, he had to relearn how to talk with an average face
He looks amazing..God bless you Cameron 🙏
Handsome guy. Stay strong Cameron.
Sweetie I am soooo proud of you…..your attitude and determination is amazing xxxx

Thinking of you in the Yorkshire Dales Uk
He looks great! God bless him.
Dude had his face blown off. Had one of the most complicated and risky surgeries imaginable with a face transplant and he came out more handsome than I ever was. I want a face transplant too.
God Bless you!!!
shit it’s crazy how far technology has come. that was someone else’s face(rip)and with the exception of a few areas, it looks natural.
WOW , you look so great now! Bravo ❤️❤️❤️
That's great
amazing WOW
You are looking great!!
Crying 🥺😭
God Bless you
Great story bro. Just don't ever pull the trigger again. Keep your head up man.
AMAZING
GOD BLESS
It’s crazy how all transplant patients all talk the same!!
i hope he has 100% control of the transplant
Right on Cameron looks awesome total rocker .... Rock on w your bad ass self !!!!
You still so beautiful 🤗
great surgeon .. fine looking guy...
Dude you look great.
A mazing!!!!!!
And here we are in 2021 being forced to all wear a mask. You look great, and your attitude is even greater. All the best.
all with a IQ over 45 loves to wear a mask to keep everyone safe. All the best.
@@alexanderl9985 you must have an IQ of 45 if u think masks "keep ppl safe", safe from what? The common cold? How do I keep myself safe from authority loving sheep giving in to totalitarian rule and throwing away everyone's basic human rights?
@@maggotmeatballz2692 how can wearing a mask violate your rights..Wearing mask reduces the chance of being affected by the virus.Why do you guys make a big deal of it...I still can't understand.You guys get offended even for these small things.
being FORCED to wear masks????? omg you literally don't care about the amount of people dying every single day all over the world because of the v1rus do you??? omfg
@@melcanal7410 lmfao you dumb ass
"It's grown on me."
Yes it has!
Que el Señor te bendiga mucho💟
Right.
Before I saw the title I saw the thumbnail and my brain immediately thought "whoa hang on there is something fishy about that face" it was weird, like I got uncanny valley vibes from it.
Then I read the title and was like oooooooooh okay. Actually that doesn't look half bad then.
Cameron 👍👐✋✊ from Poland. .......
God Bless Cameron god is on his side Amen. 😊😅👍
God love him🥰
God bless sweet face
He looks like my local winder cleaner Alan....
Can someone educate me as to why he speaks like that? Like it looks like he doesn't have much autonomy or control over his facial muscles.
he look like post malone
I read the caption as Carrie Underwood.
That's your problem not his. Also what what does it matter?
at first, it looks like raze cosplay
I think it's amazing his beard belongs to someone else
What beard??
😭😭😭😭😭😭
Why did a attempt suicide get this and not a US veteran who lost their face in war?
Yikes! Glad you got a new face but how hard it must be to deal with this on top of all the other problems you thought were unbearable before.
At least he's survivinh, amen.
Surviving*
Troll. He didnt realize what he had before. It's a lesson to us all. Be safe.
🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
🦘
The 80's called and they want their face back.
Will he ever regain the ability to talk normal in a couple years?
That’s crazy but did I ask
No está lindo, pero pa lo que estaba...
Most transplant people sound like this..why
I'm amazed how well he speaks without using his lips. He could be a ventriloquist:)
Some people lose all or part of their tongue when they lose their face. That will impact speech even with a transplant. Cameron's tongue remained intact, though. I'm sure he'll have speech therapy in the future.
Probably partly damaged nerves because of the suicide attempt and also the limited control over the face transplant.
Good God this is terrifying
It is the best face transplant I have ever seen though.
This dude became stronger, if I was him I would try to kill myself again.
I hope this guy refuses to wear masks now. He's earned it.
@@quackityquack1 Lmao shut up
Cameron, your transplant looks amazing! Having said that, you would be far more handsome if you'd lose that ugly long hair and even uglier mustache. You need either on that great looking face.
What the.... Wasnt that a little too..... *harsh and rude??...*
@@jannetkendiya5515 yeah it sounds kinda like they're insulting them
