While 7 face transplants have been performed around the world, to date, there remains debate regarding the validity of this procedure.

By outlining the technical and ethical boundaries of the debate, responding to the key arguments against the procedure, and describing its motivations and potential benefits, we state our justification of facial transplantation.
