PHOTOS: Boy Born With No Nose, Eyes And Jaw Shows His New Face

A four-year-old boy, who was born without eyes, nose and upper jaw, has finally undergone reconstructive surgery and showed his new face.

Yahya El Jabaly’s deformation was caused by complications during his mother’s pregnancy, his bones just stopped accreting, leaving him with the hole in the middle of the face. Although embracing love of his parents helped him to grow into a cheerful and healthy toddler, the boy was  treated like a freak in his little village in Morocco.

Fortunately, after Yahya’s story became viral on Facebook, a compassionate woman from Australia, Fatima Baraka, contacted the boy’s parents and arranged a meeting with a talented doctor who agreed to give him a chance for a new life. It took almost a year to prepare the child for the surgery and assemble a team of high-professional doctors.
