When I first saw this picture I was skeptical. When I read the story I was still skeptical. However, after doing some cross-checking I found out that this Chinese man really does have a nose growing on his forehead and the story behind it is incredible!

The man, Xiaolian, 22, was injured in a car accident and, according to the New York Daily News, failed to seek medical help when his nose developed an infection. He was then face with the prospect of losing the nose completely until doctors came up with an idea.

But surgeons in a hospital in Fuzhou, Fujian province, placed a skin tissue expander on Xiaolian's forehead, shaping a new nose using cartilage taken from his ribs.The new nose is in good shape, according to local media reports, and will soon be transplanted to the correct place.
