Doctors said a face transplant would help restore Joe to how he looked before. It didn’t. But a face does not define success. Success is getting up anyway. Success is choosing to keep going. Joe’s success is built on resilience, ambition, and pushing forward after an outcome he never deserved. | Dimeo Joe

He had a face and double hand transplant. 1. Joe received a face and bilateral hand transplant at 21 years old after a catastrophic accident caused severe burns to most of his body. 2. The transplant was not cosmetic. It was life saving and required one of the most complex surgeries ever performed. 3. Joe lives with lifelong immunosuppression, frequent hospitalizations, and constant monitoring to prevent rejection and infection. 4. Transplant is not a finish line. It is daily work relearning mov

Questions with Joe. Another reason is Joe’s transplant included two arms and a full face transplant, not partial, so it is more extensive than other face transplant recipients. Joe is watched after closely 🤍 | Dimeo Joe

We’re at a point in this journey where we can no longer glorify Joe’s situation. The truth is, it’s caused Joe more pain than peace at times. Constant hospital admissions, unbearable pain, and a system that feels like it can move on, while we’re still here, fighting every day. We’re tired. And we’re allowed to say that. This is our reality. If you’re going through something hard, please know you’re not alone. | Dimeo Joe

NJ man gets new face and hands from complex transplant after car crash

Questions with Joe:Yes, Joe’s transplant will always be at risk for infection, and he will always be sensitive to the sun. Last year, a small cut on his neck became infected and, after being worsened by sun exposure, landed him in the hospital for a month and a half. Sun and infection risk are lifelong concerns for transplant patients, and for Joe, they’re part of daily life. | Dimeo Joe

Doctors said the face transplant would make him look like his old self. It didn’t. He battled chronic rejection. More hospital stays. More setbacks than anyone deserved. His face changed. His drive didn’t. Success isn’t restoration. It’s resilience. A face doesn’t define a man. Character does. 80 Percent Gone. 100 Percent Strong. | Dimeo Joe

Joe’s transplant didn’t just happen overnight. After surviving burns to 80% of his body in July 2018, he spent over two years recovering before undergoing the world’s first successful face and double hand transplant in August 2020.Before he could be approved, Joe went through intensive screening that lasted a full year. This included physical endurance tests, psychological evaluations, immunological matching, organ function assessments, and infectious disease screenings. Every part of his body a

Looking for ways to manage pain after a transplant can feel overwhelming. When Joe’s transplant surgeon suggested acupuncture, I was surprised. I never imagined they would want anything touching his transplanted hands or face, but here we are. Joe has been using acupuncture along with seeing a pain specialist to help with the intense pain in his hands. Ironically his face has no pain at all. It is all in his hands. You cannot always see pain but with Joe you can. His hands are raw with open cuts
