As a result of this, the surgeons had no choice than to create a new nose for Xiaolian on his forehead to transplant it in place of his damaged nose. The procedure was carried out at a Hospital in Fuzhou, Fujian, China. This was done by placing a skin tissue expander onto Xiaolian's forehead and was cut into the shape of a nose which was supported by a cartilage taken from Xiaolian's ribs.
