Facing Trauma

Image 1 / 10

Dr. Andrew Jacono is a world-class facial reconstruction surgeon whose passion is fixing the faces of women who've been traumatized by domestic violence. 
The stories are heartbreaking.  Having survived harrowing, near-death experiences, these victims are left with physical and emotional scars that make it seemingly impossible to lead a normal life. 
Dr. Jacono provides hope.
 Part case study, part verite journey, Facing Trauma chronicles patients before and after treatment, recreating the singular moment that changed their lives forever, tracing that impact, and moving forward through surgery and recovery.   We'll hear their personal stories, experience their present day fears and come to understand the challenges of moving on and starting over. 
Every face will have a story to tell.
