“When Constance was told she had cancer of the mouth she thought she would be terribly disfigured…until a leading surgeon performed his miracle”
TO LOOK at Constance Searle today you would never guess that half her face has been re-built in an astonishing 12-hour operation. Surgeon Iain Hutchison removed a slice of bone five inches long and one inch thick from her shoulder blade and crafted it into a jawbone. He then used it to replace the left hand side of Constance’s cancer-ravaged face from her ear to her chin.”It is absolutely brilliant,” says Constance, 65, from Rainham, Essex.

This is largely because most people ignore these symptoms. Now a new easy-to-use mouthwash has been developed that can detect mouth cancer in its early stages.”
