‘My surgeon saved my smile with new hologram technology’
When Susannah Morgan learned that an operation to remove a benign tumour in her neck could leave her with a crooked smile she was “frantic”.
The 45-year-old was advised to have it removed in case it turned cancerous but she was warned the surgery would also leave her with a dent in her neck and possible paralysis.
Desperate to avoid being permanently disfigured, she researched alternatives and discovered a new technique using a hologram which could save her smile.
Last month the mother-of-one, from Edinburgh, became the first person to undergo the pioneering operation in Scotland.
