They show pictures of the transformation, and it's pretty spectacular.
(WARNING: THE "BEFORE" PICTURE COULD BE PRETTY GRAPHIC FOR THOSE WHO ARE SENSITIVE)

They even transplanted nerves and muscles under the skin, giving him back sensation on his face. He's also able to grow facial hair from the transplanted skin. Amazing, amazing stuff.
PS. If you can, try your hand at giving some of the others a bit of feedback. If you already have, thanks, can you do some more?
