A century ago it was wounded soldiers, rather than celebrities, getting the latest plastic surgery. The First World War saw a huge rise in the number of drastic facial injuries. Surgeon Harold Gillies developed a new method of facial reconstructive surgery in 1917. His work marked the dawn of plastic surgery as we know it today.

I think there was a stuff you should know podcast about this. Apparently the main rule of the manufacturer’s and fitters when dealing with clients was no matter what, you maintain eye contact with the man while he was in the room. Treat him like a human being and not a freak.

Jack is John Huston's grandson, by the way.
