The London Evening Standard reported today that Naomi Oni, a 20-year old London based Nigerian who was attacked with acid by an unknown person dressed in niqab a few minutes away from her home, will be receiving a free facial reconstruction surgery by one of the world's top cosmetic Surgeons, Dr. Cap Lesesne.
Dr. Lesesne, an American surgeon who has done re-constructive surgery as well as normal operations on hollywood actors, United States Senators, royalty, read of Naomi’s travail in the Evening Standard and decided to offer his heart- felt service.
“I have a young daughter and I was really moved by Naomi’s story. What kind of animal would do that? I’m sure Naomi’s care under the NHS has been superb. She is lucky she is in one of the best places in the world.
“I think the NHS is extraordinary and offers a very high level of care. I have good friends working in Britain. This isn’t a case of me coming in and saying I can do it better but if there is anything I can do to compliment Naomi’s care then I’d like to see if I can help.”
Ms. Oni suffered terrible burns on her face, neck, arms, legs, head and body, she is partly blind in her right eye and doctors fear she would need years of continous treatment before she is fully alright.
