These women, as well as women Dr. Neuhann-Lorenz
has operated, can now laugh again.

Surgeon helps after fire assassination attempts

A new face
for victims of violence
"Every hour a woman in India falls victim to an attempted burning", says Ms. Neuhann-Lorenz, a plastic surgeon from Munich and co-founder of the organization WomenforWomen. "We can at least give them back some human countenance." Ms. Neuhann-Lorenz created WomenforWomen in order to help survivors. The organization has been helping women and girls who are victims of violence together with other plastic surgeons since 2008. More than 400 patients have been operated on in India, Bangladesh and Kenya. The surgeries aim to ensure at least the minimal functionality of the mouth, throat and nose.
