For the first time, we’re seeing Charla Nash’s new face -- she’s the woman who was brutally attacked by her friend’s chimpanzee two years ago and lost most of her face, but underwent a revolutionary face transplant three months ago.

“I’m beginning to feel my jaw and chin. And I can move my mouth and smile,” Nash told the Today show. “I still feel weak...but little by little I’m getting stronger.”

The progress and recovery of Nash’s face transplant is remarkable and it took a team of more than 30 surgeons and nurses nearly 20 hours at a hospital in Boston to rebuild her face.

“New hope has been sparked. It’s just so nice to see her ready to get at it again,” Nash’s 17-year-old daughter Brianna said. “For her to make an expression...it’s just nice that her body language can express how she feels.”
