VIENNA, Austria -- Viktor Yushchenko’s face will return to its normal looks within a few months. This was stated by Dr. Mykola Korpan, who had been treating V. Yushchenko in the Austrian clinics “Rudolfinerhaus”, today in his interview to the newspaper “ Ukraina Moloda” (Young Ukraine).

Dr. Korpan says that Yushchenko is completely healthy, and nothing threatens his either psychological or physical well-being.

The doctor said that October and November were two most difficult months in Viktor Yushchenko’s life. “Now this peak in his illness is over. V. Yushchenko was fully controlled and in a good health already during the 2nd round of the elections (on November 21). Then we confidently stated that based on the results of the analyses of his blood, urine, organs, his physical, psychological and somatic health was very good.

To the question whether the face of Viktor Yushchenko will return back to normal, Mykola Korpan asnwered that “the skin changes on the face, the changes in hypodermic adipose tissue, and changes in adipose glands are caused by dioxin, that binds to these adipose cells and enters adipose glands, accumulates there, and then such ‘pits’ are formed. Earlier it was believed that 2, 3 or 7 years are needed for skin to return back to normal. However, with modern technologies, a few months will be enough. The only problem is that some traces will remain; however, they will disappear with time, and the face restoration will be almost complete”, the doctor assured.
