Session Overview

Facial reconstruction is an effective forensic technique that can help to recreate a victim’s facial appearance from the skull sufficiently accurately to achieve identification. A combination of both scientific methods and artistic skills can be used to this end in forensic investigations where conventional identification techniques are not useful and few clues are available.
