Pope Benedict XVI was the first German pope in 500 years. Professor Mang and his family were the first aesthetic surgeons to have a private audience in Rome with him in 2010.
Professor Mang says: I have shook hands with many celebrities from all over the world – actors, singers and politicians – but as a faithful Catholic, the conversation with the late Pope Emeritus Benedict was my greatest experience. I pray every night for Pope Benedict, my parents, my family and friends that you are well, because I firmly believe in an afterlife.
