Lying on her hospital bed, Roona Begum almost looks likes any other two-year-old.
But her appearance today is a drastic transformation to how the toddler looked just a few months ago after her head swelled to twice its size.
These dramatic series of images chart her journey which has seen her undergo numerous operations on her skull.
Doctors carried out her latest reconstructive surgery on Friday and the results are clear to see in these pictures taken of Roona at a hospital in New Delhi, India, on Christmas Day.

Life saving operations: Roona, pictured with her mother Fatima Begum, will still have a larger than average head but she will be able to live a normal life
Roona, who lives with her impoverished parents in a village in India's remote northeast, was born with hydrocephalus, a potentially fatal condition that causes cerebrospinal fluid to build up on the brain.

She was admitted to the hospital in April and underwent several rounds of surgery in May and June when doctors drained excess fluid from her head and dramatically reduced the size of her skull to 58 centimetres.
She spent 105 days in total at the hospital before being discharged in August.
But she returned to the same hospital earlier this month to have part of her bone removed from her skull which was then rebuilt.

JUNE: Doctors reshape Roona's skull after water on her brain which caused her skull to balloon - called hydrocephalus - had been drained leaving her disfigured
'We are trying to reduce the bulk and the weight of the head so her neck muscles can become stronger,' neurosurgeon Sandeep Vaishya told AFP after completing the latest surgery.
She will likely have to undergo another procedure early next month to compress her head further.
Although Roona's skull is likely to remain large, she has a good chance of developing normally, provided her neck muscles can grow strong enough to support her head, doctors have said.
MAY: The toddler's head has been reduced from 37ins to around 21ins through a series of life-saving surgeries

Global attention: Images showing Roona's plight, such as this one, attracted international sympathy
貧しい家庭で生まれ上に奇病！・・・多くの方々の支援で手術の運びとなり、数度の手術、最後の手術も成功裏となり，・・・めでたく、Ｘマスの日に他の幼児と殆ど変わらぬ姿をみせた。
何事にも勝る最上のＸマスの贈り物だった！と言えるでしょう。
ただ姿が見えないだけで、サンタは確かに存在します！！！・・・。
ロゥーナちゃんが健やかに成長して幸せな人生を送る事を祈ります！。
