Lol, what a coincedence. One of my new friends actually did a project on this. He used Tensor Algebra and Differential Geometry to create meshes based on images of faces. It is correct that his project requires an immense amount of mathematics, and he is extremely brilliant in mathematics. He won big at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair recently. He has a paper on what he did... maybe it will be of interest to you? I'll try to find it.

Hey, I'm interested too :)

I've got a paper (forgot who authored it though) on this type of approach applied to brain models and MRI registration problem. I could hunt for it if anyone is particularly interested.
