I personally thought it would be cool, if Ishmael was actually your playable MGO-character that you get to mold yourself in the beginning of the single player game and the Ishmael we've seen so far would be just sort of blank-slate-version of the said character with his covered face, similar voice to the single player's protagonist and so forth. The facial surgery thing could also work as an explanation of you shaping the looks of said character.
