Its 6000 pounds not dollars. And there is nothing impressive about Khans treatment, all he did was treat some guy who had no scarring to begin with, and then have him spread the word. The only ones who have experience doing this are in China as seen in the first few pics, and it does cost a little extra, but at least it does something.

I think there are positive results(combination treatment) but it is tooooo expensive treatment, what about BRD you said he will send photos of his patients are you still communicating with him? I am impressed to see his before and after photos.....by the way when was your last time to see BRD?

havnt the people getting this treatment from dr khan actually asked them this ... whether its just a fancy filler or actually repairs the skin. paying 6000 for a filler is kinda stupid in my opinion

I think they were well informed in that they knew it wouldn't rebuild their skin. I remember someone saying he/she felt it was worth the money, if I remember correctly. If he/she could have achieved similar results by getting other fillers or not, I'm still not sure about, however. :confused:

What clinics are doing stem cell treatment in china. Ive also heard russia has some clinics too. Do you have any links to these places. Any of them half assed trust worthy ? I would be willing to give it a shot

The pics attached on the first page are from a clinic in China, Aolousi. There are probably others experimenting with stem cells for acne scars in Asia as well.

Yeah ive seen these treatment posted in this thread. At first i was excited to see these photos. But after researching what they actually do. Well actually i just read some post of people who contacted these clinics. For the most part these stemcell therapies are simply fillers that dont get absorbed. I dont understand how it can possibly give the results show in these photos. Especially when you look at the photo of the guy with the ice pick and small boxcar scars. Those scars are very shallow. Im not sure how fat laden with stem cells is supposed to regenerate the skin so flawlessly like it is shown in the after photos. Then i remembered that there is something called a clone tool in photoshop. Are these dermatologists from china or digital artists. i dont know. Looks a little fishy.

hiya everyone,

I,ve just been reading this thread and from my experience this stem cell treatment has been the best i,ve had up to date. It seems to have repaired the damage under my skin, as some of you may be aware my cells were damaged due to a doctor going to far with a deep peel. My skin looks healthier and plumped out. As for the scars and open pores i have had 70% improvement on my box and rolling scars. I still have open pores but dr khan is going to discuss fraxel laser with me at a later date. I hope this information is helpful to you

I find this treatment that Dr.Khan is offering very frustrating. When people are speaking of improvement, what we are talking about exactly? Is it that the skin is less depressed or does the skin now look like normal non-scarred skin?

 

I'd gladly spend 10k if it would remove my scars (icepicks, boxcars), but if it's just to improve volume than I don't see it being of any use to me.

I think Khan treated only like 5 people and it seems like all 5 have been on this board.how bout that.

anyways, when did you start this treatment and when did you start noticing results?

Hello,

 

I am new to this site and I do not have much scarring. I have noticed this past breakout that I have some mild scarring but since it is pigmented I cannot really tell right now. Despite this, I have been reading up on scarring just in case this becomes a common thing and I get scarred every time I have a breakout.

 

From what I noticed in this thread, and I did stay up and read every word, people who are claiming to have had these wonderful results do not have before and after pictures so why are people so quick to believe these marvelous results. If you do not have verifiable pictures of before and after your procedures stop giving people on this site false hope. It is clear to me what is going on. The main individuals who are claiming to have these remarkable results have all but disappeared from this thread. No one noticed that? The only real pictures that were provided in the original posts do not even appear real. I am all for new and improved solutions to acne and scarring that may or may not result but it appears to me that people are giving us false hope.

 

 

I do not want to be negative but I was just sharing my thoughts on the issue. I'm new here so please take it easy on me.

There is a long thread about Dr. Khan and stem cell treatments on the first page. There are before and after photos and the poster discusses his experience with the treatment in detail. This is mostly a discussion thread, so I don't expect anyone to post their results here.

Just to let you know honeymaid, I support your position.

 

But there is a difference. I've seen what Khan's treatment accomplishes, and I don't know about everyone else, but by my standarts, those results are a joke.

That was not the original post though. The original post is from BDR and he posted before and after pictures from a clinic in Asia. Furthermore, yes this is a discussion thread but if the discussion is whether or not you get good results from a particular treatment why would it be out of the ordinary to expect verifiable before and after pictures?

Does it really make a difference what thread they post their photos in? Maybe they thought before and after photos would get lost in this thread because it's so long? Who knows? I think you're getting hung up on meaningless details. I mean, there are photos that have been posted and most of the patients who have received this treatment have come back to report that they've seen a dramatic improvement. One poster even said his scarring is gone now. I don't know if the results justify the cost, but there is proof of at least one patient's results on this forum. He is very happy and you can tell from the before and afters that there is a huge improvement.
