By all means, if it's a consultation then it's fairly low stake and seems like a sensible course of action. Just remember that what works for one person might not for another. Though Dr Khan has produced some truly amazing results in his time, my question would be how long lasting are they?

You will be spending a lot of money.

Good luck.

Thanks.

I have booked a consultation with the option of having Recell procedure the next day. Yes it is a lot of money.

I'd suggest documenting your project, not just for your own benefit, but also for us. If you take pictures, try to keep the lighting consistent (always in a windowless room with an unchanging light level).

Yes I will. September is still a long wait.

I'll take some picture's in the same daylight when the time come's.

Well, I'd avoid daylight because of how dependent it is on uncontrollable variables, weather and time being the biggest.

Yes I'll make sure it is around the same weather, time / light. I could also use the bathroom light.

Went to my dermatologist yesterday, he has wrote a letter for my health insurence company to pay the Recell treatment. If it does get covered by the health insurence it would be great news.

I have private health insurance but haven't considered approaching them regarding treatment. It may be worth it, nothing to lose after all. Let us know if you do get it covered!

As long as you don't hint that it's purely for cosmetic reasons and that it is having a psychological impact on you (perhaps have some 'proof') etc...

Edit: I know it's never for merely cosmetic reasons but that's how they might interpret it. You need a strong case.

Yes I was thinking about backing it up with my medical report, because I have been seeing a psychologist for (social) anxiety and depression in the past. I have a appointment in May with a psychologist and will be sure to ask him.

The scarring in my face isn't that bad anymore and so also the stress and anxiety is less, I have already used dermarolling and TCA to get the scarring more to the surface. I also have moderate scarring on my body so I might ask for a test on those scars just to see if it has effect.

You could also give it a try and start by seeing a dermatologist for scar treatment, that backs up that treatment has been tried with some effect and that Recell and laser is now necessary. Ask the health insurence for specialised medical care abroad, with Dr. Khan being a well known specialist in scar treatment. Then maybe a psychologist that can support you with a letter stating that you are suffering from emotional problems and depression because of scarring. That is has had great impact on your quality of life. (which is true with in most cases) Another smart move is to go for a expensive health insurence for a year and switch back after treatment.

Still it's on the health insurence company to pay, it would be great if it had become a more worldwide known treatment, as far as I know it has been FDA approved for testing.

I found harley street to be over priced and there staff in particular Andrew butcher to be a total jerk. Harley streets price was also almost double what i ended up paying at another clinic in nottingham. I travelled from the usa.

Pricing is subjective but I agree about his staff. They are not doing him any favours. I sent him a PM months ago about it when I was inquiring about treatment but he chose to ignore it so....I went elsewhere. Dr Khan on the otherhand was very informative and knowledgable. Maybe just a "Harley street" syndrome.

Don't EVER see Dr. Aamer Khan. His smartxide laser has left me with permanent post-inflammatory pigmentation. He has also been found guilty of misconduct by the General Medical Council recently.

Many treatments with him, consults with others like Dr Khan, if you don't want to waste your time and money looking around (like i and many have done before) just get on and see Dr Chu

I don't think he will be treating much longer, he must be due to retire soon
