Scar Revision DISASTER

I was hesitant to write this review but I feel like I must as a cautionary tale for POC. Dr. Khosh is indeed very kind and does have great bedside manner, however, Dr. Khosh also ruined my face (which he explicitly knew I use to make a living). I came in with a scar on my head that was barely noticeable and wanted it revised only to be thinner. I was extremely afraid and hesitant to get it done for fear of a bad outcome i.e. a worse scar. Dr. Khosh said there would always be a scar but assured me with extreme confidence that the new revised scar he would make would look much better. I trusted him and what ensued was a traumatic experience that ended in disaster; an unsightly, very noticeably discolored, larger scar that would now require, at the very least, makeup to conceal. In the end he admitted that he had failed and actually made the scar much, much worse. Dr Khosh is very kind and has great bedside manner, but that doesn't really help when you wake up every day and look in the mirror reminded that you're literally scarred for life.

I’m so sorry! I was just on here researching scar revision and saw your story. Have you seen what they can do with medical tattooing for scar camouflage? It’s really amazing and I think it might really do the trick for you. Just wanted to mention it in case you hadn’t heard of it! Xo

Thank you! I have heard of it. Sadly the tattooing doesn't tan naturally with the skin and would look unnatural. The whole point of this procedure was to avoid having to do that. Unfortunately, the doctor really messed up and he knew it. :(

What was the procedure? Lasers?

You may want to go to a medical tattoo artist who can blend that to your skin color.
