I asked the UK CAA this question once (some years ago I must admit), and the answer was that like laser surgery this procedure leads to an automatic suspension of your medical for 12 months.
After these 12 months you 'might' get it back, but no guarantees.
Needless to say I didn't take the risk (apart from the fact I couldn't do without a medical for 12 months).
