Celeb hairstylist Ken Paves says he is healing up days after a photographer struck him in the face with a camera.

"I appreciate everyone who has expressed concern after the incident which occurred outside of Madeo restaurant [in L.A.] Saturday evening," he tells Usmagazine.com in a statement.

"While I did not expect a dinner out with friends would end up with me in the emergency room and nine stitches in my head, I am fine," he adds.

Paves was hit, apparently by accident, over the weekend while trying to protect Jessica Simpson from photographers. She later rushed him to L.A.'s Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

"My only real concern on Saturday night, and it remains so in retrospect, was for the safety of my friend and all concerned," says Paves.

He adds, "I understand everyone has a job to do, including paparazzi. If I were to say anything about Saturday night, it is only to encourage that everyone would respect and care for the safety of others above all else.
