Before you book

What you need to know

Important information

  • Microneedling and laser cause redness, mild swelling and sometimes flaking for a few days. Infection and pigment change are uncommon but possible.
  • Treated skin is more sensitive to sunlight. Sun protection between sessions is part of the treatment, not an optional extra.
  • All treatments on this page are self-pay (自由診療). Japanese national health insurance does not apply, and the full amount is charged at the clinic.
  • Prices shown include consumption tax and are the prices at the time of writing. They can change without notice — the price confirmed at your consultation is the one that applies.
  • Any medicine can cause side effects. A doctor reviews your history and current medication before prescribing, and will decline to prescribe where it is not safe to do so.

Coming as an English speaker

You can be seen here without speaking Japanese. Consultations are handled with a translation app and written notes rather than by an English-speaking doctor, which works well for treatments where the decision is straightforward — repeat prescriptions, testing, hair removal — and is slower where you have a complicated history to explain. Treatment information, pricing and access details on these pages are in English. The booking system and the pre-visit questionnaire are in Japanese, so message us on LINE beforehand if you would like help completing them.

FAQ

Common questions

What is Dermapen 4?

Microneedling: a device makes controlled micro-punctures in the skin, and the healing response rebuilds collagen. It is used for acne scarring, texture and open pores. A trial session is ¥5,000, a full session ¥18,000 including a vitamin C infusion, and a course of five ¥85,000.

What is Velvet Skin?

Dermapen combined with mesotherapy — the needling channels are used to deliver product into the skin. ¥13,000 as a trial, ¥27,000 per session, ¥125,000 for five.

Does it hurt?

Microneedling is uncomfortable rather than painful for most people. Topical anaesthetic is available at ¥9,000 if you would rather not find out.

How long is the downtime?

Expect redness resembling mild sunburn for a day or two, sometimes with flaking afterwards. Plan it around anything you need to look presentable for, and keep sun exposure down while the skin recovers.
