Skin Care and Laser Treatment
Skin Care with Retin-A, Obagi
Among many skin care items available, Retin-A is still the gold standard to treat various skin conditions. Retin-A removes old skin first, then rejuvenates the underlying skin layers, bringing baby skin like complexity. For those with brown spots, acne, and prominent skin pores, we recommend a combination of Retin-A with Obagi's Nu-Derm system. This allows not only skin to rejuvenate but also removes unwanted brown spots and shrinks the skins pores.
Other skin care products are also available and the specialist will discuss the best treatment for you among many medications/cosmetics in the market.
Retin-A from ¥9450. Obagi kit ¥52,290. |

State of Art Laser: IPL, Titan XL, Laser Genesis, and Long-Pulse YAG laser
For blemishes and fine wrinkles of the skin, IPL/Photofacial laser may be applied (the first 3 pictures below).
The U.S. company, Cutera invented "Titan XL " -- the state of art laser machine to deliver infrared energy to the medium to deep under skin tissue, resulting in tightening of those tissue. The final results are improvements in the sagging skin, loose skin, and lifting effects. These are said to be comparable to surgical lifting. Unlike the uncomfortable experience (pain) of "Thermacool", the Titan gives only minimal discomfort (but big gain)(the Titan XL is the newest version of Cutera's Titan laser - it has 3 times larger treatment head than the previous version Titan V). Titan XL - from ¥31,500.
The same machine also has a few more different functions including well known Laser Genesis that treats the superficial layers of the skin and also tighten the skin, reduce the redness and skin pores. It also diminishes the Rosacea and other vascular conditions. These devices are imported from the U.S., and available at our medical facility. Laser Genesis - from ¥21,000.
Lastly, the Long-pulse YAG laser treats Rosecea and small vascular lesions without burns and scars.
