I’m Unno, one of the staff members.
This is about a friend of mine, but apparently thread lifts helped improve sagging and similar concerns! That said, it’s probably best to consult a professional, so it might be worth asking at a cosmetic dermatology clinic…!
- I get photofacials with the latest Stella machine to maintain healthy, glowing skin.
- I had a non-dissolvable thread lift to make my face look smaller—and it worked.
- HIFU wasn’t very effective for me. Maybe I was still too young for it, or I simply didn’t have enough facial fat.
- Whitening IV drips are great for recovering after being out in the sun at resorts and so on.
- Masseter Botox made my face look slimmer.
Those are some of the treatments I’ve tried.
If I start developing wrinkles in the future, I’m thinking of getting Botox.
I was thinking about getting a thread lift, but I don’t love the idea of the threads dissolving, and I don’t want my eyes to end up looking more upturned either…
I’ve tried things like chemical peels and Dermapen treatments (I switch up the solutions regularly), but I really hate having acne-prone skin and just want beautiful skin(´；ω；｀)
Smaller, non-chain clinics tend to be more skilled♪
We learned in school that most of the nutrients from beauty IV drips are basically excreted in your urine! Our head nurse told us that.
I’ve never been to a cosmetic dermatology clinic…
So Mac and Makeotoko, you both get cosmetic treatments, huh?
Maybe I’m just not doing enough.
I’ve been thinking about getting a thread lift, but you’re right—the effects of dissolvable threads eventually wear off…
I wonder if there are any clinics that offer thread lifts using non-dissolvable threads?
I’ve been getting age spots treated at a cosmetic dermatology clinic—on my face, arms, and around my shoulders. It cost about ¥600,000 in total.
Women find age spots on older men pretty off-putting, after all. I think getting a papa’s age spots treated is a must. Lately, I’ve also been considering a transconjunctival lower-eyelid procedure, so I’m debating whether to go under the knife.
Speaking of which, I heard about an incident last month where a locum doctor at a major cosmetic clinic injected hyaluronic acid into a woman’s forehead, causing an embolism and putting her at risk of blindness.
Also, a certain famous ophthalmologist got dragged on Twitter for getting into cosmetic IV drips. People in the medical community criticized him, saying things like, “An ophthalmologist shouldn’t be dabbling in cosmetic treatments,” and “It’s outrageous to offer pointless procedures.”
Since you asked about cosmetic dermatology, I’ll answer: I do full-body medical hair removal. Nothing is more off-putting than a completely hairy older guy, after all. I even have my VIO done without anesthesia.
I know several skilled cosmetic dermatologists (board-certified dermatologists) and cosmetic surgeons (board-certified plastic surgeons). So if one of my monthly arrangement partners asks, “What do you think about getting HIFU?” I’ll either ask a specialist and pass along the answer, or arrange a meal with the doctor, me, and my monthly partner so they can get a consultation.
That said, before considering cosmetic dermatology, you should improve your diet, do strength training and running, and get your body healthy from the inside out.
