Searching for that perfect look this fall? With convenient locations in Tokyo’s trendy Omotesando and the vibrant Yokohama, discover your true beauty at Akai Medical Clinic, with discreet, effective treatments to suit any look. The Omotesando clinic specializes in basic cosmetic surgeries, including eyelid surgery, nasal reshaping, face-lifting, breast surgeries (augmentation, lift, reduction, and reconstruction), liposuction, and skin treatments with various methods. The Yokohama clinic specializes in high-quality skincare treatments.
Owned and operated by the renowned, board-certified plastic surgeons Dr. Hidemi Akai and Dr. Keiko Akai, the Akai Medical Clinic has long been revered by patients for its world-class standards and outstanding results. Dr. Hidemi Akai was trained at Harvard Medical School and the prestigious Massachusetts General Hospital, and is currently an associate professor in the Department of Plastic Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery at Showa University in Tokyo. Dr. Keiko Akai is a skincare specialist and dermatologist.
Employing over 10 different types of the latest machinery, the doctors at Akai provide treatments in Botox, fillers, laser, IPL, RF, Plasma, HIFU, age spots/stains/discolorations, tattoo removal, laser hair removal, and cellulite treatments.
Using fat and stem cell injections and/or Platelet Rich Fibrin Matrix (PRFM) injections, Akai also specialize in the “Vampire Lift,” designed to eliminate wrinkles and sagging, and create a natural-looking, youthful effect. Using the latest technology, the procedure harvests, processes, and/or delivers platelets from your blood and uses them as a filler, allowing for the overall quality of your skin to improve and regain its natural elasticity. PureGraft® is used to prepare fat and stem cells by removing unwanted contaminants from the tissue taken, resulting in a highly purified graft. The treatment is effective for high survival rates, and long-lasting results in breast augmentation and facial regeneration and rejuvenation (non-surgical face-lifting), and is scientifically proven to provide more reliable results than conventional techniques. It’s all performed within a quick session in a safe and sterile environment.
The doctors at Akai are also on the forefront of treatments in Ultrasonic Treatment in Medical Systems (UTIMS)—the first in Japan—which is perfect for no-downtime facelifts. HIFU is a non-surgical, non-invasive treatment that uses the thermal effect—meaning heat, which rises up to between 70 and 80 degrees Celsius—to perform lifts, fatty tissue, and skin tightening (with simultaneous rejuvenation), and non-invasive face-lifting.
Celution® has finally arrived in Japan, and Akai are on the cutting edge. Using stem cells derived from adipose tissue cells, Celution® is perfect in its variety of clinically proven safe procedures. Options include treatments aimed at face rejuvenation, breast augmentation, hand rejuvenation, vulvar and vaginal rejuvenation, AGA, female hair loss, and osteoarthritis.
Akai understand that the effects of aging and illness can lead to devastating visible outcomes on the body. Using Hydrogen Drip procedures, Akai harness the highly-advanced power of hydrogen molecules—the smallest molecules—for prevention of the effects of aging, as well as side-effects from cancer or diabetes. This is the latest in intravenous nutrient therapy, changing bad oxidants in the body into harmless “water.” The treatment is also highly effective at adding other antioxidant infusion therapies—such as high-concentration vitamin C, glutathione, and Myers’ Cocktail—to the hydrogen infusion.
