MUSE DERMATOLOGY & PAIN CLINIC
Muse Dermatology & Pain Clinic specializes in general and cosmetic dermatology as well as pain treatments. A clinic with English-language support as well as Chinese, Tagalog, and Korean, Muse is a spacious and comfortable clinic located only thirty minutes from the city center.
The clinic is established in Japan’s largest medical mall with 13 different departments. Clients can relax in a spacious location while receiving treatments for very competitive prices from a diverse menu of options. For instance, anti-aging drips and injection to suit your particular needs can be received for lower price than in city center clinics.
The clinic offers state-of-the-art medical lasers and infusions, especially anti-aging drips and injection. They treat complaints such as acne or acne scars, stains, redness in the face, wrinkles and sagging, and hair loss, as well as offering slimming treatments. In cosmetic dermatology, the clinic treats spots, wrinkles and sagging with natural rejuvenation and low-cost, minimally-invasive methods. The clinic also focuses on body contouring, using the latest machines, FDA-approved Coolsculpting and BTL’s Vanquish to eliminate your unwanted fat.
Muse has their own cosmetic products to support your home skin care after you receive your skin treatments. There is a distilled laboratory at the pharmacy beside the clinic to provide fresh ointments and cosmetics with the least preservatives. The products contain high-concentration placenta, hyaluronic acid and collagen from Hokkaido, Japan.
Muse Dermatology & Pain Clinic also offers anesthesia and pain treatments for chronic pain sufferers. The clinic provides specialized pain consultations, offering treatments such as narcotic therapy, hyperthermia, injection therapy, nerve block therapy and traditional alternative medicine. In addition, Muse cooperates with an Orthopedic clinic to provide specialized treatment as a personal body therapy such as muscle training with medical devices, acupuncture or shiatsu.
Muse’s director, Naoko Hitosugi MD, Ph.D., received her doctor’s degree in Anesthesiology. She has experience in emergency medicine and narcotic research from North Shore Long Island Jewish Hospital in New York. Under her direction, Muse has always ensured safe, secure and painless medical care, and is reputable in treatments, using needles and lasers with minimum pain.
For your special offer as a Metropolis reader, we highly recommend the Beautiful Skin MAX (BS-MAX), Detox injection, Myers cocktail, and Galic MAX (G-MAX). BS-MAX contains placenta and Vitamin C, L-cysteine, biotin, and tocopherol to restore your skin from sun exposure and boost it with antioxidants. The detox injection contains glycyrrhizic acid, L-cysteine, and glutathione to help your liver function for your body detoxifications and skin whitening.
For patients who suffer from general fatigue, the Myers cocktail supplies you with vitamins and minerals, especially vitamin C, vitamin B, magnesium and calcium. G-MAX is suitable for those with physical fatigue after exercising or eye strain after desk work.
For those who may feel self-conscious wearing light summer clothes, we offer two slimming options: Vanquish, to melt down your fat, and Coolsculpting, which cools and removes areas of unwanted fat. Also, for this special occasion, please try Muse original skin care products for your daily care. Please contact us with any needs or for your special offer.
