A dual-specialty doctor with a background in plastic surgery, bridging cosmetic surgery and ophthalmology. At the university hospital, he performed numerous high-difficulty cases, primarily focusing on eye and facial bone surgeries, cultivating precise techniques grounded in anatomy. He prioritizes achieving both aesthetic beauty and functional safety, offering customized treatments around the eyes that incorporate ophthalmological expertise. He actively utilizes not only incisional surgery but also non-invasive procedures like hyaluronic acid injections. By carefully assessing each individual's condition and unique appeal, he provides bespoke treatments that guide patients toward naturally harmonious, well-defined eyes.
Hello, I'm Ryutaro Natsume, an image designer and cosmetic surgeon.
Many people become concerned about sagging caused by bone and soft tissue atrophy with age, as well as a loss of firmness due to decreased collagen in the dermis.
This time, we introduce a hydroxyapatite formulation that can improve both!
Hydroxyapatite (CaHA) is a type of calcium phosphate found in human teeth and bones.
When injected subcutaneously, it provides long-lasting collagen-boosting effects, increasing dermal volume and enhancing firmness.
A dual-effect hybrid injection formulation combined with hyaluronic acid is now available!
・Hyaluronic acid provides instant volume enhancement and lifting effects
・Gradual and long-term collagen production promotion effect by calcium hydroxyapatite
can be expected.
It delivers effects that conventional hyaluronic acid formulations could not achieve.
◯NEAUVIA STIMULATE
CaHA concentration is low (1%)
NEAUVIA series has reported zero cases of allergies (because it does not use BDDE, the substance responsible for hyaluronic acid allergies).
Use this when you want to achieve substantial volume while also expecting some collagen production.
◯Harmonica (HArmonyCa) Allergan
High CaHA concentration (55%)
Recommended for those in their late 30s experiencing collagen loss and with relatively thin skin.
It effectively improves volume while promoting collagen production to enhance skin firmness.
It is recommended for anti-aging purposes.
Summary of Usage Differences
◯NEAUVIA STIMULATE→
20s to 30s
I want to add substantial volume and shape the contours, while also achieving a bit more firmness.
◯Harmonica (HArmonyCa) Allergan
In my late 30s, with relatively thin skin
Primarily focuses on skin-nourishing effects, with a slightly subdued volume for a natural finish.
Clinics offering hydroxyapatite (CaHA) treatments are still relatively rare in Japan.
Please feel free to consult with our clinic, which has extensive treatment experience!
