What is Skin Amure? What are doctor-recommended cosmetics?
My journey into aesthetic medicine stems from a desire to help enrich and beautify lives beyond simply treating illness. My specialties include hyaluronic acid, Botox, and thread lifts. I provide treatments that enhance each individual's unique qualities and bring out an elegant, natural beauty. For concerns around the eyes that are difficult to improve with dermatology alone, I also perform surgical procedures. By integrating dermatology and surgery, I holistically balance the entire face. With three periods of overseas study, I am also able to provide consultations in English.
Hello!
I am Ayuri Yokoyama, a plastic surgeon and cosmetic dermatologist.

Better late than never, but...
I hear a lot about doctor-developed cosmetics, but what's the real deal?

・Gentle enough for sensitive skin and post-treatment skin

This is a highly recommended home care item.

Points to Note / Key Points to Keep in Mind
Even though they're called doctor-recommended cosmetics, they're not necessarily a one-size-fits-all solution for everyone.
Please note and understand the following points when using this product.
・It does not provide "immediate and dramatic improvement."
While it is a high-performance skincare product, skincare alone cannot match the immediate results of treatments like lasers or injections.
Beautiful skin doesn't happen overnight! Long-term consistent use combined with cosmetic treatments is ideal.
・Priced higher than regular cosmeticsThere are cases where this is the case.
That said, department store cosmetics tend to be pricier, though.
・Product selection must be tailored to the intended use and skin condition
Example: For pore care, try "SA WASH" and "SA CLAY PACK"; for dark spots and radiance, try "SA SERUM" and "SA TABRIGHT".
Recommended items vary depending on your goals, so please let us suggest the perfect items for you during your consultation.

On the other hand, the price is slightly higher compared to general cosmetics,
Product selection, continued use, and combination with beauty treatments are key.
While understanding that skincare is not an instant fix,
On the other hand, while cosmetic medical procedures at clinics are performed about once a month,
Skincare is60 beauty treatments per monthThat's it!
Personally, I consider it to be as good as or even better than cosmetic procedures.
I believe it's an important practice for beautiful skin ☺
