Thoughts

thought

Since childhood, I have lived by the motto,"Making more people happy."I spent my high school years in the United States before enrolling at Kyoto University. During my time there, I discovered my aspiration to become a doctor and later re-enrolled at Kumamoto University’s School of Medicine to pursue this dream.

After becoming a doctor, I followed my motto by saving countless lives through my work in general medicine and emergency surgery, including training abroad. Driven by a desire to contribute even more to people’s happiness, I transitioned into the field of aesthetic medicine. I began by focusing on the surgical foundation of aesthetic medicine, gaining experience in approximately 1 cases and eventually serving as a clinic director.

Once I felt confident in my grasp of the fundamentals of aesthetic medicine, I embarked on a backpacking trip around the world. Through meeting and interacting with people from diverse backgrounds, I was able to clarify the vision of the aesthetic medicine I wanted to offer.

My goal is to provide cross-disciplinary treatments in cosmetic surgery, cosmetic medicine, and cosmetic dermatology to patients of all nationalities, genders, and gender identities—becoming a "true all-rounder." Upon returning from my global journey, I joined BIANCA CLINIC, known for its cutting-edge and comprehensive treatments, to realize this vision.

Is beauty simply about having big eyes or a high nose? While those elements certainly play a role, I believe thattrue beauty is "a sense of happiness that radiates from within." Through my treatments, I aim to not only help patients achieve external changes but also support them in leading beautiful, fulfilling lives with health and happiness in both body and mind.

For some patients, doctors may have felt "stiff" or "difficult to talk to" in the past. I have a friendly and approachable personality, so please don’t hesitate to consult with me, no matter how small your concern may seem. Additionally, I speak English and welcome consultations from international patients seeking aesthetic treatments in Japan.

Double Eyelid Suture Method

Particulars

Commitment

The double eyelid suture method creates a double eyelid by securing a thread thinner than a hair on the back of the eyelid. The procedure is quick, taking about 15 minutes, and you can apply makeup as early as the next day. Since no scalpel is used, there are no incisions, and stitches do not need to be removed. With minimal downtime, this procedure is ideal for those with busy schedules, such as working professionals or parents.

When performing the double eyelid suture method, I start by thoroughly discussing and aligning on the "ideal double eyelid" design with the patient during pre-surgery counseling. The surgery is then carried out with the goal of perfectly recreating the agreed-upon design. To achieve results such as "no swelling immediately after surgery" and "natural double eyelids that are undetectable even post-surgery," I carefully customize every aspect of the procedure. This includes tailoring the anesthesia, adjusting the strength of the sutures, and selecting the most suitable techniques for each individual.
The procedure involves threading and burying sutures within the eyelid. However, in all the reverse suture double eyelid procedures I have performed to date, I have never had a patient report that the thread came loose after surgery.

If you have specific concerns, such as wanting a precise double eyelid design, minimizing the likelihood of others noticing, or avoiding the need for repeat surgeries, I highly recommend my approach.

Double eyelid suture (reverse suture): A surgical method where the thread is secured on the back side of the eyelid instead of the front. This reduces the visibility of the thread on the outer surface of the eyelid.

Dark Circle Removal

Particulars

Commitment

Dark circles under the eyes can be categorized into three types: black, purple, and brown. Each requires a tailored treatment approach based on its specific cause and condition. At BIANCA CLINIC, we provide detailed consultations to recommend the most suitable treatments for each patient. Options include transconjunctival fat removal, which involves cutting the conjunctiva behind the eyelid to remove orbital fat causing the dark circles, as well as the Hamra and ura-Hamra methods, which reposition orbital fat to fill the hollows under the eyes.
Additionally, simply removing fat can sometimes lead to sagging skin or increased wrinkles. To address this, we may suggest combining the procedure with fat injections or lower eyelid skin removal to achieve optimal results.

Having performed over 1,000 dark circle removal procedures, I have dedicated my career to achieving natural, beautiful outcomes while minimizing downtime. Removing an incorrect amount of fat can result in an unintended tired or aged appearance. To ensure the best results, I rely on my extensive experience and data to evaluate the area not only in XNUMXD but also using a "XNUMXD design" approach, which anticipates future changes.
Another key point, refined through years of practice, is minimizing bleeding during surgery to reduce downtime as much as possible.

If you find yourself frequently asked, "Are you not getting enough sleep?" despite sleeping well, or if you struggle with dark circles that even concealer cannot hide, please do not hesitate to consult with us.

FOX EYE LIFT
(Fox Eye Lift)

Particulars

Commitment

The FOX EYE LIFT is a thread lift procedure that raises the outer corners of the eyes outward and upward. It creates a sharp and defined "fox eye" look, popularized on social media by overseas celebrities, while simultaneously lifting the entire face. Since the procedure utilizes thread lifts, it does not require scalpel incisions. It offers immediate results, has minimal downtime, and provides a relatively long-lasting lift. This procedure is also recommended for those concerned about asymmetry between their left and right eyebrows.

Originating overseas, the FOX EYE LIFT is still a rare offering in Japanese beauty clinics. It has gained popularity among individuals seeking to reduce eye-area sagging, achieve a more youthful appearance, or create sharper, more defined eyes similar to Korean idols. Additionally, this procedure is effective for lifting the forehead and temples, which previously required incisions to address. While the FOX EYE LIFT is well-loved in Europe, the US, and Korea, I have refined the technique to suit the unique features of Japanese eyes.

Whether you desire sharp "fox eyes" like overseas celebrities or are concerned about sagging upper eyelids or the loss of your double eyelid line with age, please feel free to consult with us.

Thoughts on the treatments for double eyelid suturing method.
We asked the doctor about it!

What is most important to you when performing the double eyelid suturing method?

I,I believe that no two double eyelid suture procedures are exactly the same.Each patient’s eye area is unique, and as such, even with the same surgical technique, it’s essential to make subtle adjustments tailored to the individual.

At BIANCA CLINIC, we propose treatment methods that align with each patient’s desired double eyelid shape. Depending on the concerns around the eyes, we can combine the double eyelid suture method with inner and outer corner incisions or eyelid fat removal to help patients achieve their ideal look.
During consultations, we use a virtual stick to simulate the double eyelid line and adjust the design while reviewing the expected postoperative appearance.Some patients are told at other clinics that they cannot undergo the double suture method due to thick eyelid skin or excessive orbital fat, often referred to as “puffy eyes.” However, I have successfully resolved such concerns using the double eyelid suture method.
If you have been told, “I can’t have double eyelid surgery,” and have given up, please consider coming in for a consultation.

To me, cosmetic medicine is not a “fast food" approach where you simply create a double eyelid. It’s about helping people lead happier lives, and the double eyelid surgery is just the starting point.
I want to understand the future my patients hope to create after achieving their double eyelids and work closely with them to make that vision a reality. I place a high priority on counseling, dedicating significant time to speaking with my patients. During these sessions, I encourage you to share your thoughts, your goals, and the future you envision.

What are your favorite aesthetic medical treatments?

I enjoy treatments with minimal downtime and noticeable changes before and after the procedure. The first cosmetic procedure I ever underwent was double eyelid suture surgery, and I still vividly remember the excitement I felt when I achieved double eyelids.
For similar reasons, I also like injectable treatments such asHyaluronic Acid Injection for wrinkle improvement and contouring, as well as harmonica treatments for enhancing skin volume and rejuvenation.Both offer immediate results with little downtime, making them ideal for patients considering skin care.

When it comes to injectable treatments, some patients may worry about the pain of facial injections.
At BIANCA CLINIC, we prioritize patient comfort by using anesthesia and specialized needles designed to minimize pain and internal bleeding. This ensures even patients with concerns about discomfort can undergo treatment with confidence.

For those who say, “I want to take care of my skin, but I don’t know where to start,” we offer a special flat-rate plan: theBIANCA Skin Care Subscription.
Using our unique and highly skilled BIANCA METHODS, we customize treatments to address each patient’s specific concerns. Appointments can be made 24/XNUMX through our online booking system, and we also offer free online consultations via LINE. This makes our services accessible and convenient, even for those new to cosmetic clinics or with busy schedules.

Recently, one of my favorite treatments is the"FOX EYE LIFT"which improves sagging around the eyes and creates sharper, more defined eyes. Seeing patients’ happiness immediately after the procedure reassures me of the treatment’s effectiveness and instant results.

What skin care products do you recommend?

I don’t do anything overly special, but I believe that “prevention is the most important part of skin care.”I consistently take oral medications and use sunscreen.

The oral medications I take include: Vitamin C: Helps prevent blemishes and has a brightening effect. Vitamin E: Supports normalized skin turnover and provides antioxidant effects. Tranexamic acid: Known for its effectiveness against melasma and its anti-inflammatory properties.

As seasons change, my skin tends to become oily, so I use ZO® SKIN HEALTH’s Balancer Toner to maintain balance. When I get acne, I find Maruho’s Zeviax® Lotion 2% very effective. For extreme dryness, I use B.THE CREAM from B., a clinical skincare brand developed by BIANCA CLINIC.

We also offer a special flat-rate plan, the BIANCA Skin Care Subscription, which combines cosmetic treatments like laser therapy and hair removal with oral medications. Additionally, our online shop, BIANCA CLOSET, sells exclusive medical-grade skincare productsYou can enhance your treatment with carefully selected cosmetics available through our platform.

What are your hobbies and special skills?

I recently adopted a dog, and I spend most of my time with him when I’m not at work. While dogs can’t understand language or logic like humans, I feel they have richer emotional expressions. Understanding what my dog wants or dislikes and empathizing with his feelings has been a great opportunity to reflect on interpersonal relationships. Spending time with him has improved my ability to empathize with others.

Before becoming a doctor, I worked as a photographer. On my Instagram, you’ll find not only photos from my current work as a cosmetic surgeon but also images from my time as a photographer and my backpacking adventures around the world. Some posts include moments from when I was pickpocketed in Spain and lost everything—passport, cash, and more—or even times when I was the one receiving cosmetic treatments.
These posts reveal a different side of me from what patients might see in the clinic, helping them feel more connected to me.

On Instagram, I also share videos of myself performing treatments and provide explanations in both Japanese and English. You’ll see real cases and get a glimpse of my passion for cosmetic procedures. If you’re considering a treatment, I encourage you to take a look!
