After engaging in general obstetrics and gynecology practice, including infertility treatment, perinatal care, and other insured treatments, I decided to shift my career to free practice and gynecological aesthetics, with the hope of “supporting women to enjoy their life as a woman” after my own experience fighting against illness. Today, while still being involved in insured medical care as an obstetrician/gynecologist, I am facing women's health issues based on medical evidence through "real femtec" such as gynecologic plastic surgery, Vaginal Growth® injections, and vaginal hyaluronic acid injections, based on my deep anatomical knowledge and skills. We are a leading provider of gynecological services in Japan.
She is also committed to social activities related to the dissemination of sex education, HPV vaccine awareness, and the improvement of women's quality of life. He is also actively involved in educating the public about medical knowledge, such as writing Chapter 7, "Vaginal Hyaluronic Acid Injection," in his specialty book, "The Basics of Cosmetic Surgery," which is the first book he reads when he becomes a cosmetic surgeon.
Fundamental approach using a wealth of expertise x advanced sexual function improvement equipment
Compared to conventional sexual function treatment devices, the Alma Duo is regarded as the “fourth generation” because of the depth of its shock waves and its superior treatment efficiency. At Bianca Clinic, the Alma Duo is performed by physicians who are well versed in the anatomy of female sexual function and have experience in numerous cases related to sexual function. We also have an obstetrician/gynecologist certified by the Japan Medical Specialists Organization, so you can receive the advanced sexual function improvement treatment by Alma Duo in a more secure and reliable environment.

CHARACTERISTICSWhat is Alma Duo?
Alma Duo is a sexual function treatment device that employs Low Output Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (LI-ESWT) technology. Compared to conventional devices that use this technology, the unique electro-hydraulic applicator delivers shock waves to a greater depth (135 mm) with shorter pulses. Because the irradiated area is wider and deeper, the patient can easily feel changes even with a small number of irradiations.
In addition, it not only improves problems such as painful intercourse, vaginal dryness, and urine leakage in women, but also addresses ED (erectile dysfunction) in men, providing a broad approach for both genders. Its effectiveness has been verified by the developer, with clinical data extending over a period of more than two years.
Non-invasive procedures that take into account pain and downtime
ALMADUO is a non-invasive sexual function treatment device that uses shock waves to support biological responses related to blood flow. Since no surgery or injections involving anesthesia are required, the treatment is gentle on the body and causes little pain or downtime. If you are concerned about pain because of the delicate genital area, or if you have had difficulty tolerating pain from previous treatments, please consider Alma Duo.
Long-term changes can be expected with a series of short treatments.
The treatment time for ALMADUO is approximately 15 minutes. The standard treatment period is 3 weeks, with 6 sessions per course, twice a week, and can be repeated after 3 weeks. Because of the “short-term intensive” treatment design, the frequency of treatment may seem high. However, the advantage of this is that the condition after the treatment can be maintained for a relatively long period of time by concentrating the treatment in a short period of time. For those who have difficulty with twice-weekly irradiation, we can propose an alternative schedule.

RECOMMENDED POINTSWhat are the “changes in the body and mind” brought about by sexual function therapy?
Many people are unable to talk to others about their sexual function problems because of embarrassment or because they do not know where to go for help. However, treating sexual dysfunctions and complexes, rather than leaving them untreated, has various benefits for the body and mind.
For example...
- Improved relationships with partners
- Enhancement of sexual life
- Increased self-esteem
In addition, since problems with sexual function often place a heavy emotional burden on the patient, aiming for improvement may lead to a reduction in daily stress and improved sleep quality.
The female and male genitalia are delicate parts of the body, which is why it is important to choose a doctor you can trust. For those who want to receive careful and convincing counseling and professional and precise treatment, please contact Bianca, where obstetricians and gynecologists certified by the Japan Medical Specialists Organization are available.
What is the difference from conventional devices? Almaduo Sexual Function Treatment
ALMADUO promotes angiogenesis and helps improve blood flow by efficiently irradiating shock waves in a single treatment. The number of irradiations at this time is far fewer than with conventional equipment.
Nevertheless, many people experience the effects because the unique electro-hydraulic applicator allows for efficient irradiation deep into the female genitalia. Even in the treatment of ED in men, the energy reaches not only the penile trunk but also the penile leg, enabling an efficient approach.
What are the female sexual dysfunctions that can be treated with Armaduo?
Although it may be difficult to talk openly about sexuality, and it may not be a topic of conversation with those around you, there are actually many women who have problems with sexual function.
For example...
- Pain during intercourse due to lack of vaginal moisture
- Decreased sensitivity during intercourse
- Pain during intercourse and non-sexual intercourse due to chronic pelvic pain syndrome
- Intercourse pain due to vulvar vestibulitis syndrome
Many women report that they are not having orgasms during intercourse or that they are dissatisfied with their sex life. Chronic pelvic pain syndrome may be suspected if pelvic pain persists for more than three months, and vulvar vestibulitis syndrome may be suspected if there is pain or burning sensation around the vaginal entrance.
The ALMADUO is one of the few sexual function treatment devices that can be used by both men and women. At Bianca, physicians with a wealth of knowledge and experience in gynecologic plastic surgery are in charge of examination and treatment, and will provide support for women who have problems with sexual function.
