While Cosmetic Medicine Technology Evolves, the Technology Gap Between Urban and Rural Areas Grows Widespread and Serious 　Aesthetic medicine top-runners' technical training sessions are popular at local clinics.

TUKIYOMI Corporation (Head office: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative: Toru Nakamura), a beauty clinic consulting company, will hold a technical seminar on thread lift for local beauty clinic doctors in Nagoya on July 8, 2024, inviting Akiko Tanaka, director of Akiko Clinic (Setagaya-ku, Tokyo), a top runner in the beauty care industry, as a lecturer. The workshop will be held in Nagoya, Japan, on July 8, 2024. The purpose of this workshop is to correct the technical disparity between urban and rural areas and to realize safe and secure cosmetic medicine in order to reduce the number of cosmetic medical problems that continue to increase every year.

You can see Dr. Tanaka's techniques up close.

The Growing Casualization and Widening Technological Disparity

Currently, aesthetic medicine is becoming more casualized. This is due to the spread of petit plastic surgery, which is less expensive than in the past, and the fact that it is being communicated through social networking services and other means. Among these, the thread lift, which can easily lift sagging skin without using a scalpel to achieve a smaller face, is now attracting attention. The speed of evolution of cosmetic medicine is very fast, and new technologies are being updated rapidly.

However, the reality is that clinics in rural areas do not update their technology in the same way as clinics in central Tokyo, and there is a technology gap between them and clinics in central Tokyo. The first reason is that rural clinics do not have the opportunity to learn new techniques due to the lack of growth in the number of cases. The second reason is that rural clinics tend to stop growing due to a lack of manpower, which results in the director becoming a director with little experience.

This tends to create a gap in technology, knowledge, and experience between rural clinics and clinics in urban centers. This disparity in technology prevents rural cosmetic clinics from updating their technology correctly, which can lead to medical problems. This is also one of the reasons for poor clinic management, as clients are drawn to the city center.

Hands-on seminar by the industry's top runner

In order to bridge the technical gap between rural and urban areas, Dr. Akiko Tanaka, the director of Akiko Clinic, who is famous as the leading authority on thread lift, is holding a hands-on seminar on thread lift techniques. Dr. Tanaka has performed more than 6,000 thread lift procedures in 15 years. He has also served as the president of the Japanese Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and has earned tremendous trust in the aesthetic medicine industry.

Hands-on seminars are held irregularly at the request of local doctors, and will be held at the local clinics that have applied. The seminar focuses on practical techniques for thread lifts, so you can see the techniques of the industry's top runners up close, even though you are in a rural area. Another feature of this program is that you will receive one-on-one direct instruction.

Since September 2023, more than 20 sessions have been held in Nagoya, Miyazaki, Gifu, Osaka, Fukuoka, Okayama, Shiga, and other locations. This is an extremely valuable opportunity for doctors in rural areas who have the desire but few places to learn.

A rare opportunity to receive direct instruction from Dr. Tanaka.

Our goal is to provide safe and secure cosmetic medicine.

Comment from a participant: "In this day and age, information is available even in rural areas, but it is rare to have the opportunity to learn practical skills directly. Direct instruction from a top instructor in the industry was a real life experience. I really appreciate you coming to our school even though it was far from here."

Dr. Tanaka commented, "There are enthusiastic teachers even in rural areas. But for those teachers who are not able to move flexibly due to distance or family reasons, I think it makes sense for us to travel to them and provide hands-on training.

Representative TUKIYOMI commented, "There are an increasing number of clinics in rural areas that have fallen into a negative cycle due to the technology gap with those in urban centers. We believe that support to bridge this gap will continue to be necessary in the future.
