Wait Times and Appointment Slots
- Wait Times for Consultations and Procedures
-
At our clinic, the majority of consultation hours are fully booked. We strive to keep the average wait time around 15 minutes, with a maximum wait of 30 minutes whenever possible. As multiple patients are scheduled in each time slot, the order of calling may vary depending on the nature of each consultation. Additionally, you may notice that there are no other patients in the waiting area and wonder why you have not yet been called; in such cases, the doctor is often attending to surgical or procedural tasks. We kindly ask for your understanding in these situations.
Please note that if you arrive late, we prioritize patients who have arrived on time, which may result in a longer waiting period.
If we anticipate a wait time exceeding 15 minutes, our staff will provide an update on the expected wait. Should you experience a delay of over 15 minutes without receiving any information, please feel free to inquire at the reception desk.
- Reasons for Wait Times
-
At our clinic, wait times may arise due to the following reasons:
- Delays from other patients
- Procedures or treatments taking longer than expected
- Urgent consultations without prior reservations
We occasionally receive feedback from patients expressing concerns about waiting despite having an appointment, while others are penalized for arriving late. However, even brief delays can accumulate, causing overall scheduling delays that ultimately affect patients who arrived on time. When all patients arrive promptly, we are typically able to maintain wait times within 15 minutes. To help reduce wait times for everyone, we appreciate your cooperation in arriving on time for your scheduled appointment.
- Appointment Slots
-
Initial consultations are allotted 15 minutes, while follow-up appointments are approximately 5 minutes. To ensure a smooth experience, we recommend reviewing treatment details on our website prior to your visit. If additional concerns arise during follow-up visits, please book an initial consultation slot.
- Wait Times for Placenta Injections
-
Many patients visit our clinic for placenta injections. While these injections are administered by our nursing staff, allowing us to minimize wait times, some patients may experience a wait of up to 10 minutes due to ongoing consultations or procedures (most patients are seen within 10 minutes).
We make every effort to facilitate a smooth experience for all patients. Thank you for your understanding and patience should any delays occur.
Precautions before your visit
- Self-funded treatment and fees
-
Our treatments are not covered by insurance. Please confirm the fees in advance on each page. Treatment using unapproved drugs and medical devices in Japan is not covered by the Adverse Reactions Relief System for Drugs.
- The consultation fee is 3,850 yen for an initial visit and 1,650 yen for a follow-up visit (tax included). For those who have previously visited our clinic, except for medical hair removal, the consultation fee will be the re-consultation fee even if the treatment menu is changed.
- There is no consultation fee for medical hair removal, but a separate consultation fee will be charged when you receive other medical services.
- If you are receiving the same treatment or injection by a nurse for the second or subsequent times and do not wish to have a medical examination, there is no consultation fee. However, if the treatment area is different, a consultation is required.
- If you wish to purchase cosmetics, topical products, or vitamins for the second or subsequent time and do not wish to be examined by a physician, no re-consultation fee will be charged. You can purchase them at the reception desk without an appointment.
- Consultation Timeframe
-
We will set aside 15 minutes for an initial consultation and 5 minutes for a follow-up consultation. Please read about the treatment and other information on our website in advance, as much as you can.

Please come to the clinic without makeup as we will examine your skin. You may come early and remove your makeup in the clinic. Please ask a staff member.
Precautions for medical examinations
- About waiting time
-
Because our appointments are scheduled by time slots, several patients may come to the clinic at the same time. Please understand that the order in which you are called may vary.
The average waiting time is 15 minutes, and the longest is 30 minutes.
- Photography and smartphone calls in the clinic
-
For the protection of personal information, unauthorized photography is strictly prohibited. Also, please set your phone to silent mode and refrain from talking in the clinic.
- Gender Equality
-
Our clinic is committed to the philosophy of improving prejudice and inequality based on gender in the workplace (gender equality). There are cases in which female patients are treated by male nurses or male patients are treated by female nurses for injections and various procedures.
We are doing this as part of our duties as medical professionals, and we ask for your understanding and cooperation in this matter.
If you have a preference for a male or female nurse, please let us know at the reception desk. We will do our best to accommodate you. Please note that there may be a long waiting time or it may be difficult to accommodate you in such cases.
- Customer Harassment
-
It is very unfortunate that some people give orders to our staff or yell at them suddenly, and we do not allow such people to visit our clinic.
The clinic assumes that the following behavior constitutes “customer harassment”.
Abusive or condescending attitude toward staff
(e.g., “Hey! You! or other words or actions that denigrate the personality of the staff member).Sexual harassment
(Making sexual requests, sexual comments, touching, seducing, etc.)Excessive demands beyond the scope of our medical services
(acts such as coercion to provide free medical care or treatment, refusal to pay fees, coercion to perform medically risky procedures, etc.)Violence
(hitting, kicking, pushing, grabbing, throwing things, etc.)Psychological aggression
(prolonged or multiple complaints that interfere with the performance of work, loud intimidation, abuse, slander, etc.)We consider the feedback we receive from our patients to be valuable advice to us. However, we will refuse to provide any further medical treatment or treatment for the protection of our employees in the event of excessive behavior. In the event of a problem, we will make a thorough note of the problem in the medical record, and in some cases, we may take measures such as consulting a lawyer or the police, contacting them, or reporting the problem.
Please do not hesitate to consult with our receptionists, nurses, or doctors if you have any problems with your medical treatment. We will continue to make every effort to provide better medical care to our patients.
