MiraDry Fatality Incident


Reading Time: <1 minuteMiraDry is a medical device used to treat severe axillary hyperhidrosis. In May 2022, a research group from Tokyo Medical and Dental University reported the death of a woman who underwent MiraDry treatment. After receiving MiraDry treatment in areas other than the armpits (around the lower abdomen), the woman experienced serious side effects such as fever and bleeding, and ultimately died from a fatal infection called Fournier's gangrene. In response to this accident, seven medical societies and organizations in Japan issued a warning about the proper use of MiraDry. It is not recommended to use MiraDry in areas other than the armpits, and its use in areas outside of its intended use may cause serious side effects and complications..

Mole and wart removal is eligible for medical expense deduction.


Reading Time: <1 minuteInsurance Coverage: Some moles on the body and face are covered by insurance. If a tissue test is performed for a pathological diagnosis, removal is all covered by insurance. What is a mole?: Mole is a common name and a form of skin tumor. Mole is also called pigmented nevus or nevus cell nevus, and wart refers to a viral disease called verruca vulgaris. There is also senile wart, which is a type of senile wart. Diagnosis and treatment: The specialist will not only visually examine the mole, but will also use a dermascope to diagnose whether it is benign or malignant and explain the best method of removal. If malignancy is suspected, a pathological diagnosis will be performed by biopsy or excision, which will also be covered by insurance and eligible for medical expense deduction. Insurance coverage and medical expense deductions: Moles on the body are not for cosmetic purposes but are benign tumors that are a disease, so they are covered by insurance and eligible for medical expense deductions. (Removal of large moles may be considered cosmetic.) of the Directions & Parking:We will provide you with a quote, so please feel free to contact us. Possibility of recurrence: If complete removal by excision is not possible, moles and warts may recur. The probability is about 30%. Black moles that are not raised are more likely to recur because the pigment is present deep in the dermis. Features of our clinic: At our clinic, we carefully examine and diagnose each mole, and our specialists will remove and care for it using the treatment that leaves the least amount of scarring. Case photo: You can check the case photos just before and after removal. Discovery Rate: PrecancerousActinic keratosisIn cases where there is suspicion, including those who have been diagnosed with a mole at another medical institution, a pathology test will be performed and the results will be covered by insurance and eligible for medical expense deductions. Please be careful: We are seeing a sharp increase in consultations from patients who have been left with ugly burn scars after mole and wart treatments that were all-you-can-remove. It is rare for a skilled specialist to offer all-you-can-remove treatments. Beware of rough treatment: Beware of careless mole removal treatments using carbon dioxide lasers. If a specialist does not carefully remove each mole one by one, ugly scars may remain. Criteria for choosing a reliable medical institution :
  1. Treatment
  2. Achievements
  3. A doctor who specializes in mole removal
  4. Doctor experience, part-time doctor
  5. Specialist qualifications
  6. Guarantee
  7. Issuance of receipts for medical expense deduction
  8. Detailed explanation from the doctor
  9. Do you provide medical treatment covered by insurance?
  10. Are you providing good care?
We recommend that you receive treatment at a reliable medical institution that meets these standards. Immediately after mole removal, you will have an abrasion-like scar, but it will disappear within four months and become almost unnoticeable.

Doping by cosmetic surgeons


Reading Time: <1 minute
A certain cosmetic surgeon administered exosomes, stem cell culture supernatant, intravenously to a top athlete and world champion professional boxer, and the case was heavily promoted in a press release and on YouTube.
This is an outrageous medical procedure and would never be tolerated in the sports world.
Complete doping.
Doping has recently come under strict scrutiny even in professional boxing.
I have been involved in professional boxing for 25 years as a professional boxing trainer, and as a fellow cosmetic surgeon I believe this is a major event.
Why doping?
1. The intravenous administration of unnecessary drugs to speed up recovery or improve physical performance.
2: Exosomes containing growth factors that are clearly prohibited from administration and are on the negative list are being administered.
3: Administration of unauthorized substances is not permitted.
It is impossible to administer pure exosomes, as they become contaminated with various cytokines, including growth factors, during the manufacturing process.
Also, there are no cosmetic surgeons who can clearly tell us the specific ingredients and their amounts. (If there are, I would like to know.)
The professional boxer probably didn't know about doping because he didn't have any knowledge about it. This cosmetic surgeon's outrageous act is so outrageous that it could wipe out the career of a professional boxing world champion.
Athletes should never receive stem cell culture supernatant or exosome infusions.
This is outright doping.

WADA 2025 Prohibited Substances and Methods List

There has been a lot of ethics surrounding cosmetic surgeons being highlighted in recent posts made inappropriately in an attempt to look good on Instagram, but isn't this also a big problem?

Illegal beauty equipment company SALANJEE on the run?


Reading Time: <1 minuteWe have been warning you about this for some time, but the website of an illegal beauty equipment company has suddenly been closed. This is SALANJEE Co., Ltd., an illegal equipment sales company that has been selling HIFU treatment equipment for many years, knowing that it is illegal. We do not know the reason for the sudden closure of the site, but it seems that the site was suddenly closed, whether it was raided by the police, went bankrupt, lost a lawsuit, or was closed down because they thought it was bad that their illegality was pointed out. This corporation is related to a treatment called energy therapy, but it seems that it has also had trouble with various organizations, such as lawsuits. We do not know whether it is involved with the organization that is illegally advertising that the treatment at beauty salons called energy therapy is effective for headaches, back pain, constipation, and eye fatigue, but it is possible that it is a similar treatment. [It is a clear violation of the Pharmaceutical and Medical Device Act for non-doctors to advertise that it is effective for diseases and clearly state the treatment effect] In any case, I think it was good from the perspective of not increasing the number of victims any more. If you sell illegal beauty equipment, your clients will suffer in the future. Major problems with HIFU have been covered in the news, and although it is unclear whether this corporation is involved, any corporation with common sense should stop selling the product as soon as the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare issues a warning that it is illegal. This is clearly a crime rather than a shady business. We recommend that salon owners and clients who have been victimized contact the local police station directly.

miraDry victim


Reading Time: <1 minuteSince the beginning of this year, many patients have been recommended MiraDry as an effective treatment for underarm odor, but have come to our clinic to ask about retreatment, as it has no effect at all. At our clinic, more than half of the patients who first visit for underarm odor treatment are ineffective or have recurrences after MiraDry. As I have mentioned many times in my blog, you cannot expect MiraDry to be effective against underarm odor. It is a lie that the treatment causes little pain, swelling, or downtime. Because it is a treatment that forcibly causes burns to the skin, severe pain and swelling appear for a relatively long period of time, and MiraDry causes overwhelmingly more pain and swelling than surgery. There is no end to underarm odor patients who are deceived by exaggerated and false advertising and receive MiraDry treatment. Of course, MiraDry has been recognized as effective for primary axillary hyperhidrosis, and there is no doubt that it is a medical device approved by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare for this disease name. There is a problem with nurses, not doctors, arbitrarily performing the treatment in cases outside of the indications and in areas outside of the indications, with profit as the priority. JMEC, a cosmetic medicine manufacturer that handles MiraDry, is a long-established and excellent manufacturer in the cosmetic medicine industry with a rich track record and actively holds research meetings and seminars. I have also served as a lecturer at and participated in JMEC's ​​seminars in the past, and learned a lot from them. It is impossible for JMEC, a leading cosmetic medicine company, to say that MiraDry is effective for underarm odor, which is not applicable, or to recommend that nurses perform the treatment. When the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare applied for medical device approval, the treatment should have been performed by a doctor, not a nurse. Why would a nurse with no knowledge or experience in underarm odor treatment be in charge of the treatment? I cannot understand. Treatment by a nurse is definitely a gray area and a major ethical problem. In particular, there have been cases recently where patients have died after undergoing treatment with MiraDry on areas that are not applicable or not applicable, resulting in serious infections due to skin necrosis caused by third-degree burns. Although it is assumed that a nurse will perform the treatment, the current situation is that in most cosmetic clinics in Japan, nurses, not doctors, perform MiraDry, and profit is prioritized. This is a frightening situation. I assume that Jaymec is probably also in a very difficult situation like this. Even though clinical trials are conducted, medical equipment certification is conducted, study sessions are held, and efforts are made to spread correct knowledge and technology, the emergence of beauty clinics that ignore risks and effectiveness and pursue profits only, just like exosome drips, has greatly reduced the quality of cosmetic medicine in Japan. I don't think exosomes are bad, and they may be a treatment with great potential. The problem is the act of beauty clinics that prioritize profit and ignore safety. MiraDry is not effective against body odor. At our clinic, we provide relief to patients who have fallen victim to the MiraDry body odor business. There is almost no pain, no downtime, and no scars, and you can get an impactful effect. As an EL law specialist, I will take responsibility and guarantee safety and effectiveness and carry out the treatment carefully. Would you like to receive body odor treatment from a nurse? Or would you like to receive it from a skilled specialist who is familiar with body odor? Please consider carefully. If you are suffering from body odor, breast odor, or hem odor, please feel free to contact us.

Vagal Healer, a cutting-edge technology device developed, is launched


Reading Time: 2 minutesThe ultimate healing device [Vagal Healer] ・What is the human operating system, the vagus nerve? The vagus nerve is the 10th cranial nerve and is a representative parasympathetic nerve that emerges from the medulla oblongata and passes through the thoracic and abdominal cavities. It is the most important nerve for maintaining life, and plays a role in controlling the internal environment, equivalent to the OS in a computer, and regulates the movement and secretion functions of internal organs such as the heart, lungs, liver, and stomach and intestines. It also functions as a sensory nerve that transmits the sensations of the internal organs to the brain. It controls the vocal cords and is involved in speech production and swallowing. It also has a major impact on the brain and is involved in controlling intestinal bacteria. ・Research on the vagus nerve is gaining momentum around the world A paper stating that the vagus nerve is the main cause of after-effects of COVID-19 infection has attracted attention around the world.https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4479598 By controlling the vagus nerve Inflammatory diseases (rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, chronic fatigue syndrome, infections, sepsis, etc.) Brain diseases (Parkinson's disease, dementia, post-stroke paralysis, epilepsy, depression, autism, intractable headaches, etc.) It is possible to improve many diseases and there is evidence that it may also improve cancer survival rates. Many papers have been published showing that vagus nerve stimulation (neuromodulation) can improve various diseases without the use of drugs. The world's largest pharmaceutical companies have also begun research and development of electronic medicine. - Vagus nerve stimulation therapy is safer and more effective than exosomes and stem cell culture supernatant infusion. Exosome infusions and stem cell culture supernatant infusions are widely used in the field of aesthetic medicine for the purposes of anti-aging and treating various diseases. However, there is still no evidence and safety has not been established, so the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare and various academic circles have issued warnings to be cautious when administering infusions. Vagus nerve stimulation therapy, which is being studied worldwide, is an effective treatment with established safety and evidence. ・Improve your golf score with vagus nerve stimulation therapy Vagus nerve stimulation therapy has been shown to not only treat diseases, but also improve athletic performance, stress management, and brain performance. It has been shown to improve the concentration of golfers and their scores, improve performance in eSports, and improve the physical performance of athletes in all sports. At our clinic, the Japanese Olympic team, medalists, and many top professional athletes have used the vagus nerve stimulation therapy [Lung Activity] and seen remarkable results. ・Artists and famous critics improve their vocal skills For artists, vocalization has become smoother, and Diamond☆Yukai also feels that his vocalization has become smoother and more powerful after introducing vagus nerve stimulation therapy [Lung Activity] before a live performance. Dr. Soichiro Tahara, who is over 90 years old, once had difficulty speaking, which caused him to stop appearing on television. However, thanks to vagus nerve stimulation therapy (Chukatsu), his vocal cord and respiratory function improved, allowing him to speak again and he made a comeback. ・Research and development of the ultimate healing device For over 20 years, I have been conducting research on the autonomic nervous system together with Professor Hiroyuki Kobayashi of the Juntendo University School of Medicine. (My doctoral thesis was on the study of the autonomic nervous system in sports medicine, and the third author was Dr. Daichi Suzuki, a gold medalist in swimming at the Seoul Olympics and former Commissioner of the Japan Sports Agency.) We have developed an exercise called "Lung Activity" that most effectively improves vagus nerve function, and an approach to the auricular vagus nerve area.  Devices that stimulate the vagus nerve area of ​​the ear with an electric current have been developed and are widely available overseas, but electrical stimulation is often uncomfortable and has a poor healing effect, so we were looking for other physical energies to stimulate the auricular vagus nerve area. That's when we came across vibration and heat. Two and a half years ago, I met Kado Corporation and presented my idea for a vagus nerve stimulation device and my theory on lung vitality to the president and other executives. I discussed the possibility of creating the world's first vagus nerve stimulation device, in other words, the next generation of the ultimate healing device. To my surprise, I was given the go-ahead to develop it after just 30 minutes of presentation. After undergoing various improvements and undergoing successive upgrades with the production of five generations of prototypes, the next-generation ultimate healing device was developed based on ergonomics with a thorough focus on cutting-edge technology and design and was released at the end of January 2025. It is the Vagal Healer. - Futuristic design that fits around the neck and ears. - The world's first vagus nerve stimulation device to use vibration and thermal energy. - Use of music by autonomic nervous system artists that is effective against the autonomic nervous system. -Detailed control possible via the app. - Designed to ensure that vibrations do not interfere with bone conduction music. - It is possible to approach the sternocleidomastoid muscle by applying the theory of [lung vitality]. ・You can practice lung activity with audio guidance. By stimulating the ear and the insertion point of the sternocleidomastoid muscle in the neck, vagus nerve stimulation is made more efficient, and the fine vibrations from the vibration element provide the ultimate in relaxation. Even during development, the effectiveness of the device was confirmed by monitoring autonomic nervous function using prototypes. This next-generation healthcare device was developed as a medical-engineering collaboration project by specialist doctors and Japan's leading manufacturer of design home appliances. ・The great potential of the healing device [Vagal Healer] This portable device can be used not only for healthcare but also for many other purposes, such as improving sports performance, relaxation, improving concentration while studying, breathing support, etc. Since it is not a medical device, it cannot be used for disease treatment outside of medical institutions, but it is expected to be applied in a variety of fields, including health promotion, education, femtech, sports, nursing care, eSports, beauty salons, and spas. As a researcher of the autonomic nervous system and the vagus nerve, I wanted to develop a device that would be useful to society. I would be delighted if the Vagal Healer could be a device that can heal many physical ailments, such as sleep disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, stress, and muscle tension, even if they do not lead to illness. We developed this system to be easily portable and usable by anyone, from children to men and women, even the elderly, anytime and anywhere. It can also be used as a soothing audio device. ・Towards the future We have created this app with the intention of upgrading Vagal Healer, including adding music of your choice, introducing an autonomic nervous function measurement system, and evaluating the effectiveness of the device before and after use. Further features are planned to be added in the new version. We are also planning clinical trials using [Vagal Healer] at a university medical school to confirm its effects on the autonomic nervous system. Last year, I also gave a lecture at a hands-on seminar hosted by Selista Co., Ltd. Medical professionals can purchase it from Selista Co., Ltd.
