I went to Yotsubakai for spot removal! [My first aesthetic medical treatment]

Hello!

I have naturally fair skin and am prone to getting spots.
I've tried various skincare products all my life until now, but they never really disappeared, and as I've gotten older, the spots have only increased, which has been a source of worry for me.

I had been curious about [Yotsubakai].

It became a hot topic in the community that a clinic where you can receive aesthetic medical treatments at super low prices had opened in Japan!!

With a follow and quote retweet on X,
it's 7,700 yen for a facial laser + unlimited Pico spot removal!

I tried making a reservation!

It seems you can't wear makeup or sunscreen on the day, so I went with a UV hat, a Yake-nu mask, and a parasol to hide my face until the very last second! UV protection is tough this time of year!

The Ikebukuro branch is a 2-minute walk from the East Exit! I thought I had given myself plenty of time, but because of the crowds and it being a place I'd never been to before, I ended up arriving 5 minutes before my appointment...

I had assumed it would be intimidating, but when I got there, there were all kinds of people, including men, and it felt like a place you could go to casually!

The flow is: fill out a medical questionnaire -> consultation with a doctor -> treatment!!

I was recommended electroporation during the consultation, and since it was half-price, I decided to add it on!

Maybe it was because my skin was irritated that day... I wonder if people without skin irritation don't need it? But I was told it contains vitamin C and is good for downtime, so I guess it's fine for now (vague).

✔ Electroporation
After putting on a headband and lying down, they first slather warm beauty serum on my forehead, right cheek, and left cheek! After that, cold beauty serum! It didn't hurt at all; it was actually quite pleasant!
I looked it up and it seems to be something like this ⬇

After that, I was made to wait a little while, and then it was finally time for the laser!

They did something to me at first (it didn't hurt much and I don't really remember it).
After that, a female doctor performed the laser treatment.

This was

Extremely painful!!!! (crying)

I don't know if it's because my face is covered in spots or if my skin is more sensitive than others, but if this procedure is described as having 'little pain,' does that mean there are ones that are even more painful?! (screaming)

I had heard it described as 'the pain of being snapped with a rubber band,' so I thought I could handle that, but in my case,
it felt like 'the pain of having my skin pricked hard with several beds of nails.' It was seriously too painful.

It only takes a few minutes, but it kept throbbing unbearably even after it was over, so I left the room with a pained expression...
It hurt, so I went home early, but it kept throbbing for about 30 minutes...

Amount charged on the day

It seems that aftercare involves gentle face washing for about a week (a gentle foam type is recommended), using the ointment I bought that day, and then thoroughly moisturizing and taking UV protection measures afterward!
It's already hot and the UV rays are terrible, so I want to be careful!
It seems the scabs will fall off in about two weeks and it will be clear in about a month!

If you are getting spot removal for the first time, you might need a foam-type face wash, gentle skincare products, and UV protection gear!
Also, the determination to endure the pain!!! lol

Cosmetic medical procedures end up being expensive because you have to go many times, but Yotsubakai is reassuring because the base prices are low!
(When I went to another beauty clinic for a consultation before, I was given an estimate in the 100,000 yen range for the first visit.)

Next time, I might need to go for electroporation once every week to six months, and for spot removal, I might end up visiting about three times over the next eight months.

A new campaign had started on the day of my procedure.

It's an incredible deal, right! Let's aim for weekdays! It seems there was even a weekday daytime campaign where one treatment was free! (It was also in the first image)

Come to think of it, the reviews said the staff were sloppy or had poor service, but I found them speedy and didn't have any issues at all!
Actually, I'm the type who feels pressured if they are too attentive! lol

My impression of Yotsubakai is that it's a place where you can easily and casually get aesthetic medical treatments!

About a week later, the scabs started to come off!

Results

I should have gone sooner!!!
A complex I've had for over 10 years, gone in such a short time?!

I've heard that if you don't take UV protection seriously, they can get even darker, so I'll keep doing my best!
