For those new to regenerative medicine, it is natural to feel nervous or anxious about visiting a clinic. At AVAN TOKYO, we provide clear explanations regarding our treatment procedures and clinic policies to ensure that first-time visitors can attend with confidence.
At AVAN TOKYO Ginza Hair Regenerative Medicine, we treat thinning hair and hair loss by injecting stem cell culture supernatant derived from adipose stem cells into the scalp. A physician handles everything from examination to injection.
What Is Regenerative Medicine?
Regenerative medicine may sound complicated. The stem cell culture supernatant used in our scalp injections is a liquid containing components secreted while stem cells are cultured. The cells themselves are not injected.
Stem cell culture supernatant contains cytokines, exosomes and other components. Injected into the scalp, it aims to act on hair matrix cells and the scalp environment. Results vary from person to person.
Hair loss medications such as finasteride mainly aim to reduce hair loss. Scalp injection works on the scalp by a different mechanism and can be combined with medication. This is elective (self-pay) treatment, so health insurance does not apply.
For Those with These Concerns
AVAN TOKYO welcomes many patients with the following concerns:
We are consulted about thinning at the front or crown due to male pattern hair loss (AGA), diffuse thinning in women, increased shedding, a widening part or crown, and concern about the side effects of hair loss medication.
In addition to scalp injection, we offer infusion of stem cell culture supernatant, administration to the skin (face, neck and back of the hands) and intranasal administration.
Initial Consultation Process
At AVAN TOKYO, we begin with a thorough consultation. We carefully inquire about your concerns, desires, current health status, lifestyle habits, and other relevant factors to propose the most appropriate treatment method.
During the consultation, we provide clear explanations of all information you wish to know, including treatment content, expected effects, risks and side effects, costs, and post-treatment lifestyle considerations. Please feel free to ask any questions or express any concerns you may have.
Our clinic does not engage in aggressive solicitation. Furthermore, there is no need to make a treatment decision on the spot. We believe that allowing patients to consider carefully and receive treatment only after being fully convinced leads to favorable outcomes.
Ensuring Your Peace of Mind During Treatment
What AVAN TOKYO values most is the trust relationship with our patients. When we determine from a medical perspective that a treatment is not appropriate, we will not recommend it unnecessarily. Our mission is to provide sincere medical care with the patient’s health and safety as our foremost priority.
No treatment is entirely without risk. For this reason, we wish to provide patients with accurate information and realistic expectations, ensuring they receive treatment only after being fully convinced. During pre-treatment consultations, we dedicate sufficient time to respond carefully not only to your desires but also to your anxieties and questions.
Regarding Costs
Treatment costs will be explained in detail during the initial consultation. When there is a possibility of additional costs arising, we inform patients in advance, striving to ensure that treatment is received with full understanding and consent.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding costs, please feel free to inquire. We employ a transparent fee structure, allowing you to consider treatment with confidence.
Post-Treatment Follow-Up
At AVAN TOKYO, we provide careful explanations regarding post-treatment progress and support patients throughout their recovery period to ensure peace of mind. We have established a system that allows patients to consult with us at any time if concerns arise, and we value our relationship with patients even after treatment is completed.
