  • Johoku Sakura Clinic is a dermatology practice in Nerima, a residential ward in northwest Tokyo that’s quieter and more suburban than central areas. Getting here typically means riding one of the Seibu or Toei lines, so factor in travel time if you’re coming from central Tokyo.

    The clinic focuses exclusively on dermatology, covering common concerns like acne, eczema, rashes, and skin allergies, as well as cosmetic treatments. As a neighborhood clinic, it tends to serve local patients rather than functioning as a specialist referral center.
