KEIYU PLASTIC CLINIC

Keiyu Plastic Clinic is a dermatology and plastic surgery clinic in Edogawa, one of Tokyo’s eastern residential wards. It’s a bit off the typical expat trail compared to central Tokyo clinics, so you’ll likely be dealing with a predominantly Japanese-speaking environment. English is listed as basic, meaning staff can handle simple exchanges but don’t count on nuanced medical conversations without preparation. Bring written notes about your symptoms or condition, and consider using a translation app for anything complicated.

The clinic covers dermatology alongside plastic and cosmetic procedures, which is a common pairing in Japan. For straightforward skin concerns — rashes, acne, mole checks — the language barrier is manageable. For anything requiring detailed discussion about treatment options or risks, the communication gap will feel more significant.

There are currently no patient ratings on file, so there’s no crowd-sourced sense of the experience yet. The clinic has a website, which is worth checking before your visit to get a sense of services offered, though it’s likely in Japanese only.
