CLASS CLINIC, led by Dr. Shigeru Matsumoto, M.D., Ph.D., director and a distinguished expert in plastic surgery, is Asia’s premier specialized clinic—the top destination—for cosmetic medicine. The clinic offers the best hospitality with full privacy and treatments of unmatched medical standards.

At the heart of CLASS CLINIC’s philosophy is Dr. Matsumoto’s philosophy, “Mastering cosmetic surgery demands deep knowledge, refined techniques, and extensive experience.” This principle is evident in every aspect of the clinic’s operation, from the carefully curated treatment offerings to the thoughtful approach to patient privacy and comfort.

Blending Artistry and Precision

Dr. Matsumoto is a leading figure in the plastic and cosmetic surgery fields, blending profound expertise with innovative leadership. His roles span leading a major university hospital’s plastic surgery department to directing a premier cosmetic surgery clinic. In 2023, a prominent American magazine named him one of Japan’s top five plastic surgeons, highlighting a key milestone in his distinguished career.

Dr. Matsumoto’s scholarly achievements are equally notable. He holds a doctorate in regenerative medicine, and his pioneering research was featured on the cover of a prestigious academic journal. This academic competency highlights his capability to safely execute complex corrective surgeries.

Renowned across Asia for his expertise in rhinoplasty, Dr. Matsumoto is frequently sought after for his skill and knowledge. His extensive experience in reconstructive techniques makes him a preferred specialist for challenging salvage surgeries, where he expertly restores form and function with remarkable finesse.

Beyond his technical acumen, Dr. Matsumoto brings an artistic sensibility to his work, a legacy of his family’s rich background in the Japanese arts.

Trained by his grandfather, a neurosurgeon, and his father, an orthopedic surgeon, he has developed a unique surgical approach combining artistry and precision. This heritage informs his technique, allowing him to craft results that are functional and aesthetically exquisite.

A Comprehensive Approach to Cosmetic Surgery

Dr. Matsumoto’s approach to revision surgery emphasizes critical risk avoidance. With his extensive experience, he adeptly addresses complex surgical challenges such as skin necrosis and contracture. At the heart of his practice lies a commitment to clear communication during consultations, ensuring that each patient fully understands the associated risks. His profound knowledge guarantees outcomes that not only meet but exceed patient expectations.

Dr. Matsumoto’s mastery of cosmetic surgery is particularly evident in his approach to facial aesthetics, which hinges on the delicate balance of features. He skillfully manipulates contrasts—such as the interplay between light and shadow—to sculpt the desired appearance, achieving a harmonious blend that resonates with the individual’s aspirations. His innovative techniques have attracted his peers’ attention and made him a sought-after specialist for complex corrective procedures. Unlike clinics that concentrate on isolated features, CLASS CLINIC advocates for a holistic approach to facial harmony, meticulously tailoring interventions to ensure the realization of patients’ dream looks.

The use of 3D simulation technology at CLASS CLINIC further exemplifies their forward-thinking approach, bridging the gap between patient expectations and surgical outcomes. This tool is crucial in fostering a mutual understanding of aesthetic goals, thus significantly boosting post-surgical satisfaction by aligning detailed anticipations with achievable results.

The clinic collaborates closely with university hospitals, enriching their collective expertise through educational exchanges.
