Following the Nagoya Opening on August 22, the Brand Enters the Kansai Region for the First Time, Bringing "Accessible Trend Beauty" to Kobe
IRVINE, Calif. -- SBC Medical Group Holdings, Inc. ("SBC"), a Medical Services Organization that provides management support to medical institutions in Japan and overseas, today announced that NEO Skin Clinic Kobe will open on Saturday, August 29, 2026, in the Sannomiya area of Chuo-ku, Kobe. The clinic is the fourth location for NEO Skin Clinic, an aesthetic dermatology brand built on the concept of "accessible trend beauty, bringing the skin care trending in Korea closer to home."
Aesthetic dermatology is a field in which new treatment devices and pharmaceuticals appear in rapid succession and trends shift quickly. NEO Skin Clinic offers more than 50 treatment options using the latest devices from Japan and Korea, and updates its lineup on an ongoing basis. At a free consultation, the VISIA skin analysis system is used to quantify the condition of the skin, and a physician then proposes a customized treatment plan that also reflects the customer's own preferences.
Following Ebisu, Ginza and Nagoya, the Kobe clinic is the brand's fourth location and its first in the Kansai region. It is a one-minute walk from West Exit 3 of Sannomiya Station on the Kobe Municipal Subway Seishin-Yamate Line, and within a five-minute walk of the Hankyu, JR and Hanshin lines. Situated at the center of the Sannomiya area, where four railway lines converge, the clinic is easy to visit between work or shopping. Skin care programs are generally carried out over a series of visits, and a location that is convenient to reach is one factor that supports continuing that routine.
To mark the opening, the clinic will run an opening campaign from Saturday, August 29, 2026 through Saturday, November 28, 2026. Details of the treatments covered and their prices are available on the official website below.
