I really hope somebody can help me out here!
I'm looking for recommendations on where to go for very basic dermatology needs in Osaka city. I've been searching like crazy on Google, but a lot of the places near my apartment have no reviews and the outsides look fairly shady and old, and while I know you can't judge a book by its cover, I'm willing to travel a bit to go somewhere good. I can speak fairly fluent Japanese, so that's not a problem, but I'm having a hard time finding places that focus more on acne/rosacea and not aging problems.
I know from experience that what I need is a line of antibiotics, but I don't know how they treat these sorts of things here. Has anybody had any experience with going to a dermatologist in Japan? I don't want or need lasers or anything fancy like that (the big hospital near my house has a dermatology department, and the ONLY thing their website mentioned was laser surgery T-T) but just somebody to look at my skin, listen to what I've taken before with success, and try and find an equivalent course of therapy.
Thanks for any advice! Oh, and I live in south Osaka city, but I work all over Osaka so there really isn't any place in the city that I'd consider far. :)
