Who writes this site
ClinicJapan is produced by a small editorial team under a published policy, with site-level medical review by a board-certified dermatologist. We name the people responsible because a site making claims about medical procedures should be accountable for them.
Editor-in-Chief
| Role | Editor-in-Chief, ClinicJapan · CEO, RiskIntel Corp |
| Background | Digital marketing and booking-SaaS development for foreign patients in the Korean aesthetic medicine industry |
| Responsible for | Editorial policy, quality standards, final review of published content |
| JIMCA | Individual member since April 2026 — the first in the aesthetic medicine category |
Ham Jian founded ClinicJapan in March 2026 after working inside the Korean aesthetic medicine industry, where the shortage of neutral information for patients — domestic and foreign alike — was a recurring problem rather than an occasional one. Full profile.
Medical review
| Credentials | Board-certified dermatologist, Japanese Dermatological Association |
| Role | Site-level review of medical information policy and editorial quality standards |
| Since | April 2026 |
| Scope limit | Policy and standards, not individual article sign-off |
| Independence | No financial relationship with any clinic covered on this site |
We are deliberate about this boundary. Claiming per-article physician review when what exists is policy-level review would be the kind of overstatement this site was built to avoid. Our about page sets out exactly what the review covers.
Research and writing
Research and writing team. Systematic primary-source research — PubMed-indexed literature, PMDA documentation, Ministry of Health guidance, and Japanese specialist society materials — plus drafting and fact-checking. Price data is compiled and updated from clinics' own published fee schedules.
Translation and international team. Production of both the English site and the Japanese site at clinicjapan.net/ja/, keeping terminology and claims consistent across languages and within Japanese medical advertising rules.
