Birth Date:
Born in 1964 in Gotsu City, Shimane Prefecture, Japan.
Background / Biography:
To help others in the medical field, I worked in a pharmacy and opened a Chinese herbal pharmacy in 1993 at the age of 29. “Why is the skin of women who buy expensive beauty creams every month not necessarily beautiful?” This question at that time was the starting point of Dr.Recella. I started my own cosmetics company in 2000. In the process, I learned about the fear of "petroleum-based synthetic surfactants" and their impacts on the global environment.The truth that is not reported in the mass media, and now that I know it, I must tell it...
Since then, I made it my mission to provide safe and result oriented products to our customers for more than 20 years, and our products are now handled by more than 3,000 esthetic salons.

Goals as president
I started a cosmetics company in 2000. I learned the horror of "petroleum-based synthetic surfactants" and their impact on the global environment. I believe now I have two missions:the first mission is to contribute to beauty, health, and global environmental issues by communicating these facts to the world. The second mission is to develop human resources with the same values and mission. I hope to increase the number of such people who "prioritize the joy of others and feel it as their own joy. Dr. Recella Group employees and their families feel happiness. I hope that the happiness of Dr. Recella Group employees and their families will spread to our customers and business partners.
