- Yumi Biotechnology (Shanghai) Ltd. representative

- Spa Wellness Japan Association member
Yumiko Yoshino boasts a 25-year-long career in the esthetic industry spanning salon management, salon operation, employee education, and technical instruction. After working as a music teacher, she married and gave childbirth, and was feeling troubled by her spoiled health and figure during parenting when she encountered esthetic care. Moved by the results—it restored her health and left her figure more toned than in her youth—Yoshino decided to deliver the magical experience of esthetic services to others, and opened the first Lunasia salon in Kyoto in 1995.
She established A.S. Company in 2003, and currently operates five salons in Kyoto and Osaka, where she focuses on fostering human resources and has produced many estheticians.
In a rare move in the esthetic industry, where services are generally performed by machine, Yoshino has compiled an original menu based on manual treatments, incorporating the approach and techniques of Eastern medicine and realizing not merely beauty on the surface but beauty that comes with good health. The methods she has developed for regaining the body’s overall balance and maintaining beautiful skin, posture, and figure include the Yumiko Slimming Method, established through 25 years of experience. Having treated a total of 250,000 customers in the course of her career, Yoshino continues to enjoy popularity.
In addition to salon management, she engages in the planning and sales of original products.
