MICHIKO at GLOWderma 2026: A Top 50 Master Clinic Milestone
Join Dr. Gift and Sirinrada at GLOWderma by Galderma in Bangkok: a shared award moment, the people behind MICHIKO and a clearer conversation about skin quality.
A moment on the event floor. A milestone for the team behind MICHIKO. On 3 November 2026, MICHIKO Aesthetics & Wellness received Top 50 Master Clinic 2026 recognition at GLOWderma by Galderma, held at Fashion Hall, Level 1, Siam Paragon, Bangkok. Dr. Wisuttiya Boonsom, known as Dr. Gift, and Sirinrada Laungwattanawanich, MICHIKO’s co-founder and chief executive, attended together to represent the clinic.
The award photograph captures a simple moment: the two founders standing side by side, holding the Master Clinic 2026 award beneath MICHIKO’s name. For our team, it is a chance to pause, celebrate a shared milestone and thank the people who have made MICHIKO part of their care.
A shared moment for MICHIKO’s founders
Dr. Gift and Sirinrada bring different perspectives to the same clinic. As Medical Director and Co-Founder, Dr. Gift leads the medical team. Sirinrada, also known as Khun King, leads the business and the experience that surrounds each visit. Their partnership connects clinical assessment with the practical details of being welcomed, heard and guided through a decision.
That relationship sits at the heart of MICHIKO’s approach. A question about skin is rarely just a question about a product. Someone may want to understand a change they have noticed, revisit a previous treatment or simply find out which options are worth discussing. The starting point is a conversation about the individual.
At the event, the founders’ silver and burgundy outfits echoed the clinic’s own visual identity. The photographs feel unmistakably MICHIKO: a shared celebration, a familiar partnership and the clinic’s name in the background. The recognition belongs to the wider team, too, whose everyday work makes each visit possible.
Inside GLOWderma by Galderma 2026
GLOWderma brought the subject of skin quality into the centre of the event. The displays featured the Master Clinic 2026 programme alongside Galderma’s Sculptra and Restylane Skinboosters brands. MICHIKO’s name appeared among the participating clinics on the event display, while the founders’ photographs recorded their time at the award presentation and exhibition areas.
The short film below brings those details together: the clinic display, the GLOWderma backdrop and a glimpse of the presentation on stage. It offers a closer sense of the occasion than an award photograph alone, while keeping the event in its original setting.
For MICHIKO, being recognised among the Top 50 Master Clinics is a meaningful occasion to celebrate. It is also an opportunity to bring the conversation back to the people who visit the clinic: what does skin quality mean for you, and how can different approaches be explained clearly?
The MICHIKO story continues in Bangkok
Our clinics at Phahonyothin 21 and EmSphere bring the same MICHIKO approach to two Bangkok locations. The setting may be different, but the intention is consistent: give people room to describe their concerns, ask questions and understand a proposed plan before deciding whether to proceed.
A thoughtful consultation should make the reasoning easier to follow. What is the concern? What could a treatment realistically address? What are its limitations, risks and alternatives? How will the response be reviewed? Recognition at an industry event does not replace those questions, and an award is not a promise of an individual result.
We are grateful to everyone who has placed their trust in MICHIKO. As we mark this milestone, our focus remains on the relationship between the medical team and the person in front of them. Explore our founders, medical team and approach to care, or find your preferred MICHIKO Bangkok branch.
From the event to a clearer conversation about skin quality
The Galderma displays provide a useful starting point for explaining two different treatment approaches. Skin quality can involve concerns such as hydration, texture and fine lines; a consultation helps clarify which concerns matter in an individual case. A familiar brand name should support that discussion, rather than decide the treatment for you.
Sculptra and Restylane Skinboosters have different materials and treatment goals. The sections below explain those differences in general terms, with links to product information and MICHIKO’s existing treatment guides. The choice of any injectable still requires a medical assessment and the information applicable to the exact product used in Thailand.
Sculptra and Restylane Skinboosters: what is the difference?
Sculptra stimulates collagen production, while Restylane Skinboosters uses hyaluronic acid to support hydration and skin quality. They have different roles. Choosing between them, combining them or considering another approach depends on a medical assessment.
| Comparison | Sculptra | Restylane Skinboosters |
|---|---|---|
| Key material | Poly-L-lactic acid, or PLLA | Hyaluronic acid, or HA |
| Main role | Collagen stimulation | Hydration and skin-quality improvement |
| What to understand | Changes develop gradually; early fullness is not the final result | The treatment goal differs from filler used to reshape facial contours |
| Planning | Suitability, product selection, sessions and follow-up are individual | |
What is Sculptra?
Sculptra is an injectable containing poly-L-lactic acid that stimulates collagen production. A doctor may consider it for appropriate facial wrinkles and tissue changes, taking the treatment area and applicable product information into account.
Its effect develops gradually. Fullness immediately after treatment can reflect preparation fluid and swelling, so it should not be treated as the finished result. Follow-up helps assess the response over time.

What is Restylane Skinboosters?
Restylane Skinboosters contains hyaluronic acid, which binds water. It is used to support hydration and improve aspects of skin quality, including smoothness, elasticity and fine lines, depending on the product and treatment area.
Although some facial fillers also contain HA, their purpose and treatment approach can differ. “Skin booster” is a broad category covering different products. This article refers specifically to Galderma’s Restylane Skinboosters.

What should you discuss before treatment?
Tell your doctor about allergies, medical conditions, medicines, previous injectables and raised scars, as well as pregnancy, plans to become pregnant or breastfeeding. Safety in pregnancy and breastfeeding has not been established for these products.
Swelling, redness, tenderness and bruising may occur. Lumps and infection are also possible. Accidental injection into a blood vessel can cause serious complications, including tissue damage or visual problems. Unusual pain, skin blanching or changes in vision during or after treatment need immediate medical assessment.
Choose a trained doctor and follow product-specific aftercare. Indications and precautions vary by formulation and country; treatment in Thailand should follow the applicable local product information.
Frequently asked questions
What award did MICHIKO receive at GLOWderma 2026?
MICHIKO Aesthetics & Wellness received a Top 50 Master Clinic 2026 award at GLOWderma by Galderma, held at Siam Paragon in Bangkok on 3 November 2026.
Which is more relevant for dehydrated skin?
If hydration is your main concern, Restylane Skinboosters may be an option to discuss with your doctor. Sculptra primarily stimulates collagen. Your assessment should determine which approach, if any, fits your skin.
Does Sculptra work immediately?
No. Collagen-related changes develop gradually. Early fullness or swelling does not represent the long-term result.
Do I need both treatments?
No. A doctor may recommend one, a combination or a different approach. There is no single treatment plan that suits everyone.
Does the award guarantee treatment results?
No. An award does not guarantee an individual outcome. Product suitability, medical history, clinical assessment and follow-up remain central to the decision.
