Thermage is currently the anti-aging treatment with the highest number of inquiries in South Korea’s Dermatology clinics.

Practical Tips: How to Save Money and Avoid Mistakes When Undergoing Plastic Surgery in South Korea

  • When it comes to tax refunds, remember the following: In South Korea, the value-added tax rate is 10%. Foreigners who spend a certain amount can get a tax refund at the airport, which is equivalent to a 10% discount. Cosmetic procedures are generally eligible for tax refunds, so don’t forget to request the refund form on the spot.
  • Don’t easily believe in “special offers”: ridiculously low prices often indicate the use of counterfeit equipment, non-specialized doctors performing the procedures, or hidden fees that are added later during the treatment.
  • It is essential to have a in-person consultation before making a decision: Online consultations based on photographs can only provide a preliminary assessment. Once a doctor sees the actual structure of the facial bones, the thickness of the skin, and the condition of the muscles, the recommended treatment plan often differs significantly from what was estimated online.
  • Discounts are available for surgeries performed during the same period: Most clinics offer combined discounts to patients who undergo multiple procedures at one time, typically ranging from 10% to 20%. Please inquire during your in-person consultation.
  • Reservations through BeautsGO can help you avoid overseas price surcharges: Some clinics charge additional fees to foreign patients who come directly in person; by making reservations through this platform, you can ensure that the prices remain the same as those in Korea.

💜 BeautsGO offers free consultations on plastic surgery costs in South Korea.

Summary

After reviewing this price list, there are several points that deserve special attention:

  • The same treatment can vary by 2 to 3 times depending on the clinic; therefore, it is hardly meaningful to rely solely on the prices advertised.
  • In South Korea, the medical consumption tax is 10%, and the final amount to be paid is added to the initial quoted price.
  • For photoelectric treatments such as Thermage/HIFU, it is sufficient to undergo them once a year; excessive frequent treatments can actually cause damage to the skin.
  • When choosing a clinic for surgical procedures, safety credentials should come first, followed by brand reputation, and then price.
  • The effect of injectable treatments lasts for a limited period (6–18 months for Filler and 3–6 months for botulinum toxin). Regular re-injections are required to maintain the results.

If you are considering undergoing plastic surgery in South Korea, it is recommended that you first submit your inquiries through BeautsGO. A Chinese consultant will help you select the appropriate clinic and procedure based on your specific needs and budget, before you decide whether to travel there for a face-to-face consultation. This approach saves both time and effort and helps you avoid potential pitfalls.
