Additional Costs to Consider

Flights & Accommodation

Round-trip flights from most Asian cities: $200–$800. Budget hotels near Gangnam: $40–$80/night. Recovery-focused Airbnbs: $60–$120/night.

Extended Stay for Recovery

Most procedures require 7–14 days in Korea. Some revisions or combined procedures may need up to 3 weeks.

Medications & Aftercare Products

Some clinics charge extra for specialized scar care products, LED therapy sessions, or injectable treatments during recovery.

Revision or Touch-Up Fees

Minor revisions within the first year are often free or discounted at the original clinic. Ask about the revision policy before booking.

Translation & Coordination

Most top clinics include English coordinators for free, but independent medical translators cost $100–$200/day if needed.

Payment & Insurance

Payment Methods

Most clinics accept international credit cards (Visa, Mastercard), wire transfers, and cash (KRW). Some offer installment plans for larger procedures.

Insurance Coverage

Cosmetic surgery is generally not covered by insurance. However, functional procedures like septoplasty for breathing issues may qualify. Check with your provider.

Tax Refund (VAT)

International patients can receive a VAT refund on medical expenses at the airport. Keep all receipts and ask the clinic for the required tax refund documents.

Why Is Korea More Affordable?

Korean plastic surgery costs less not because of lower quality — it is because of high volume and competition. With over 600 plastic surgery clinics in Seoul alone, market competition keeps prices accessible while quality remains world-class.

Additionally, the Korean government actively supports medical tourism, and lower operating costs compared to the US mean savings are passed on to patients. Korean surgeons often perform more procedures in a year than their western counterparts do in a decade.
