The cost of an arm lift (brachioplasty) in South Korea typically ranges from $2,000 to $4,800. Pricing varies depending on the clinic, the surgeon’s expertise, and the complexity of the lift (mini vs. extended). In the United States, the average cost is $11,000 (per ASPS). This means an arm lift in South Korea is about 69% less than in the U.S.
South Korean clinics usually include the initial consultation, pre-op blood tests, post-op medication, follow-up visits, and 24/7 patient support. Meals during clinic visits and personalized care plans are also standard. In the U.S., the price often covers only the surgeon’s fee, with anesthesia, hospital charges, and aftercare billed separately. Always confirm what’s included with your chosen clinic.
