The cost of chin implant surgery in South Korea typically ranges from $7,000 to $7,000. Pricing varies depending on the clinic, the surgeon’s expertise, and implant material (silicone vs. porous polyethylene). The complexity of reshaping or combining with other facial procedures also affects the final cost. In the United States, the average price is $6,500 (per ASPS).
