The cost of non-surgical nose correction in South Korea typically ranges from $200 to $400. Prices vary based on the filler type (hyaluronic acid or calcium hydroxyapatite), the clinic’s reputation, and the injector’s experience. In the United States, the average price is $1,900 (according to ASPS). This means non-surgical nose correction in South Korea is about 84% less than in the U.S.
Korean clinics usually include a consultation, local anesthesia, premium dermal fillers, and a follow-up visit in the price. In the U.S., the price may only cover the filler and injection, with consultation and touch-ups billed separately. Always confirm exactly what’s included before booking your procedure.
