How Much Does Reverse Tummy Tuck Cost in Republic of Korea?
Reverse Tummy Tuck in the Republic of Korea typically costs from $5,500 to $8,500. Final pricing depends on skin laxity, muscle repair needs, and the choice of clinic tier in hubs like Seoul and Incheon. Patients save approximately 39% compared to the US, where the average cost is $11,500. Standard inclusions often feature surgeon fees, anesthesia, and initial post-operative garments.
- Upper abdominal contouring: Standard approach addresses skin laxity between the breasts and belly button.
- Gangnam district premium: Clinics in Seoul’s central medical hub may charge 15-20% more for high-end infrastructure.
- Combined procedures: Adding liposuction or breast lifting typically increases total package costs significantly.
- Regional variations: Facilities in Incheon or regional cities often provide more competitive rates than Seoul.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Korea offers exceptional value for body contouring due to specialized surgical infrastructure. Facilities like Banobagi Clinic use advanced laser and ultrasound liposuction devices to enhance results. For international patients, Gangnam Severance Hospital provides JCI-accredited safety and free interpreter services for larger procedures. Choosing clinics with dedicated anesthesiologists and on-site labs ensures higher safety standards during complex upper-torso surgery.

Everything was very smooth
Everything was very smooth. The Bookimed coordinator, Tatyana, was very informative, present, and patient; she did her best to reassure me and answer all my questions. I am still in early recovery from my revision rhinoplasty, but I'm feeling better than expected. The main issue was correcting a crooked nose but I also had a septoplasty for better breathing and a tip plasty for cosmetic reasons. The surgeon who personally handled my consultation and surgery took the time to explain what went wrong with my previous procedure and was honest about what realistic results I could expect. Aftercare has been good. The clinic has stayed in touch, provided a clear aftercare guide, and is easy to reach. There were also no additional expenses on top of what I paid the clinic. My advice for anyone considering this is to always ask if they can provide free accommodation. One last thing, massive thank you to Gia for translating everything and looking after me.

I can confidently recommend it to anyone planning to have moles, growths or other unwanted skin lesions removed
I am very pleased with Bookimed’s service. A coordinator supported me over several months, helping me choose a clinic.
That’s how we chose Saero Clinic in Seoul. Before the operation, I had a video consultation with the doctors, during which we discussed all the details at length.The clinic itself turned out to be modern and comfortable, and the staff were very attentive and friendly.
The operation went smoothly, and afterwards I attended regular check-ups to monitor the healing process. I went to this clinic to have a growth removed from my face and was very pleased with the result. I can confidently recommend it to anyone planning to have moles, growths or other unwanted skin lesions removed.

The experience for me, in general, was excellent, I would go back to the Dr
I was very pleased with the attention I received from the first day I arrived at the clinic. The interpreter was able to communicate perfectly to the surgeon what I wanted to be done and what my expectations were.
I loved the hospitality of the Medical Team, all very attentive, very concerned about whether I was feeling well or not, reminding me of my check-ups, cleaning, suture removal, giving me all the information for the post-operative period, giving me light and oxygen therapy sessions to improve and accelerate the results of my recovery. The clinic is located in a very central place in Gangnam, it is easy to get there. It is very close to the flat that the clinic provides during your stay until the first check-up. The clinic is spacious, well-lit, very clean, with flexible opening hours for post-operative care. The real estate is very comfortable, they have coffee and tea so that you can help yourself. And, they don't keep you waiting. Everything works as scheduled. And, additionally, they provided me with help on how to get around the city, how to get to the tourist attractions, to the shops where they sell skin care products, etc. The experience for me, in general, was excellent, I would go back to the Dr. and I recommend him 100% to those people who are looking for a good clinic where they can have surgery with the full confidence that everything will go very well.
About Bookimed service
Bookimed made it easy for me to have a person who speaks my language to assist me whenever I had questions about the different alternatives of plastic surgery clinics that I could ask to evaluate me and give me a quote. When I had already decided on the clinic I wanted to go to, the person who assisted me very kindly answered all the questions I had after I had made my choice. She sent me all the information I asked for about the clinic, the background of the Dr. who was going to operate on me, health permits, health registration of the Dr., validity of his professional title, etc. Everything I needed to make sure I made a very informed decision and knew everything about the clinic, the Dr, the place where I would be operated on, where the clinic was located, where I would be staying from the day of the surgery until a week later and, obviously, how much I was going to be charged.
There was only one difference with respect to the initial budget, but it was because once I was in the clinic I added a part of my face that had not been contemplated before. But even so, the final price did not increase too much compared to what I was charged at other clinics in South Korea.

I am very grateful for the professionalism and care shown
My surgeon clearly explaining the deep plane technique and being very honest about realistic results for my age. He even checked on me personally after the procedure. This level of care reflected my entire journey, which my coordinator Olha helped make smooth and stress-free. She assisted in choosing the right surgeon in Korea and organized everything. The VG Plastic team genuinely took the time to understand my circumstances and wishes, tailoring arrangements to my needs. The treatment covered my face, neck, and eyelids, and I am feeling better than expected at this stage. The clinic remains easy to reach, stayed in touch, and provided a clear aftercare guide. Importantly, there were no additional expenses. I am very grateful for the professionalism and care shown.

I would highly recommend this clinic for its quality service and professionalism
I am very pleased with my choice of this clinic. From the very beginning the communication with the clinic staff was fast and of high quality. I chose from 3 clinics. It was in this clinic that I got the best price and quality service before and after the procedure.
I had a second rhinoplasty. The doctor did just a jewellery work with my nose. Very carefully, without much interference, he corrected the flaws from the first surgery I had a couple of years ago in Turkey. I am very happy with the result. My nose is now straight and neat. I was also very pleased with the service at the clinic after the operation. I had all the necessary procedures to reduce the swelling immediately after the operation and then during the week I still came a couple of times for procedures, so the recovery took literally a week. Special thanks to the assistant Joan. She was always in touch and very supportive throughout my stay in Korea. I would highly recommend this clinic for its quality service and professionalism.

By far the most attentive care I have EVER gotten in medicine—again, thanks especially to Joanne, who even walked me back to my hotel across the street post-op
One would fear that flying to a foreign country where you don’t know the language would be stressful and scary. Not only did the staff (Joanne <3!) make that all a cakewalk, the clinic’s aftercare was top notch, they really went above and beyond for me. And I am NOT an easy patient—I need to know every chemical in the anesthesia, I negotiate different antibiotics, make them go over my 21 daily supplements, etc—I kept them BUSY and was shown nothing but continual grace and warmth, and was always responded to promptly. By far the most attentive care I have EVER gotten in medicine—again, thanks especially to Joanne, who even walked me back to my hotel across the street post op. As for the surgery outcome, I didn’t even need a Tylenol it was that painless, I was able to walk around and enjoy Seoul every day after my mini lift, and although I’m still swollen at just under two weeks out, I already look ten years younger and am loving what I’m seeing. Dr. Park knows what he is doing, he’s done 3000+ facelifts (yes I asked), he has superb attention to detail, a true artist’s hand, and is a friendly and gentlemanly doctor!

I give Saero Plastic Surgery a 5 because they exceeded my expectations
Dr. Pak is very knowledgeable and professional. It has been over a week sonce my surgery and see.s that everything is healing well. He prescribed a pack of antibiotics and pain killers for me to take for 5 days. The medication worked great because I was at a very minimal pain.
His staff walked me through everything I needed from the US to Korea. I felt confident that I was in good hands and I was. The interpreter did a great good Interpreting everything I needed to ask the doctor and addressed all my concerns.
I give Saero Plastic Surgery a 5 because they exceeded my expectations. Definitely recommend to everyone.

Seeing the computer imaging of my expected result during the consultation was a key moment
Seeing the computer imaging of my expected result during the consultation was a key moment. The surgeon was direct and honest about what was realistic, and I appreciated that he personally handled both the consultation and the open rhinoplasty surgery for my full nose reshaping. The clinic staff has been easy to reach, and their aftercare guide is clear. I’m still healing. Be prepared for additional expenses like Ubers, hotel, recommended post-op meds, and lots of supplies like gauze, tape, and dry mouth spray. My advice for others is to bring a guardian; the first 3 days are very difficult and you will need help. Also, make sure to coordinate your arrival and departure dates so you don't leave before all your post-op care is finished.
The entire process was very organized, efficient and full of all necessary details. Communication responses are quick. Questions are answered with details and lots of backup information. The coordination between ALL the different departments is fantastic. The Clinic is immaculate. The Doctor is so professional and experienced and he has empathy and confidence. Top-notch all-around. And the Clinic is in a very good location. Everyone makes you feel like you matter and they want to make sure you feel happy and satisfied throughout the entire process.
The only thing is to just communicate more the post-op care during the initial phase. That it’s important to not book a flight home too soon after surgery. And that departure is coordinated based upon the surgery type. Also, a “care” bag that includes an emollient lip balm and dry mouth spray, as well as the gauze and tape needed for rhinoplasty. Having these things would help sooooo much with the recovery. My daughter had to go and buy these things separately and I suffered the first night until she was able to buy these items for me. Other than that —- everything else was just great

The competence, careful attitude and attention to every little detail is what I really liked
I would like to thank my doctor for his careful attention to my difficult situation. The competence, careful attitude and attention to every little detail is what I really liked. Now I am still recovering and the final result is still far away, but I believe that everything will be fine. I would like to mention my coordinator-translator Jena. She is a very nice girl who helped me during my stay. Kind, nice, responsible and competent. She made me feel very comfortable. Thank you very much to the doctor, Jena and the clinic staff for everything. I will definitely recommend to my friends.

Now two months after surgery, I am quite happy with the shape of my new eyelids
The medical team members are so friendly and helpful. Although I speak zero Korean, I can sense their passion and empathy, which dramatically reduced my anxiety to go through the surgery. They are very supportive from the right beginning to the end when I left Seoul. And big thanks to the assistance from Yena, who provides detailed before and after care instructions rather than just working as an interpreter.
Now two months after surgery, I am quite happy with the shape of my new eyelids. They look much younger and alert.

For anyone else considering this, I would suggest looking into this clinic first before exploring other options
My main concern was hidden costs, but there were no additional expenses. Before the procedure, my surgeon carefully examined my eye structure and explained why the transcutaneous technique was the right choice for me. This involved an external incision below the lashes. It's still too early to tell what the final outcome will be. The clinic has been easy to reach with any questions I have had so far. For anyone else considering this, I would suggest looking into this clinic first before exploring other options.

Honestly, everything was beyond perfect—the doctor’s professional treatment and the dedicated team left me speechless
He is one of the most skilled and precise doctors I have met, and the entire team was just wonderful. I was asked what could be better, and honestly, everything was beyond perfect—the doctor’s professional treatment and the dedicated team left me speechless. What stood out was how carefully he measured and marked everything before the surgery, which was very reassuring. There were no additional expenses on top of the quoted price. My main advice is that you can absolutely trust the doctor and his team.
One of the best, most skilled, precise, and outstanding doctors I have ever met. The treatment, care, and entire staff were excellent and wonderful. I highly recommend him!

It’s been reassuring how the clinic has stayed in touch and been easy to reach
Since you were asking about my experience, here are a few things to know. The procedure was for both my upper and lower eyelids, performed with the traditional scalpel technique. I’m still in early recovery, but I feel better than I thought I would. It’s been reassuring how the clinic has stayed in touch and been easy to reach. Everything was included in the price. The one thing I'd suggest, especially for non-Korean patients, is to make a list and ask every single question you have before arrival.

The surgeon and staff were excellent throughout
My biggest worry going into this was how visible the scars would be after my lower eyelid correction. Even though I’m still in the early stages of healing, the traditional incision lines are already barely noticeable, which is a huge relief. The surgeon and staff were excellent throughout. Based on the care I received and the initial results, I am very pleased with my choice of clinic. Gia my coordinator was lovely and very helpful. Huge thank you to all the medical, nursing and admin staff. 🙏🙏🙏🫰🫰

So far, my recovery is going better than expected
My main concern was the surgeon's skill, but it was unfounded. The location is ideally placed in Seoul, with friendly, helpful, and kind staff. My surgeon was patient and experienced, performing a deep plane facelift on my full face and neck. So far, my recovery is going better than expected. I valued the post-op healing services like red light therapy and the optional HBOT treatments. The clinic provided a clear aftercare guide, stayed in touch, and has been consistently easy to reach.
