The cost of scar revision in South Korea typically ranges from $300 to $2,000. Prices vary depending on the type of scar (surgical, acne, keloid), the chosen technique (excision, laser, dermabrasion), the clinic, and the surgeon’s expertise. In the United States, the average cost is $5,800 (per ASPS). Scar revision in South Korea is about 79% less expensive than in the U.S.
South Korean clinics usually include the initial consultation, pre-op skin assessment, the revision procedure (excision, laser, or other), local anesthesia, and follow-up visits. Medications and aftercare supplies are often part of the package. In the U.S., the quoted price may only cover the surgeon’s fee, with anesthesia, facility charges, and follow-ups billed separately. Always confirm exactly what’s included with each clinic.
