How Much Does Ultherapy Cost in Republic of Korea?

The cost of Ultherapy in South Korea typically ranges from $2,400 to $3,400. Prices depend on the area treated (full face, neck, or brow), the clinic, and the experience of the practitioner. In the United States, the average cost is $4,000 (according to the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery). That means Ultherapy in South Korea is about 28% less than in the U.S.

Most Korean clinics include the initial consultation, Ultherapy treatment using FDA-cleared devices, topical numbing, and a follow-up visit in the price. In the U.S., the listed price often covers only the procedure itself, with separate charges for consultations, numbing, and post-treatment care. Always confirm what’s included before booking your treatment.
