The cost of upper arm liposuction in South Korea typically ranges from $1,900 to $2,700. Prices vary depending on the clinic, the surgeon’s experience, and the amount of fat removed. Advanced techniques like VASER or laser-assisted liposuction may also affect the price. In the United States, the average cost is $7,500 (per ASPS). This means upper arm liposuction in South Korea is about 69% less than in the U.S.
South Korean clinics usually include the surgeon’s fee, local anesthesia or sedation, pre-op tests, compression garments, and basic follow-up visits in the total price. In the U.S., many of these items—like anesthesia, facility fees, and post-op garments—are often billed separately. Always confirm exactly what’s included with your chosen clinic.
