How much does filler cost in Korea?
In Korea, an imported HA dermal filler such as Juvederm runs about ₩340,000–460,000 per 1cc — roughly $221–299 — at 2026 standard self-pay rates. Clinics price filler by product and volume, so a domestic HA filler like Neuramis or Chaeum starts lower, from ₩100,000 (~$65) per 1cc. Volume and collagen-stimulating options sit higher: a Juvelook volume booster is ₩128,000 per 1cc, and stimulators like Sculptra or Radiesse are priced per vial or syringe. VAT is already included in every figure, foreign patients pay the same standard rate as domestic patients, and Book Korea Medical adds no markup.
Filler prices in Korea
Standard self-pay ranges, VAT included. Filler is priced by product and volume, so the figure scales with the material used and how much your plan needs.
| Procedure | Range (KRW) | Approx. (USD) |
|---|---|---|
| HA filler 1cc (lip / chin / nose, e.g. Juvederm) | ₩340,000 – ₩460,000 | ~$221 – $299 |
| HA filler 1cc (domestic, e.g. Neuramis/Chaeum) | ₩100,000 – ₩220,000 | ~$65 – $143 |
| Volume booster 1cc (Juvelook volume) | ₩128,000 | ~$83 |
| Volume booster, 1 vial | ₩748,000 | ~$486 |
| Collagen stimulator, 1 vial (Sculptra) | ₩590,000 | ~$383 |
| Radiesse, 1 syringe | ₩990,000 | ~$643 |

What sets your filler price
Volume is the main driver. Filler is priced per cubic centimetre (cc), and clinics quote by how many cc your plan uses, so a single-cc lip touch-up and a multi-cc chin or nose plan sit at very different figures even at the same clinic. A correction with hyaluronidase, priced per cc at ₩69,000–89,000, may be added if a previous filler needs dissolving first.
The product tier matters next. An imported HA filler such as Juvederm at ₩340,000–460,000 per cc is priced above a domestic HA like Neuramis or Chaeum, which starts from ₩100,000. Volume boosters and collagen stimulators — a Juvelook volume booster at ₩128,000 per cc or ₩748,000 per vial, Sculptra at ₩590,000 per vial, Radiesse at ₩990,000 per syringe — are a different material class and are quoted per vial or syringe rather than per cc.
Because of this, the honest way to compare two quotes is to line up the exact product and the volume, not just the headline price. A clinic in a flagship district may also price above a regional average for the same plan. We send an itemized quote that lists the product and cc after a free consultation, so you are comparing like for like.
Imported vs domestic filler — is the gap worth it?
An imported HA filler such as Juvederm runs about ₩340,000–460,000 per cc, while a domestic HA like Neuramis or Chaeum starts from ₩100,000 for the same 1cc unit. Both are hyaluronic acid; the difference is the manufacturer and the specific product line, not a difference in whether it is filler.
Cheaper is not automatically better or worse: the right choice depends on the area, how much longevity and lift you want, and your tissue, not on price alone. A free consultation with a KHIDI-registered clinic will tell you whether an imported HA, a domestic HA, or a volume booster fits your case — and give you the exact price for each so the trade-off is clear before you decide.
VAT is included — and there is no refund in 2026
Every price above is VAT-inclusive: Korea's 10% value-added tax is already built into the standard self-pay rate.
The foreign-patient VAT refund on cosmetic and aesthetic procedures (Special Tax Treatment Control Act, Articles 107-3 and 107-4) expired on 31 December 2025 and was not extended for 2026. As of 2026 there is nothing to reclaim afterward on a procedure like this — the price you see is your effective, out-of-pocket cost. Be cautious of older listings that still promise a clinic VAT refund for cosmetic treatment.
FAQ
How much is dermal filler in Korea?
An imported HA filler such as Juvederm runs about ₩340,000–460,000 (~$221–299) per 1cc at 2026 standard self-pay rates, VAT included. A domestic HA like Neuramis or Chaeum starts from ₩100,000 per 1cc. Foreign patients pay the same standard rate, and we add no markup.
Why does filler price vary so much in Korea?
Because it is priced by product and volume. A domestic HA from ₩100,000 per cc and an imported HA at ₩340,000–460,000 per cc are different materials, and volume boosters or stimulators sit higher still. Comparing the exact product and cc, not just headline prices, is the only fair way to compare two quotes.
Is the filler price the same for foreign patients?
Yes. Foreign patients pay the same standard self-pay rate as domestic patients — for example ₩340,000–460,000 for imported HA 1cc, or from ₩100,000 for domestic HA. Book Korea Medical adds no markup, so the clinic's rate card is what you settle at the clinic after a free consultation.
Does the filler price include VAT, and can I get it refunded in 2026?
The 10% VAT is already included in the price. The foreign-patient VAT refund on cosmetic procedures expired on 31 December 2025 and does not apply in 2026, so there is nothing to reclaim afterward — the quoted figure is your effective, out-of-pocket cost.
How do I get an exact filler quote instead of a range?
Share your goal through a free consultation, and a KHIDI-registered clinic confirms the product and cc and issues an itemized written quote. That written figure — not this range — is the binding price, and Book Korea Medical adds no markup, so it is the amount you settle at the clinic.
