What Skin Treatments Cost in Gangnam for Visitors: 14 Clinics Compared on Starting Price, Span and Stated Dose
Published Gangnam prices are real. They are starting prices: for a unit, a starting quantity or a trial. Across the 138 non-surgical listings published by the fourteen Gangnam and Seocho clinics on K-Beauty Station, toxin starts at ₩10,890, lifting devices at ₩27,000 and skin boosters at ₩49,000. The same lifting devices run to ₩2,200,000 for a full-face course. One clinic shows nearly the whole span on its own page: GU Clinic Gangnam Branch publishes eight listings from ₩29,000 to ₩1,990,000.
One number explains all of it: only 44 of those 138 listings state a quantity, and the other 94 do not. No shots, no cc, no joules. The bill is set by how many units the consultation decides you need, and in seven listings out of ten that number is absent from the price you are reading. This guide reads the bands treatment by treatment, names all fourteen clinics with their span and stated-dose count, then prices the same nine devices clinic by clinic. Which clinic is open when: Gangnam skin clinics compared.
Price bands by treatment type
All figures below are published listings at the fourteen Gangnam-gu and Seocho-gu clinics on K-Beauty Station, read on 16 September 2026. Categories are assigned by what the listing treats. The counts add to 138.
| Treatment type | Listings | Lowest published | Where that price is listed | Highest published | Where that price is listed | The unit | What moves the bill |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| HIFU / RF / ultrasound lifting | 48 | ₩27,000 | Abijou Clinic Gangnam (“Abijou Lifting”) | ₩2,200,000 | Reverse Clinic Gangnam (Thermage FLX 600 shots) | Shots, pulses or joules | Shot count; device generation; full face vs partial |
| Skin booster / regenerative injectable | 26 | ₩49,000 | GU Clinic Gangnam Branch (ulblanc Skin Booster Infusion) | ₩770,000 | CELLIN Clinic Gangnam (NovaStem) | Per cc or per vial | Volume; number of sessions in a course |
| Multi-device package | 18 | ₩8,900 | Reverse Clinic Gangnam (special-offer event) | ₩1,790,000 | UH CELL Clinic Gangnam (Titanium 80kJ + Ulthera Prime 300S) | The package | What is bundled; number of visits |
| Contouring / slimming injection | 14 | ₩30,000 | Abijou Clinic Gangnam (Slimming & Contouring) | ₩429,000 | ZERO Clinic (ZEROTHIN Injection) | Per area or per cc | Areas; combination packages |
| Botulinum toxin | 9 | ₩10,890 (event) · ₩15,000 standing | SECRET CLINIC (event) · Abijou Clinic Gangnam (standing) | ₩132,000 | Reverse Clinic Gangnam (Body Slim Tox) | Area or units | Number of areas; brand; touch-up policy |
| Skin-care programme / peel | 7 | ₩19,800 | SECRET CLINIC (Aqua Peel / Toning / IV Care deal) | ₩619,000 | GD Clinic (LHALA Peel + Exosome + Sylfirm X + Cielo) | Per session | Add-on modalities (LDM, oxygen, exosome) |
| Filler / volumiser | 6 | ₩70,000 | DIORE Clinic (Diore Filler) | ₩1,375,000 | Allliting Plastic Surgery (Radiesse 4.5cc) | Per cc or per syringe | Volume; product brand |
| Pigment laser / toning | 5 | ₩19,000 | Abijou Clinic Gangnam (Abijou Skin Laser) | ₩550,000 | Reverse Clinic Gangnam (Primelase) | Per session or shot count | Sessions in a course; add-on masks |
| IV / infusion therapy | 3 | ₩44,000 | GD Clinic (Energy Recovery Therapy) | ₩77,000 | GD Clinic (Diet Slimming IV Therapy) | Per drip | Formula; add-on vitamins |
| Thread lifting | 2 | ₩50,000 | DIORE Clinic (Thread Lifting) | ₩55,000 | HYUNDAIMIHAK Plastic Surgery (Tightening Thread Lift) | Per thread | Thread count; thread type |
- Lifting has the widest band in won of the ten categories above — ₩27,000 to ₩2,200,000, a gap of ₩2,173,000 inside one treatment type. Measured as a ratio rather than a gap, the multi-device row is wider still at 201x (₩8,900 to ₩1,790,000), because its floor is an unnamed event price. Lifting is also the largest category, 48 of 138 listings.
- The floor is flat. Eight of the ten categories start under ₩50,000; only filler (₩70,000) and thread lifting (₩50,000) do not. The entry price is not where clinics compete for margin. The quantity is.
- The thread-lifting row has only two listings, so treat its band as a sample of two, not a market rate. The same caution applies to the three IV listings, all from one clinic.
The 14 clinics compared: span, stated dose, rating
These are every Gangnam-gu and Seocho-gu clinic on K-Beauty Station whose published menu is entirely non-surgical. Clinics that publish surgery alongside skin treatments are excluded. The bands above therefore describe clinics you would visit for skin alone.
This is a different set from the platform’s own 12 Gangnam skin clinics, and the two do not line up in either direction. Selection here is by address district and by menu, not by the platform’s category and area tags, so it takes in two clinics filed under Plastic Surgery whose published menu is nonetheless entirely non-surgical (Allliting Plastic Surgery, HYUNDAIMIHAK Plastic Surgery) and two filed under the Garosu-gil area rather than Gangnam (ZERO Clinic, HYUNDAIMIHAK). It leaves out one clinic the platform does file as a Gangnam skin clinic: Le Well Clinic publishes no street address, so it cannot be placed in either district and is not counted here — its three listings, ₩780,000 to ₩5,850,000, are all non-surgical. Every price and count on this page, the ₩2,200,000 top of the lifting band included, is therefore the figure for the 14 clinics below and not for the platform’s twelve. Ratings and review counts are as published on 16 September 2026, with review counts shown in the bands the platform displays.
| Clinic | District | Listings | Published span | Listings stating a quantity | Rating (reviews) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Reverse Clinic Gangnam | Seocho-gu | 32 | ₩8,900–₩2,200,000 | 10 of 32 | 4.8 (50+) |
| DIORE Clinic | Gangnam-gu | 13 | ₩29,000–₩1,590,000 | 2 of 13 | 4.8 (400+) |
| ZERO Clinic | Gangnam-gu | 13 | ₩43,000–₩690,000 | 2 of 13 | 4.9 (50+) |
| SECRET CLINIC | Gangnam-gu | 11 | ₩10,890–₩2,057,000 | 6 of 11 | 5.0 (50+) |
| CELLIN Clinic Gangnam | Seocho-gu | 11 | ₩33,000–₩770,000 | 0 of 11 | 4.8 (200+) |
| GD Clinic | Seocho-gu | 9 | ₩44,000–₩619,000 | 0 of 9 | 4.9 (50+) |
| GU Clinic Gangnam Branch | Seocho-gu | 8 | ₩29,000–₩1,990,000 | 4 of 8 | 4.9 (10,000+) |
| Dr. Evers Gangnam Branch | Gangnam-gu | 8 | ₩99,000–₩940,000 | 5 of 8 | 4.8 (800+) |
| WJ Wonjin Plastic Surgery Clinic | Seocho-gu | 8 | ₩65,000–₩260,000 | 0 of 8 | 4.6 (400+) |
| Allliting Plastic Surgery | Gangnam-gu | 8 | ₩88,000–₩1,375,000 | 8 of 8 | 4.7 (300+) |
| Abijou Clinic Gangnam | Seocho-gu | 7 | ₩15,000–₩89,000 | 0 of 7 | 4.9 (1,500+) |
| UH CELL Clinic Gangnam | Gangnam-gu | 5 | ₩490,000–₩1,790,000 | 5 of 5 | 4.9 (1,500+) |
| HYUNDAIMIHAK Plastic Surgery | Gangnam-gu | 4 | ₩55,000–₩469,000 | 2 of 4 | 4.6 (10+) |
| AB Clinic | Seocho-gu | 1 | ₩99,000 | 0 of 1 | 4.9 (900+) |
Seven of the fourteen are in Seocho-gu and seven in Gangnam-gu. Six of them sit on Gangnam-daero itself, and the district line runs down that road, which is why the same street appears on both sides of the table. The rest are on Seocho-daero 77-gil and 73-gil near Sinnonhyeon Station, or on Teheran-ro, Dosan-daero and in Nonhyeon-dong by Sinsa Station. Counts per clinic run from one listing to 32, so a clinic’s store page is not a complete menu. A clinic with one published listing is not a clinic with one treatment.
The right-hand columns are worth more than the prices.
- The “listings stating a quantity” column adds to 44 — the same 44 as the opening paragraph, counted clinic by clinic instead of in total. The remaining 94 publish a price with no dose attached.
- Five of the fourteen state a quantity on none of their listings — Abijou, CELLIN, GD Clinic, WJ Wonjin and AB Clinic. Every price they publish is an opening figure by definition.
- Two state it on every listing — Allliting (8 of 8) and UH CELL (5 of 5). Their prices look high in the table above precisely because they are quoting a full dose rather than an entry point. UH CELL publishes no listing below ₩490,000. All five are named multi-device courses.
GU Clinic Gangnam Branch is the clearest single illustration of how far a starting price travels. Eight listings, ₩29,000 to ₩1,990,000 — a 69-fold span inside one clinic, with four of the eight naming their dose.
| GU Clinic listing | Published price | Quantity stated |
|---|---|---|
| GU Clinic Premium Skin Solutions | ₩29,000 | — |
| ulblanc Skin Booster Infusion | ₩49,000 | — |
| Shurink Universe 600 shots | ₩239,000 | 600 shots |
| Filorga 135 + Potenza pumping tip | ₩300,000 | — |
| Titanium Lifting 80kJ | ₩800,000 | 80 kJ |
| ONDA Lifting | ₩890,000 | — |
| Ultherapy Prime 300 shots | ₩1,590,000 | 300 shots |
| Thermage FLX 600 shots | ₩1,990,000 | 600 shots |
It is also the most reviewed clinic in this set by a wide margin: rating 4.9, reviews in the 10,000+ band, Seocho-gu. And it is one of six of the fourteen whose listing shows Sunday hours — weekdays 10:30–21:00, Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays 10:30–19:00.
The same device, clinic by clinic
This is where the “is it real?” question is actually answered. Nine named devices appear at more than one of these fourteen clinics, and the spread is a quantity difference the listing usually does not disclose, not a discount war.
| Device | Listings in this set | Lowest → highest | Spread | How many state the dose |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ONDA | 7 | ₩55,000 (HYUNDAIMIHAK) → ₩890,000 (GU Clinic) | 16.2x | 2 of 7 |
| Shurink / Shurink Universe | 5 | ₩49,000 (DIORE, with CoolSoniq) → ₩239,000 (GU Clinic, 600 shots) | 4.9x | 1 of 5 |
| Potenza | 5 | ₩99,000 (Dr. Evers, RF tip) → ₩260,000 (WJ Wonjin) | 2.6x | 1 of 5 |
| Ultherapy / Ulthera Prime | 6 | ₩268,000 (Dr. Evers, 100 shots) → ₩1,590,000 (GU Clinic, 300 shots) | 5.9x | 6 of 6 |
| Thermage FLX | 5 | ₩469,000 (HYUNDAIMIHAK, 100 shots) → ₩2,200,000 (Reverse, 600 shots) | 4.7x | 5 of 5 |
| Titanium lifting | 3 | ₩100,000 (ZERO Clinic) → ₩1,250,000 (Allliting Plastic Surgery, 80 kJ) | 12.5x | 2 of 3 |
| Volnewmer | 3 | ₩99,000 (Reverse, 100 shots) → ₩825,000 (Reverse, full face) | 8.3x | 1 of 3 |
| Rejuran Healer 2cc | 3 | ₩198,000 (ZERO) → ₩385,000 (Allliting) | 1.9x | 3 of 3 |
| Elravie Re2O | 4 | ₩605,000 (ZERO, 6cc) → ₩750,000 (SECRET, 6cc + AI analysis) | 1.2x | 2 of 4 |
Read the last two columns together and the rule falls out: the more listings state the dose, the narrower the spread gets. ONDA, where five of seven listings say nothing about joules, spans 16x; Rejuran Healer 2cc, where all three name the same 2cc, spans 1.9x. Elravie Re2O at a stated 6cc spans 1.2x.
Identical spec, different clinic — the only comparison that holds
Take the two devices most people arrive already asking for, Thermage FLX and Ultherapy, and keep only the listings that name a shot count. Eleven remain, at six clinics. Divide by the shots. What comes out is the one figure comparable across clinics, and the one to carry into a consultation.
| Treatment at a stated dose | Clinic | Published price | Per shot / per cc |
|---|---|---|---|
| Thermage FLX, 600 shots | GU Clinic Gangnam Branch | ₩1,990,000 | ₩3,317 per shot |
| Thermage FLX, 600 shots | SECRET CLINIC (+ AI 3D analysis) | ₩2,057,000 | ₩3,428 per shot |
| Thermage FLX, 600 shots | Reverse Clinic Gangnam | ₩2,200,000 | ₩3,667 per shot |
| Thermage FLX, 300 shots | Dr. Evers Gangnam Branch | ₩940,000 | ₩3,133 per shot |
| Thermage FLX, 100 shots | HYUNDAIMIHAK Plastic Surgery | ₩469,000 | ₩4,690 per shot |
| Ultherapy Prime, 300 shots | SECRET CLINIC (+ AI 3D analysis) | ₩1,000,000 | ₩3,333 per shot |
| Ultherapy Prime, 300 shots | Reverse Clinic Gangnam | ₩1,089,000 | ₩3,630 per shot |
| Ultherapy Prime, 300 shots | GU Clinic Gangnam Branch | ₩1,590,000 | ₩5,300 per shot |
| Ultherapy / Ulthera, 100 shots | Dr. Evers Gangnam Branch | ₩268,000 | ₩2,680 per shot |
| Ultherapy / Ulthera, 100 shots | Allliting Plastic Surgery | ₩420,000 | ₩4,200 per shot |
| Ultherapy Prime, 100 shots | HYUNDAIMIHAK Plastic Surgery | ₩469,000 | ₩4,690 per shot |
- Buying the larger block is usually cheaper per shot, but not always — Thermage FLX falls from ₩4,690 per shot at 100 shots to about ₩3,100–₩3,700 at 300 and 600. Ultherapy does the opposite at one clinic. Dr. Evers is the cheapest per shot of the eleven rows here, at ₩2,680 for a 100-shot block, while GU Clinic’s 300-shot block is the dearest at ₩5,300.
- At the same dose the clinics land within a fifth of each other. All three 600-shot Thermage listings sit between ₩3,317 and ₩3,667 per shot — an 11 per cent spread across the whole set. Once the quantity is fixed, Gangnam prices are far more uniform than the raw range suggests.
The same holds on the injectable side, at a smaller scale. Rejuran Healer 2cc is ₩198,000 at ZERO Clinic, ₩275,000 at Reverse Clinic Gangnam and ₩385,000 at Allliting — ₩99,000, ₩137,500 and ₩192,500 per cc for an identically specified product, the widest like-for-like gap in the set at 1.9x.
What “per unit” means, treatment by treatment
Toxin is priced per area (forehead, glabella, crow’s feet) or per unit of product, so a ₩15,000 headline is one area with a Korean brand. Three areas, an imported brand and a touch-up at two weeks is a different number. None of the nine toxin listings in this set states a unit count. The top of the band is ₩132,000, a body slimming toxin at Reverse Clinic Gangnam, twelve times the bottom.
Boosters are priced per cc or per vial, and the volume is the number that moves. Of the 26 booster listings, the twelve that name a volume range from 1cc to 6cc, which is a sixfold difference before any price is compared. A course is normally three or four sessions. Multiply again.
Lifting devices are priced per shot (HIFU) or per joule (RF), and a “300 shots” headline covers part of the face. A full-face treatment may be 600–900 shots. The device generation (Ulthera vs Ulthera Prime, Thermage vs FLX) also changes the rate — how to check the device is genuine: Thermage authenticity, Ulthera checklist.
Packages are the category to read hardest. Eighteen listings bundle two to four treatments, and all five of UH CELL’s do — ₩990,000 buys OligioX 300 shots, V-RO 300 shots, Skinvive 1cc and Lilied 5cc together. Bundles are the one place where the published number is more likely to be the whole number. The contents are enumerated.
Skin-care programmes are the other category where the listed price is usually the bill, and none of the seven states a session count. The band tops out at ₩619,000 only because GD Clinic’s dearest listing stacks a peel, an exosome, an RF microneedling pass and an ultrasound device into one visit.
The four add-ons that appear at checkout
- Anaesthetic cream — sometimes included, sometimes charged. None of the 138 listings publishes a price for it. Ask when you book.
- Post-treatment mask or LED — recommended at the end, and declining is fine. Where it is bundled, the listing says so (SECRET’s ₩178,000 Rejuran trial names its modeling pack).
- VAT — quoted prices include it, and the refund programme for cosmetic medical procedures ended on 31 December 2025, so there is nothing to claim back: Is K-beauty still tax-free?
- Card surcharge or cash discount — ask. Do not pay to a personal account.
The one question
“Is this the total for the treatment you are recommending, and how many shots, cc or joules does it include?” Ask it in writing before treatment. In seven listings out of ten the published price cannot answer it for you, and the whole spread in every table above comes from that gap. How to read a Korean clinic menu line by line: decoding the menu.
What is counted here, and what is not
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Source | Published listings on K-Beauty Station, read 16 September 2026 |
| Scope | 138 non-surgical listings at the 14 Gangnam-gu and Seocho-gu clinics whose published menu contains no surgery. Selected by published address and published menu, not by the platform’s category and area tags — so this is not the platform’s set of 12 Gangnam skin clinics |
| Excluded | Surgical listings and the clinics that publish them; dental, ophthalmic and health-screening listings; clinics outside Gangnam-gu and Seocho-gu; and one clinic, Le Well Clinic, that publishes no street address and so cannot be placed in either district |
| Prices | As published, VAT inclusive, in Korean won. Event and first-visit prices are marked as such in the tables |
| Ratings and reviews | From the same listings on the same date; review counts shown in the bands the platform displays, not as exact figures |
| Clinic names | As published on the platform, shortened only where the listing carries a branch suffix (for example “Abijou Clinic Gangnam Main building” → Abijou Clinic Gangnam) |
| Not covered | Treatment outcomes, clinical suitability, evaluations of medical staff, and any price quoted only at consultation |
Prices and menus change at each clinic’s discretion. A listing can be withdrawn or re-priced without notice. Confirm the figure and the quantity with the clinic before you travel.
FAQ
What is the cheapest published skin treatment in Gangnam?
Of the 138 listings covered here, the lowest published price is ₩8,900 — a Reverse Clinic Gangnam special-offer event that does not name the treatment. The cheapest listing that names one is a ₩10,890 toxin deal at SECRET CLINIC, and the cheapest standing (non-event) toxin listing is ₩15,000 at Abijou Clinic Gangnam. Below ₩30,000 you are always looking at one area, one session or a trial.
Are event prices real?
Yes, for the quantity stated — and that is the catch. Only 44 of the 138 listings state a quantity (shots, cc, joules, pulses, vials or threads) in the listing itself; the other 94 give a price with no dose attached. An event price is real for whatever the consultation defines as one session, so ask what that is before you accept it.
Why can the same device cost sixteen times more at one clinic than another?
Because the listings are not describing the same amount of treatment. ONDA lifting appears seven times across these 14 clinics, from ₩55,000 at HYUNDAIMIHAK Plastic Surgery to ₩890,000 at GU Clinic Gangnam Branch — a 16x spread — and only two of those seven listings say how many joules are included. Where both sides do state the dose, the spread collapses: Thermage FLX 600 shots runs ₩1,990,000 to ₩2,200,000 at three clinics, a gap of 11 per cent.
Which clinic publishes the widest price range?
Reverse Clinic Gangnam, whose 32 listings run from ₩8,900 to ₩2,200,000 — both the cheapest and the most expensive listing in this guide. GU Clinic Gangnam Branch shows almost the same top and bottom in only eight listings, ₩29,000 to ₩1,990,000, a 69-fold range. A single clinic spanning two orders of magnitude is normal here, which is why a clinic cannot usefully be called cheap or expensive.
Can I get a quote before I arrive?
A quote for a starting quantity, yes — most of these clinics will confirm the listed price and what it includes by message. The final number waits for the consultation, because the number of areas, shots or cc is decided there.
Where are these prices from?
The 138 non-surgical listings published by the 14 Gangnam-gu and Seocho-gu clinics on K-Beauty Station, read from the platform on 16 September 2026. Ratings and review counts come from the same listings on the same date; review counts are shown in the bands the site displays.
