How much do lip fillers cost in Seoul at Dear Clinic?
Per cubic centimetre, on the specialty-area line. The Chaeum, the Korean family stocked here, is listed at ₩300,000 (≈ $215) per cc; any imported family is listed at ₩500,000 (≈ $355) per cc. Your total is that unit rate multiplied by the quantity written at your diagnosis, and it is approved before a syringe is opened.
Why are lips priced higher than a general facial area?
Because the mouth is rated as a specialty area on this card. The tissue is dense and richly supplied, the zone never stops moving, and the margin for error along a border is small, so placement takes longer and demands more precision than a broad plane does. The rating attaches to the region, and it is the region that sets the line.
Is the imported gel worth the difference in rate?
It depends on what your mouth needs, which is a clinical question before it is a budget one. Cross-linked hyaluronic acid products differ measurably in firmness, cohesivity and behaviour under load, and those properties are matched to the design. The director explains which family the reading points to and what that does to the figure, and the decision is then yours.
When would the standard per-cc rate apply to my lip plan?
Where the director determines that the plan belongs on the general facial card instead of the specialty group. In that case the standard lines are what you are quoted: ₩350,000 (≈ $250) per cc for Restylane and ₩400,000 (≈ $285) per cc for Juvederm. Which rating governs your plan is confirmed at the consultation, before anything is agreed.
How many cc will my lips need?
No number can be given responsibly before the mouth is measured. The plan is written zone by zone off the EVE Muse reading in tenths of a cubic centimetre, and the two halves of the same mouth frequently take different amounts. What can be promised is the method: you see the quantity and the arithmetic before you agree to either.
Is there a minimum charge for a small lip top-up?
Billing follows the cubic centimetre, so a fraction of a cc placed at a review is quoted as that fraction. Part of an earlier design is usually still present when the outline starts to relax, which is exactly why a correction is normally much smaller than a first design and reads that way on the quote.
Does the quote change if the two sides need different amounts?
The quote is built from the tenths actually placed, so asymmetric designs are priced on their real total rather than rounded to a whole syringe. Faces are asymmetrical and mouths especially so; writing the halves separately is what keeps the shape balanced, and the arithmetic simply follows the plan.
What is not covered by the published lip rate?
The rate is for gel placed, per cubic centimetre. A consultation or a later review appointment is discussed with you directly at the diagnosis. Dissolving existing filler with a hyaluronidase enzyme injection is a separate procedure and is quoted in its own right, and any other zone treated on the same day appears on its own line of the card.
Do international patients pay a different price for lip filler?
No. One published card applies to Korean residents and to visiting patients alike. Consultation is available in English, the quantity and the total are fixed before treatment begins, and the figure you approve is traceable to the cubic centimetres written on your plan.
Should I budget for a repeat appointment?
Hyaluronic acid is resorbable, so a lip design softens gradually and most patients return at some point. This page publishes no interval, because the family, the quantity, the layer and your own turnover rate all move it. Plan for a top-up as a smaller purchase than the first design, and let the review decide when.
Can I get a firm quote before I travel to Seoul?
You can get the unit rates, which are published above and do not change on arrival. The quantity is the part that needs a mouth in front of a director, so the total is finalised at the diagnosis on the day. Send photographs and what you want the mouth to do, and the consultation team will set expectations in English before you book flights.
