Filler Cost in Gangnam — Price Tiers by Product and Area
The same "1cc of filler" is advertised anywhere from ₩90,000 to over ₩700,000 in Gangnam. Here's the price structure behind that spread, so you can read any ad in ten seconds.
Each median is the midpoint of its advertised tier, not a survey of quoted totals. We do not collect quotes from clinics and we take no commissions.
How much does filler cost in Gangnam?
Publicly advertised 2026 prices split cleanly by product origin. Domestic Korean hyaluronic-acid fillers dominate the value tier; imported brands carry a premium that can be several multiples for the same 1cc. Premium Cheongdam and Apgujeong clinics price above Gangnam Station and chain clinics for the same product. These are market ranges, not any single clinic's price list.
Filler price tiers in Gangnam (2026, per 1cc)

| Imported brand | ₩300,000–700,000 | Juvederm, Restylane, Belotero |
| Under-eye / nose (customized) | ₩400,000–700,000+ | Technique-sensitive areas; injector skill priced in |

What the headline price often excludes
| Add-on | Typical range |
|---|---|
| Numbing cream | Free–₩30,000 |
| Design / consultation fee | Free–₩50,000 |
| Dissolver (hyaluronidase) | ₩50,000–150,000 |
| VAT | Included, or +10% on top |
Why the same "filler" costs so differently
A cheap headline price is not automatically bad — it is usually just a domestic product or a partial syringe. The red flag is a price with no product name attached. That is your first question at any consultation.
Budgeting by area
Rough all-in planning figures for a single area in Gangnam, combining product and typical volumes: lips 150,000–500,000 (see the dedicated lip filler cost guide); chin 200,000–500,000; nasolabial folds 200,000–600,000 (often needs 2cc); under-eye 400,000–700,000; nose 400,000–700,000+. Mobile areas metabolize filler faster, so lips need maintenance sooner than chin or jaw.
Choose by concern, not by ranking
Among the Gangnam clinics we have profiled for injectables:
1. Design-led shaping (nose, chin, whole-face balance) — Brandnew Clinic (Cheongdam)
Treats the face as one composition rather than a list of areas — the fit when your goal is proportion, not just volume.
2. Lips as the main event — Gold J Clinic (Seolleung)
Runs lip filler as a named signature (Touch-Up Kiss) with 2,700+ Naver reviews — the deepest review base on our list.
3. Conservative dosing, "less is more" — PIND Dermatology (Apgujeong)
The director publishes under his own name on when to say no to more filler — the fit if overfilling worries you.
4. One doctor start to finish — BLS Clinic (Cheongdam)
Single-doctor private flow: the person who consults you injects you. Worth it for technique-sensitive areas.

Filler cost in Korea — FAQ
How much does filler cost in Gangnam, Seoul?
Domestic Korean HA filler runs roughly 150,000–300,000 KRW per cc (about USD 110–220); imported brands (Juvederm, Restylane, Belotero) 300,000–700,000 KRW. Under-eye and nose are quoted higher, often 400,000–700,000+. Confirm the all-in total including VAT, numbing and design fee.
Why is some filler in Korea so cheap?
Very low prices usually mean a domestic product, a partial syringe (0.5cc), a first-visit teaser, or a non-director injector. None are automatically bad — but if the ad doesn't name the product and volume, ask before booking.
Is domestic Korean filler safe?
Domestic Korean HA fillers are KFDA-approved, widely used and effective for most areas. Imported brands cost several times more; some patients prefer them for consistency. Know which product you're getting rather than assuming imported is always necessary.
Which filler areas cost more and why?
Under-eye (tear trough) and nose — the most technique-sensitive areas — usually 400,000–700,000+ KRW, because vascular anatomy knowledge matters most there. These are the areas where paying for an experienced injector is most justified.
What does a Gangnam filler price usually exclude?
VAT (10%), numbing cream, a design fee, and hyaluronidase if a correction is needed. The gap between banner price and final total is commonly ₩50,000–150,000 — ask for the all-in figure in writing.
How long does hyaluronic acid filler last?
Roughly 6–18 months depending on product, area and metabolism. Mobile areas like lips break down faster. Plan for maintenance rather than treating the first price as one-time.
What is the median filler price per cc in Gangnam as of September 2026?
As of September 2026, domestic hyaluronic-acid filler in Gangnam is advertised at ₩150,000–₩300,000 per 1cc (midpoint about ₩225,000, USD 167), and imported brands such as Juvederm or Restylane at ₩300,000–₩700,000 per 1cc (midpoint about ₩500,000, USD 370). The figures are compiled from publicly advertised Gangnam clinic pricing, not from quotes collected from clinics.

Hyaluronic-acid dermal fillers are not lightly regulated products. In the United States they sit in the FDA's highest device class and clear through Premarket Approval — which the FDA defines as "the FDA process of scientific and regulatory review to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Class III medical devices", the class reserved for devices that "present a potential, unreasonable risk of illness or injury". In Korea the same category is regulated by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety under the Medical Device Act, where Class III and IV devices are approved by MFDS itself rather than certified by a delegated body. The practical consequence for a patient is simple: a named, boxed, approval-carrying product is a checkable thing, and an unnamed "premium filler" is not.
