Why Gangnam

Gangnam-gu holds the largest cluster of plastic surgery clinics in Korea. Competition between clinics on the same block keeps prices visible and turnaround times short, and most mid-size clinics here keep at least one English-speaking coordinator on staff. Gangnam Station Exit 10 through Sinnonhyeon is the corridor to know: high-rise buildings where floors 2 through 12 are all clinics.

The ranges below are the Seoul-wide figures we publish for chin & submental liposuction. Gangnam corridor pricing tracks these figures closely. Quoted prices in Korea normally include anesthesia and facility use, which are billed separately in many other markets, so compare the all-in figure rather than the surgeon's fee alone.

Planning a visit to Gangnam

12 clinics on this site list an address in Gangnam, and the district centres on Gangnam Station, Sinnonhyeon Station. Clinics here sit within a few blocks of each other, so booking two consultations on the same day is realistic. Recovery for chin & submental liposuction runs to about 3 to 5 days before desk work, so choose accommodation you can reach without a long transfer, and book the follow-up appointment before you leave the clinic rather than trying to arrange it later. Gangnam-gu holds the largest cluster of plastic surgery clinics in Korea. Competition between clinics on the same block keeps prices visible and turnaround times short, and most mid-size clinics here keep at least one English-speaking coordinator on staff.

Questions to ask a Gangnam clinic

Three questions separate a clinic worth a deposit from one worth leaving. Ask whether the surgeon who consults is the surgeon who operates, and get the answer in writing. Ask for an itemised quote that splits the surgeon's fee, anesthesia, facility use and follow-up visits. Ask what the revision policy covers, what window it runs for, and what you would still pay. A clinic that answers all three concretely is doing the work; a clinic that answers with reassurance is selling.
