buyit Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Hey, I consulted 10 clinics in March 2016 and I got quoted for Cheekbone reduction 7,5m KRW and for nose surgery 7m KRW on average. This year I messaged the same clinics (view, gng, april 31, darps..) and I got quoted for Cheekbone reduction 4,5-5m KRW and for nose surgery 5m KRW on average. Is it possible that surgery prices are getting cheaper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buyit Posted September 8, 2017 Author Share Posted September 8, 2017 thanks, do you know which months are the best to travel to seoul? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mintwrisr Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 If you're talking for plastic surgery, it would be best to avoid the summer and winter breaks which are July-August and December-Febuary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kotrad Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Yes, I would add that you should probably also avoid Korean public holidays and Chinese New Year. The latter is because most Chinese visitors will go to Korea for PS then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladybugz Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 IMO, they have actually gotten a lot more expensive since the last time I was in Seoul (2013). I've noticed that nearly everything is significantly more expensive this time around, from fillers to chin implants, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsfhh Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 i think last year the korean government exclude the tax for foreigners on plastci surgery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kotrad Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 This is correct, but actually it is also the case this year till Dec, so it will not be the cause for any "lower prices". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamle_o Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 So from Jan 2018, will the tax come back on foreigners again? About OP, I think the price of zygoma reduction to be cheaper because this is for quick/safe zygoma reduction :-S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpsa Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 It has been extended for a couple of years now, so good chance it will be extended as well in 2008. Of course there is no guarantee, but as Korea wants to establish itself as the go to Asian medical hub it would be strange if it wouldn't be extended. Just check the message board in visitmedicalkorea as if it is extended you can find it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backtoblack18 Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Gotten more expensive imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpsa Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Agree, as if you go in peak PS periods you logically can expect that less discount will tend to be given, since they have enough business. So if you can go during "less busy" periods it would be beneficial! Also I would imagine they have more time for you as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
