The cost of droopy eyelid surgery (ptosis correction) in South Korea typically ranges from $1,400 to $3,700. Prices vary depending on the surgeon’s experience, whether the procedure is performed on one or both eyelids, and the surgical technique used (external or internal approach). In the United States, the average cost is $5,300 (per ASPS). This means droopy eyelid surgery in South Korea is about 53% less than in the U.S.
Korean clinics usually include the surgeon’s fee, pre-op consultation, local anesthesia, operating room use, post-op medications, and one or two follow-up visits. In the U.S., the price often covers only the surgeon’s fee, with anesthesia, facility, and medications billed separately. Always confirm exactly what’s included with your chosen clinic.
