The cost of vertebral plastic in South Korea typically ranges from $7,000 to $8,400. Prices depend on the clinic, the surgeon’s experience, and the complexity of the procedure—such as the number of vertebrae treated or the use of advanced materials. In the United States, the average cost is $12,300 (per NASS). This means vertebral plastic in South Korea is about 37% less than in the U.S.
South Korean clinics usually include the initial consultation, pre-op blood tests, post-op medication, follow-up consultations, English-speaking staff, personalized treatment plans, post-op care instructions, meals during visits, and 24/7 support. In the U.S., the price often covers only the procedure itself, with separate charges for tests, medications, and follow-ups. Always confirm exactly what’s included at each clinic.
