Ulthera Prime prices at Dernia
Ultherapy is priced by lines. Each line is a row of tiny focused ultrasound points placed at a set depth, from the SMAS layer that supports the face up to the deeper dermis. More lines mean more coverage and more depths treated. These are the 2026 plans for Ulthera Prime in Myeongdong.
| Plan | Typical coverage | Price (KRW) |
|---|---|---|
| 100 lines | One target area, such as the brows or under the chin | ₩390,000 |
| 300 lines | Lower face and jawline | ₩1,090,000 |
| 400 lines | Full face | ₩1,390,000 |
| 600 lines | Full face, under the chin and neck | ₩1,990,000 |
Prices are in Korean won (KRW), exclude 10% VAT, and are confirmed at your consultation.
What's included
- An English consultation with a licensed medical doctor, who maps where your face needs lift
- Treatment with a genuine Ulthera Prime system and transducers, using real-time imaging to place each line
- Topical numbing cream, with comfort adjusted during treatment
- Post-treatment soothing and written aftercare
What affects the price
Line count drives the price. A jawline that has started to soften may need 300 lines, while a full lift across the cheeks, jaw and brow usually needs about 400. Adding the neck and under-chin brings most people to around 600. Thicker or heavier tissue can need more lines at the deep 4.5 mm depth. Your doctor may also suggest fewer lines combined with radiofrequency, which tightens the skin surface that ultrasound does not fully address.
How many sessions you need and the cost of a full course
One session is the standard plan. Some lift appears early, and the result usually peaks at two to three months as new collagen forms. Many people repeat Ultherapy roughly once a year, so a full-face plan costs about ₩1,390,000 per year before VAT. Follow the stages in the Ulthera Prime results timeline and read our medical team's Ulthera Prime review.
Because Ultherapy is a single visit with little or no downtime, it suits a short stay in Seoul. Mild swelling or tenderness along the jaw can last a few days, so book it early in your trip rather than the day before an important event. Flying afterward is generally fine.
How to compare Ulthera prices between clinics
In Korea, the word ulthera is sometimes used loosely for any HIFU device. Ask whether the clinic uses a genuine Ulthera system from Merz, how many lines are included and at which depths. A price for 300 lines of another HIFU device is not the same product. Our guide to shots, lines and cc explains how to read these quotes.
VAT and payment
Every price here excludes 10% VAT, so the 100-line plan comes to ₩429,000 with VAT. The tourist VAT refund on cosmetic procedures ended on January 1, 2026, and the tax is no longer refundable at departure. See our payment and tax page for how to pay.
Alternatives at different budgets
- Shurink Universe price — from ₩149,000 (300 shots): Korean HIFU for affordable contouring, with results that last a shorter time.
- Titanium Lifting price — from ₩450,000 (full face): diode laser lifting with no downtime and an instant glow.
- Thermage FLX price — from ₩990,000 (300 shots, face): radiofrequency skin tightening that pairs well with Ulthera.
